Some of you will recognise my name & that I've posted a couple of times about my abusive partner.
Well, today I took the leap & ended the relationship. It came to a head the other weekend when he decided to scream at my 16yo down the phone, calling me horrid names because I was asleep & didn't answer my phone.
This made me make the choice...he made my baby cry!
I decided to start making my plans; I set up a secret account to start saving, was in touch with womans aid about my options, I had told my sister (for safety reasons), I was building up my strength, I checked myself out.
Last night, after working from 9am to 8pm, managing a team of 30 whilst also making calls, I burned his eggs. He complained; normally I don't care but last night I cried & realised how unhappy I really am & how he doesn't appreciate me or have any respect for me. This morning he text to start an argument, that's when I called it a day. He then came back to the house, to try to get me to argue; instead I just told him I didn't love him and we were done, he agreed, went on to be absolutely horrid to me and said he's leaving on Friday.
So.....I did it and I'm not going back on my word. I just wanted to share this to let others know they have the strength! I felt so helpless, alone & weak but I stood up to my abuser, I'm getting out of the relationship and you can too.
