Takeaway. And it’s honestly just been such a significant moment. We don’t live together and he called me when I got in from work. I mentioned I’d forgotten to get the only meal I had out of the freezer (pay day is tomorrow) and he asked what I’d like and said he’d send me a takeaway.

During lockdown, I wasn’t eligible for furlough so very skint and my abusive exP once watched me boil 2 new potatoes as a meal while he cooked a full chilli con carne for himself.

Its a small insignificant moment to my DP but to me it’s just been a moment of someone showing me they care.

Anyone else have a moment like this with a relationship after an abusive one?

OP, your post made me feel warm and fuzzy: how lovely. It can feel like a revelation when someone is kind after a cold or abusive relationship.
