I Have Something to Say

My truth....
I invested my life in him and his promises.... I gave him everything I had. He broke me down....making me build myself back up alone. For years he dulled my light and I was ashamed of who I was. I would beg him to love me. He would blame me for him not being able to give me his affection. I was in a very bad place when I loved him. Suicide often felt like the only way out. But my love for my kids always pulled the knife away. He would call me crazy... and a drama queen.... he would be little my suffering.
I can't love that.... ever again... it still hurts enough to make me cry.

Very sorry.you went through that. Typical pattern for an abusive husband. Luckily you were strong and won the war. There is a better, loving individual out there for you. Remember your lessons learned so as to not repeat the same mistakes. The signs are there if we look for them. Good lock and happy life to you and your kids.
