First date after leaving toxic relationship!

[Someonehelpmi]

I'm going on a coffee date with a guy I've been talking to for the last few weeks, is it sad I'm really excited? I have a 6 month old son and my last relationship was really toxic (manipulated, stolen from, pressured into sex; called fat after having a baby). I'm excited to finally meet someone who is a decent person and may actually treat me with respect. Sorry this is a pointless post just wanted to share my excitement/nervousness!

P.s. know him through a trusted friend x

Excitement is good! Naivety is bad. Get to know him in rl slowly. Don't mistrust, but do be aware of red flags and trust your instincts.

Unless your trust friend has been in a long term relationship with him, they only know his public face. So trust yourself and your judgment over theirs.

Did you do anything like the freedom programme after your abusive relationship?

Completely agree with the above.

It's just a first date, try and relax and enjoy it.

The freedom program is available online if you haven't done it.

I haven't done the freedom programme what is it?

No nativity here, I lost everything after i left my partner. I look out for DS and me now and have limited the date to 2 hours

Naivety*

When's the date?

Today at 1pm
