I have my good days and my bad days. I work as a reporter, so I have to constantly talk to new people all of the time. Sometimes I'm having a bad day and I just feel awkward. I just don't want to be around anyone and I struggle to make a good connections. Most of the time I'm pretty good and I...

Yeah, I think it's a guy thing. He'll play fight with me, too.

He probably could.

I'm embarrassed to post this, but my husband will sometimes put me in chokeholds when I make a joke he doesn't like or when I push him away from grinding on me while making breakfast or something. He used to do it when I would act erratically from memories of past abuse. Anyways, he doesn't do...

I'm sorry. It's very frustrating. I know.

I think so. I don't completely understand to be honest.

Forgive the typos. I'm a bit drunk right now.

I'll be honest. I hate sex with my husband. I'm a survivor of rape and sexual assault and abuse. I loved sex with my abusive ex, but I agree sex with my husband. I have five drunk to have sex with him. It feels awful. I feel like I want to get a divorce so he could find someone better. I'm not...

I just started therapy and I'm wondering what a healthy relationship looks like, too. My husband and I both have had a lot of ups and downs, but he's always been very controlling by nature and after talking to a friend (she's Christian) about submission it kind of made sense to me. I don't think...

Thank you. It's a really hard step, but ultimately I think taking that power and control back is exactly what we need to do. It helps so much. ❤️

Thanks guys. I'll figure it out. I know this sounds like a dumb thing to say, but I really think my marriage is salvable. I only mentioned the bad things here because I was really upset over something. He's done a lot of good, too. I don't know of many guys who would put up with my panic...

I finally saw a therapist today after many years of repressed memories. It was my first session and we focused on a memory that recently came into light (which pushed me to meet her). It was a very pleasant meeting because she gave me some clarity to what happened the night I was suppose to go...

I re-read everything you all have said. I'm trying to get it through my head to leave. I really am. I was thinking of all the bad things he's done, but I can't remember a few things he did when I was pregnant for example (I just remember crying all the time and getting into fights), or even a...

Do you really think he would hurt my daughter?

That's insane! What a crazy person! I can't believe he actually did that and I'm so glad you woke up and told your mom and called 911. I don't see how hurting someone you care can be called love. I never understood the whole, "If I can't have her/him then no one can" idea. It's insanely stupid...
