Original story
Just remember, it wasn’t all you. It isn’t all your fault. But if you continue to stay and put yourself in harms way again and again that is on you. You can be stronger you can walk away you can be on your own and you will be OK.
My goal is to continue to work on myself, mind, body, and spirit. I hope to be able to accept the affections of another man someday without flinching or pulling away. While, I continue to work on myself and holding myself accountable for my part….I also want the universe to guide me and I hope to find someone who wants to connect on a deeper more spiritual level before the physical begins.
As a domestic abuse survivor, I can tell you that our scars are not always visible. I think the emotional, verbal, and sexual abuse is sometimes worse….. because it takes longer to heal from. My ex had me so turned around, backwards, and upside down. I didn’t know whether he was coming or going and often found myself desperately wanting him to stay, like it was all my fault and I had done something wrong….., the sad part is…. I am my healthiest and happiest self every single time he left. Then just when I thought I would be, could be ok…… he’d be back agreeing to counseling or being a better dad or whatever it took . This time I hope to have the strength to not let him back in .
