      Hi I’m new to all of this, my spelling not great eaither I’m really not the sharpest tool in the box. Making jokes is the way I deal with everything it’s not that I find it funny but what else can I do. I’ve been married for (detail removed by Moderator) years the biggest mistake of my life on 3 occasions there has been violence mostly it’s emotional abuse I think it’s emotional abuse.

      Hi Lulabell,

      It’s good to see you posting, don’t worry about spelling, we will understand and if we don’t, we will ask what you mean 🙂

      It sounds like you are having a hard time, this forum is a safe place for you to talk about it if you would like to. Abuse whether emotional or physical is horrible to endure. There are so many different types of abuse and if he has been violent with you on 3 occasions already, I wouldn’t be surprised if you are indeed also subjected to emotional abuse. No matter what type of abuse, it is never your fault.

      You can also talk to Women’s Aid, they have a 24 hour hotline so when it’s most convenient for you, you can give them a call – their number is on the top of this page. They can also help you talk through the options you have, if you feel your marriage was a mistake, there are ways out of it.

      HI Lulabell,

      The blue box is a bug, I think they are working on fixing it. I’m not quite sure if there is any work around, but you can always type up your message into a notepad / memopad on your device and then copy paste it onto here. Scrolling should help with reading our responses but yea, it is annoying so hopefully it will be fixed soon.
