To those who are in bad marriages

I have been in this business for a long time as a supervisor. I have heard more than a few gruff remarks from MTs spouses while talking to the MTs on the phone - but yesterday took the cake. I was talking to an MT whose husband said something to her (yelling) while she was on the phone. I then hear a very loud smack and hear the phone crashing to the floor - then the call was disconnected.
I am an older person (40s) who has never been married. I have dated some men over the years who I felt did not treat me the way I deserved to be treated (after a while) so I dumped them. I have a very low tolerance for crap. I simply refuse to put up with it.
I really feel sorry for women who allow themselves to be abused and disrespected by their spouses and significant others. The young lady who I mentioned above did call me later - she was okay. But will she be okay the next time?
Why do women put up with this type of thing? I get lonely sometimes, but I'm happy. I would not trade peace for anything in the world. No man is worth being miserable. I will never understand it.

There are also marriages that are wonderful, yet (sm)
sometimes we tend to get selfish and think only of ourselves. My husband is the same way as the original poster's, but in every other respect, he's wonderful! I would not dream of throwing in the towel just cause he got upset when I had to work and he didn't. That's crazy. Especially if there are children are involved, they deserve both parents.
Fun topic: How do you compare with TV sitcom marriages???

We are probably most like Tim and Jill but a little bit of Raymond and Debra thrown in. LOL.
