I agree with this so much. I will never forgive my ex husband for what he did to me. I had in the past, and all it did was open the doors for him to abuse me again. He essentially took 10 years of my life from me. He was 25, and sought out a girl with low self esteem who just finishing up high school because he knew what he was doing. I found out much later, he had a pattern like that. Plus he has no remorse at all, he's a sociopath. In his warped mind, he was trying to do me a favor. I honestly believe he expects me to apologize to him.

I've been away from him so long, but all that abuse still seems like it was yesterday sometimes. I still have issues with people being physically close to me sometimes. He'll never get my forgiveness, but I really hope that one day I can get to a point where I never think of him at all. Like completely erase everything.
