Hi Abbie,
It sounds like you’ve been through such a lot. Thank you for sharing this with us.
It’s not your fault that his behaviour, his choices, meant you needed to speak to the police. That’s his responsibility. Have you had any support other than from the police? Everything that you’re feeling is normal, it’s really common to miss an abuser when you’ve left the relationship. Part of what makes domestic abuse so confusing is that it comes from someone that you have strong feelings for and those feelings don’t simply disappear because they hurt you. I hope that sharing support here with other women who understand helps. You could also reach out to your local domestic abuse service for some ongoing support, if you’re not in touch with them already.
Take care and keep posting,
Lisa
