Trauma Bond

3 months ago i left my toxic relationship, i went NC and thought i had been healing but i started feeling guilty i left the relationship and have been missing her. I have been thinking that if i had stayed longer maybe i could have made her change even though it felt like she was getting constantly irritated by my presence. I read somewhere that it i might be in a trauma bond, I just want to know if any other has been in a trauma bond, how they got out of it, and how long it took them.

If you can't love someone how they are and you feel the need to change them then thats not your person.

@PeachyK a narcissist will never show you their real self, the are adept at showing you what you want to see, and convincing you it is real.
