This is an important point, maybe the only important point, and it's about boundaries!That wouldn’t be right. Just running.
We aren’t gonna run. We’re going to leave. But not run.
Take the important paperwork with you. Clothes, toiletries, meds. Go stay with someone else.
Not running from this arsehole. Leaving this arsehole. Because you’re worth it.
Keep it simple. Be gentle with yourself.
And yeah, don’t drink too much, because you’re more powerful than you think you are. And you can deal with this. You can leave. For you. Because you’re worth it.
The first time my wife backed me up and I didn't say no, was the last time.
In the schoolyard, you have to fight that first time and if you don't you'll never be able to fight enough or stop fighting. (How I wish I had)
So as many of you know because I always say this is, this is about dominance but boundaries means the same thing in this case.
You can never get back to where you should have said no because it established a pattern. This is what my whole life has been about and it's come to the forefront with a kind of stunning clarity just recently.
I'm sorry for the situation but grateful for the thread.
