ParticipantI can’t believe I finally gone and done what I’ve been dreaming of doing for months! (detail removed by moderator) Saturday night by myself and it’s heaven. I can eat what I want and watch what I Want on TV too. Didn’t know it would feel this good. Just wanted to say thank you to everyone on this forum for your strength and words of advice. I know I couldn’t have done it without you all x*x

Grateful
ParticipantWell done!
I’miss just off to start divorce proceedings this morning and I cannot stop crying. I feel I’m tearing my family apart.
A couple of weeks ago I stood in front of that charging bull and told him he was abusive. That brought him up short and he admitted he has been ( though of course he was also “abused”). Since than he has made an effort and has not been hyper-critical etc. and so it feels mean to be seeing a solicitor at a time when he is nice and I’m not living on eggshells and fearful all the time.
I really need a big hug as I want to give all you brave people I read about on this forum.
Stay strong. -

ParticipantI hope it went ok, Grateful.
Abusers always project blame. According to them, we are abusive if we stand up for ourselves.
Hope today went ok? Did you have support? X

Grateful
ParticipantThanks Serenity. Today’s meeting went well -its such a relief to finally make that decision to gto go. I went by myself but my sister kept in contact with me all day which helped, as does the support of this forum.
I expect there will be fireworks in the new year when he realises it’s all over.
I look forward to watching what I want on the TV like nevertoolate does.

ParticipantThank you all for your congratulations! However I feel like there is worse to come when I file for divorce. Completely understand how you feel Grateful, as my ex is trying to be Mr nice guy too. I consulted a solicitor before I left and she was very understanding. Said his behaviour was controlling and a judge would see that as grounds for unreasonable behaviour. Just waiting for the new year to go back to her and start the process. Am expecting fireworks then too!

ParticipantHuge hugs to lilaclady and never too late. STAY strong and remember the fireworks may be extreme and powerful but eventually they disappear. Here’s to a far better 2017. We’re so close to the finish line -just a few more steps.
