Some of you wonderful people might remember my previous threads. I was with a 'man' who regularly shouted at and insulted me when drunk, definitely had the makings of a drink problem, text my Dad abuse about what a terrible slut whore I am, broke a thousand promises and lied to me and lost all interest in sex despite both being in mid-20s with no health issues. Oh and drunkenly crashed my car, had us kicked out of a shared flat, was horrendous with money, many other things.
I was told to cut my losses by the MN massive and given lots of support. I finally moved out 3 weeks ago and felt utterly bereft at the loss of someone who - when not being a twat - was my best friend. I had another thread then whining and was once again given great support so thank you.
Being an idiot I paid for another month on the flat we used to share as he hadn't found anywhere to go and the tenancy ended yesterday, I finally cleared out the last few belongings of mine after a couple of glasses of wine for courage and said goodbye to that chapter that started so wonderfully but ended with me crying almost daily and feeling ugly and invisible.
But today I woke up feeling brilliant. Calm and free and finally back in control. I've been seeing an awesome new personal trainer over the past two weeks and am again tomorrow evening. My friends have seriously rallied around and work is going well. I'm still only 28 and there is so much future without a miserable, negative, alcoholic child holding me back. I even have a date this evening, although I've no interest in falling into another relationship for a long time.
It's all exciting and I thought it would take so much longer to get to this place. I just wanted to update and say thank you 
for giving me the strength and pointing out that yes, he's a monumental thundercunt and I can and will do better.
