I have an alarming list of demands and regulations that he set on me while we were dating. Things such as they type of clothes that I wore to the limited amount of time I could spend with my friends that I have known since I was 5. Other things include calling me abusive name, constant put downs, and pretty much keeping me secluded from my friends and family. Is there anything I can do?

You can sue but the question is will it hold water in court.

The fact that he is an ex should be enough. It is possible that you could sue (you would have to find a lawyer to know for sure), but that simply continues the already rampant cycle of frivolous lawsuits in this country. Even if you win, you simply prove that money can be traded for emotions and feelings. With that as a precedent, couldn't he give you twenty bucks every time he wants to hit you as a fair trade? Chalk it up as a lesson learned and don't repeat that portion of your history.

Why are you one of those people that think suing someone for anything you can will solve the problem? You are part of the problem. What would suing do for you? Why did you just not leave him? Easier said than done but don't think suing him is the way to go- it's just ridiculous. Stop being sue happy!

No, i dont think you can sue because you always had a chance to get out of the relationship and you didnt. The best is to move on with your life and forget about the past.

The best thing you can do is to leave this guy. A controller in a relationship is very destructive. Move on..and find someone else, someone who deserves you.
As for suing..it's very costly and time consuming. Very likely it wouldn't get to first base. As I've said, move on and good luck!!

No! If I was the judge I would think that you stayed with him under those conditions for the purpose of digging some money out of him at a later date. You always had the choice to leave.

No one forced you to stay there, you could have taken yourself out of the situation at any time. Unfortunately, if you were willing to put up with all of that, no one can be blamed but yourself.
Just don't make the same mistake twice.

Sounds like you already did, but exactly why did you put up with it so long? Maybe you liked being his sub? Would you like to be tied up? Sounds to me like you let things go on for a while, a lot of people allow this to happen, how long did you?
