Best Answer

Usually due to the fact that they live in such close personal proximity and their lives are so inter-twined. This can cause those with little self-control or anger management skills to use their partner as a way to take out their aggressions and frustrations and give them a feeling of dominance over their spouse or significant other. BTW: This goes equally for BOTH mean and women.
