I was lamenting in my Live Journal that I didn't understand why I kept feeling sorry for my ex, even though he's been cruel to me for years. I was joking to...
My partner said this to me too and I had-and still have-conflicting emotions about it. On one hand abuse is not love so he truly was not loving me when he was...
This certainly is healing. Congratulate yourself for taking such courageous steps. Being alone is not easy after leaving a relationship but it is a time to...
My former partner was often misplacing items. I know I've read-in the material about narcissism-this is common-even though I can't remember why. When I think...
Hi ladies. I need your support, BADLY. I've successfully kept my former abuser out of my life for one week, and I feel better than ever. About 10 minutes ago,...
I think I can sort of relate to that....like, not in the sense that he tells me hes got alot of stuff to do, but with gifts. Like, i saw this razr phone in his...
Hey Girls, I wanted to post this to see if maybe some of you would be interested in getting together if any of us are in the same area. I think it would be so...

Since he does it ALL the time you need to stop believing anything he says. Dr. Phil answered a question one time. The question was "how can I tell if she is...
AHHHH!!!! Finally you have become that "bitch" that we never wanted to be. It's about time.... Fear of being that "bitch" has made us do things sane, self...

Thanks, Marylin! Now that the squall has passed, I feel so good that I didn't say anything to him! I feel liberated, and proud that I honored my commitment...
It sounds like simple passive aggression to me. Guaranteed to drive you nuts, but if you say anything about it, it makes YOU look like the one with the...
This is hard...so hard to have so many feelings locked up inside, so many things I want to scream and lash out about, so many things that I want to just break...
