What would you do if your partner was disrespecting you?

Hi reaperz, I can only tell you what I did when this event happened to me. The only way I knew I could handle it and get results was to openly, honestly tell my spouse exactly what I thought about the situation. I told him I had never asked anything of him that he wasn't already willing to give me. I had over the years demanded nothing from him but his disrespect of me had to stop. It was the one thing I demanded from him in our relationship. I could be wrong about many things and I would apologize if I did anything to offend him, but I demanded he respect me or else. Right or wrong, standing up to him like I did was a good thing. He learned it was the one thing he knew he had to work on. Respect. Besides, no one can give you what you don't require. That was 20 years ago and we're still going strong. Was it the respect issue? A portion of it was. The major issue was having the ability to be honest about it all.
