How far is too far?

[Freebirdie]

Do you think abusers ever think reconciliation is not possible. I’m talking you’re battling them in more ways than one, haven’t been speaking directly and then suddenly they’re sending you jokes and coming across as this really amicable and easy going person.

Do they ever think things have gone too far or will they always try to reel you back in after everything

Hi Freebirdie
I can only speak from personal experience.
But my stbx has told my kids that he understands that I want a divorce, but he just doesn’t understand why. I can’t see us getting any further than this. X*x

We’ve been seperated a while, had some protective measures in place, was failed by services due to protect us, and wonder if after all of it, there’s still a slither of hope he has for us

My ex seemed to be holding onto some kind of hope for a long time – but he also seems to have completely reinvented the past as well. His version of the truth is very different from my version of the truth. I’ve don’t bother to correct him anymore.

He’s an alcoholic so I don’t know if he’s brain damaged or in denial or both?

Good luck x*x

[Freebirdie]

The problem is that certain things have enabled him, so yes he has also rewritten history too. I think they are perhaps delusional
