I Have Been In An Abusive Relationship

It's one of those shitty traumatic things that make you think you deserve abuse for the rest of your life. Which may not be true, but I'm still sure I do. So :))))) whatever.

Well actually you do not because if you did you would still be in that relationship but something inside you told you that was enough and you got yourself out. Please go stand in front of a mirror look right at it and say to that person in the mirror that you deserve to be beaten. Chance are you would not be able to finish the sentence because your brain will take over and say No that no you do not deserve to be abused" Never ever let the abuser win. I could be wrong but were you abused growing up? If so maybe that's why you think you deserve this. Well as a victim myself I am here to tell you do not abusing someone is not love it's control and fear. Maybe you should talk to someone about this.
