Toward Guest:

If Guest rejects him, he uses guilt to manipulate them into submission.

Since they are already married, he doesn't consider the possibility of escape for a second.

It isn't even that important to him whether Guest loves him or not.

"You'll learn to love me eventually." "No other man can provide a life better than the one I give you." "Besides, you have nowhere left to go back to."
