[Interestedwoman]

One of my ex's exs sent me this song, she said it helped her when she split up with an abusive partner. I love it

Any of the rest of you got some songs that have helped you when things have ended with an unsuitable man?

The lyrics of Cartwheels by Ward Thomas helped me make the decision to leave my abusive husband. When Somebody Loved Me from Toy Story 2 was my feeling sorry for myself song and Should’ve Been You by Imelda May which was released around the time I split with my him was my getting angry and knowing I’d done the right thing song. I played then all a lot!

A good chunk of the Taylor swift back catalogue. It is what she's famous for afterall.

Dear John
Death by a thousand cuts
Clean
All too well
I knew you were trouble
We are never ever getting back together
Shoulda said no
White horse
The story of us
Sad, beautiful, tragic
All you had to do was stay

There are more...
Bless her, she did have quite the time of it.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

'I almost crumbled
I almost fell
I almost gave you everything under your spell

You almost mattered
You almost won
You held my fears and weakness
In the web you spun

Took what you wanted
But you're leaving with nothing {...}

I almost crumbled
I almost fell
I almost gave you everything but you've failed'

Rolling in the Deep - Adele
