As above really. I finally LTB after 15 years of verbal, physical and emotional abuse. After a year, during which he has apparently been successfully 'working on his issues' he is swearing that he's a changed man and wants another chance. I have repeatedly said no, though I find this hard. This has resulted in lots of crying and desperate pleading from the ex. I have moved on, have a good life now, plus have met someone else who is really lovely and kind, but this is all being overshadowed by the guilt I feel at upsetting the ex and the sadness that I could make him happy again but won't be doing so. How can I lose this guilt? From what I have read the chances of him having actually changed are very low; plus I think the damage has already been done, even if he has changed now..thanks for reading.
