Post 96 – Betrayed While Vulnerable: Emotional Humiliation During Pregnancy
While approximately eight months pregnant, I experienced a moment that was supposed to bring comfort and relief during Braxton Hicks contractions.
Jeff’s mother and sisters suggested I take a bath to relax, but once I settled in, Jeff and his mother entered the bathroom and began berating me for reasons I cannot recall.
The emotional pain of this betrayal outweighed the content of their words, turning a vulnerable moment into a source of humiliation and trauma.
Tactics Breakdown – Bait and Switch Emotional Abuse
- False Comfort: Offering care or support only to exploit vulnerability
- Emotional Bait and Switch: Turning moments of relaxation into attacks
- Public Humiliation: Undermining dignity in a private, vulnerable space
- Lasting Impact: Emotional wounds deepened by betrayal during pregnancy
Protecting Vulnerability
Your moments of vulnerability deserve respect and care, not shame or abuse.
Seek safe spaces and supportive people who honor your worth and well-being.
