Some of the behaviours he demonstrates, the passive aggressive controlling etc, could be technically construed as abusive, though I personally wouldn't go that far.
The abusive husband isn't normally 6'7" dressed in a string vest and holding a can of Red Stripe, and sometimes the most damaging abuse isn't actually physical. In fact, the abusive 'husband' is very often a woman. The stereotypes in this area don't go very far tbh.

Vesuvius, could you read my post (Post number 63 on this page) Aaron is not an emotional bully, if you want an example of an emotional bully then just watch Jemma Palmer in action. And to repeat myself, I know what I am talking about.
