...may actually be worse than Storm. He's the ultimate narcissist. Its painful to watch. He blames his wife (I forget her name) for everything, including cancer, pats himself on the back for "putting up with her chemo," and is upset that she doesn't want to *beep* him. And she places herself in a position to own all of the *beep* he throws at her. This is probably a lot worse than what Storm and Karen have because I think if Karen gets punched, she'll fight back and maybe leave him. But this young lady will be in a tortuous situation for years that will damage her in places unseen. I really feel for her.

And I hate that this show or the counselors on it are not addressing it. There is nothing to "work out" when it comes to abuse. No amount of a woman changing who she is should cater to this *beep*

I'm glad I'm not in this situation.

Amber's his wife's name who had cancer! I thought they had an ideal marriage, but now I see the abuse! He is a terrible narcissist who doesn't even see how he berates and undermines the intelligence of Amber! Guilt is making her just take it unfortunately! Her story from age 16 had to be traumatic; all the more reason not to hang in a relationship that isn't working! It'll affect her children eventually and she's going to regret it for the rest of her life! 

I thought the exact same thing. Why can we see and they not and push that into the forefront?

She's as bad as he is, but I think it may be her part of the dysfunction.
