Abusive Relationship:

1#

Lived in an abusive relationship for 18 years, culminated in a suicide attempt in November 2012. In a much better place now! Still not easy, but better!

For many years I was in an abusive relationship but did not know how to get out. It took great courage to put an end to it. If I had the knowledge then many issues would have been resolved. Your blog will surely be a blessing to many!

I needed to read this tonight. God is good. I'm sitting here during a silent treatment second guessing if it really is abusive or not. Which I know it is but my mind hears what he says and how I remembered the beginning. Haha. I am delusional like he says. Living in fantasy land hoping I will wake up from this nightmare. I have saved this shortcut to my home page so I can be reminded of the truth when I am weak.

This was an eye opener.. a yr ago today I was in a emotional abusive relationship. Had no idea til now. It makes sense for why I am the way I am now. Thank you for this..it explains so much. It was never my fault. Especially the first example u put. Those were the exact words he would tell me.
Just finally finding out it was never my fault :') thank you.

Thank you, a million times, thank you. I have an appointment with an attorney in the morning and wasn't going to go because the last two days with my husband "weren't that bad" and I was "overreacting again." But with each of these signs in the article, specific memories, some from the very first date to this morning, came rushing to mind. I should have run far away after the first date when I knew something was off. But I didn't. But I can't keep trying to fix something that was never whole to begin with.
