@blu_sky I have definitely read the first few novels! Right now, I'm really loving my books a wee bit trashier. I usually skip the steamy stuff, but I love the building of new relationships and the world building. I poorly crochet!! I'm hoping to get some yarn and a hook soon. I'm dyslexic...

@staxed Thank you very much. I actually don't know how to quilt, but I've always wanted to learn. I find them so beautiful. And I've just always enjoyed sewing. Thank you again

@blu_sky Right now I've been in a huge phase of reading romance novels set in the 1800s. Lol!! I actually don't have any hobbies anymore, which is part of the reason why I left. I felt so hollow inside . My dream hobby though would be sewing or quilting. My much more realistic hobby though is...

@blu_sky I did take a step back, and stopped interacting with him. I know im not responsible for his emotions, but I feel EXTREMELY conditioned to look out for him, and to make sure he is happy, no matter what it might cost me. I know that's not healthy, but that's where I am right now ...

@drjjhj Thank you. It just stings a bit, because he never did any parenting or care of our daughter and now he wants her?? I feel like it's more him just threatening me, trying to hurt me, because I know I hurt him. Man. I am exhausted.

@frankyb That's honestly how I'm trying to look at it. I don't need to do dishes or cook for at least a week! Hopefully I can keep my kid from going nuts! But I'm trying to look at it as respite. Thank you

@drjjhj Right now I just feel exhausted and sad. Its funny what you say about the cycle of abuse because my mom was in a very abusive relationship, and I always hated that she never left. And that when my dad left my mom, that my mom was so upset by it. Honesty , her not leaving made it harder...

@urblit Thank you very much. Thats something that my mom and sister have said to Me a couple of times, that It's good leaving before our daughter gets to be too much older. She hopefully won't remember too much, or if she does, it's about how mommy and kiddo had a special room to stay in for a...

@wouldyoukindly Thank you. That helps so much. Right now, I'm just exhausted in every way you could think of.

@katrina2017 She's being sooooo Amazing so far. She's almost 4. I know we will have some rough days, having to be in quarantine for a while, but right now she's being just, wonderful.

@andrea74 That is an incredibly interesting way to look at it. He definitely doesn't care about my reactions/feelings the way I do his. I mean, he'll moan about how he always feels guilt for the things he says and does, but has never taken any real, meaningful steps to change anything.

@senseofwonder Thank you. I think I'm still processing everything. I'm definitely still worried about him, thinking about his feelings . I have the only car, so im not sure how he'll get around. I guess he will have to figure things out by himself for once.

@djack You are 100 percent right. I think I will have lots of behaviors to unlearn.

@colliefan I stopped answering him. It's just, I know he has bad aniexty. So I didn't want him to panic. I'm definitely still putting him first I guess. It's just that's what I've always done. I know I'm completely done with our relationship, and I think he is as well. I'm definitely...

@mightyworm Thank you. I'm postive that there will be more hard days ahead, but it is nice knowing I won't have to deal with hid anger and moods all the time anymore. Or at least, not so in my face.

@charl What happened was he called and I didn't take his calls. But then he texted and said he just wanted to talk to his daughter, that he had nothing to say to me. Our daughter isn't quite 4 yet and definitely is not much of a talker, especially on the phone. So I thought it would be fine for...

@lizmoshes Yeah. Ford was talking about either half days, or alternative full days, but there was quite the upset and I haven't heard anything about it recently. As a poor, single mom, I unfortunately completely rely on school or I can't work. I have no one local who can help. And I only make...

@charl Thank you. It's so hard. He's love bombing me pretty hard right now. He wants to forgive me for hurting him.

@ldingle I don't think I'd go back. Because we've been together for a while, and no matter what he always said, nothing ever changed. Plus, pretty much everything was my fault because I didn't want to have sex with him, so I don't really see much changing. You are very right that it is scary...

@littlechild1 I don't feel strong at all. Honesty reading about how other people left their abusers was VERY inspiring to me. Thank you.
