Finally happy

[finallyahappygirl]

I just wanted to post a happy relationship thread as I tend to read the threads about cheating husbands etc.

After 2 long term abusive relationships I have finally found love and happiness. I have met someone who has taught me that love is real and that I am loveable and deserve to be treated with love and respect.

Happy Wednesday peeps.

@finallyahappygirl

Thank you for giving me hope.

What a lovely post! I wish you many, many happy Wednesdays! x

Congratulations :) I'm happy you've found your happiness!

I'm in a similar situation, but only one previous abusive relationship. It took me a long time to be able to trust and settle down, but I've been with my partner almost 3 years now, and it shocks me how straightforward things are when you don't have to second guess someone's mood, or what they're going to snap at you for!!

finallyhappy me too. Amazing men definitely do exist

What a lovely post OP. I am happy for you.

@finallyahappygirl Yay! xxxxx

Me too OP.

Not had abusive relationships but was very unhappy in my marriage and I was just getting worse. I found the courage to split, met someone else, albeit a lot quicker than I had planned, and am now very happy with him. He has shown me that just because someone isn't bad/abusive, doesn't make them a good partner. And that good communication (or any communication) is key to a healthy relationship.

It's a great feeling isn't it! And refreshing to read after a lot of the stuff on here.

This is lovely! Good on you, OP, you deserve it!

It really was like a love story albeit it is only recently I can truly relax and enjoy being happy due to me taking along time to trust someone could love me.

I met my dp whilst on holiday with my children only a few weeks after finding the courage to split from ex. I was not looking for love and neither was my dp (certainly not so quickly I'd swore to myself I was done with men) We both have 2 children the same age and whilst on holiday they made friends so I sat with my dp whilst the children played. It may sound cheesy but it was like we were in a relationship before we was, there was an instant spark and an instant connection. Both left long term relationships that had been abusive and neither of us had been looking for love.

We spent time together on holiday due to the children playing and then he called me when I got home to ask if I would like to see him again just me and him. I had butterflies and felt like a love sick teen! When we decided to start a relationship we decided to return to the holiday destination with our children to tell them that we had vegan dating it felt like the perfect place to break the news to them. They were all very happy about it.

Fast forward 2 years and we now live together. Our children get along brilliantly and this amazing man has broken down all of my barriers and taught me how to be loved and appreciated.

So their is hope. I now believe in love and understand what theses love songs actually mean and find it really hard to understand why I put up with being treated so badly for so long.

There is hope and there is someone out there for everyone. Xxxx
