I was with him from a young age and I only left last year because I got forced out by domestic violence agency and police. It was really awful.
We're still in contact and although I really wanted to have children I'm glad I didn't, I didn't think it was the right thing to do. But I heard from him earlier and it really hurt. It's not the stereotypical thing of a left partner saying things to win you back, he just said that he had been let down by some people and missed 'us' (I could never get my head around it being DV as he was very reliable in other ways). It escalated last year when I lost my family and became introverted and he hit me. I trembled in a corner then reached out to agencies and they reacted very quickly.
I think everything will be fine and I plan to start the freedom program this month so will move on in that sense. I also want him to be fine though. Is this just not my province and I should stop fretting?
