What is going on with women who refuse to leave an abusive relationship? I am seriously starting to believe it is some sort of disorder. I don't mean to insult anyone or judge them. No one knows what someone else is going through unless they walk in their shoes. I am genuinely trying to understand. How can people help?
I had just turned 16, he was 28, need I say more :(
Took me 12 years to get out. I wish I had listened to my parents and I wish I had been more honest with them in those years as to how bad it was as they would have got me out, no one had a clue and feeling trapped is the most lonely feeling in the world.
Thank you for sharing your story. 16 wow, age is just another example of how anyone could be a victim. I don't believe it is ever the victim's fault! I am thankful you got out and are here.
Thank you 💚 it took me so long to realise how unhealthy our relationship was, I was so young and naive. I am grateful we never had kids together, he wanted to but it never felt right to me.
I now have a gorgeous family, 2 kids and a wonderful hubby.
