My boyfriend abuses me - this is the first time I’m saying it I can’t say it yet even typing it is hard. He hits me he chokes me and calls me names and I still go back. I’m not brave enough yet to leave I’m hoping I find the courage to someday. Soon?

The fact that you’ve acknowledged it, even here, is a fantastic start. If you ever want to talk or make plans to leave, domestic violence hotlines are a great place to begin. You deserve to be loved AND safe. You are so much more than him and I hope you find the courage to leave 🩷

You are brave. You are so strong and resilient. Your power comes from YOU. He tries to have fake power by attempting (and ultimately) failing to steal others it does not come from him. He is a coward who kicks people when they’re down bc he can’t beat anybody when they are standing up.

You are prob in survival mode you will get through this and flourish again. Do what you have to do to stay safe… someone who truly loves you could never get close to doing that to you. I just got out of a relationship like that and I cry sooo much less yess I miss him sometimes but gurl. I have myself back. My intuition and gut. It feels so good. Keep listening to yours even if you don’t like what it says. Unfortunately thats the hard truth.

I absolutely wanna make a domestic violence claim at some point I just don’t have any personal family or anyone I can go to to get away from the situation so I have to get something set up before I make any claims or statements. I need to find a safety place first.

He absolutely should be ashamed of himself. He’s just an insecure man and thinks that the only way to keep me is to beat me into submission and it’s working. Thank you for your support.

Thank you I try to remember my worth every single day. It’s so hard when I’m told every day that I’m worth nothing but I’m trying.

I’m so sorry that you were ever in a relationship like this girl I feel for you so much. I’m so glad that you got out. It’s definitely a hard truth to see. Thank you so much for sharing your story.

It is not working!!! You still have your resilience, and kindness! More than he ever will have. You may be tired from surviving, but why wouldn’t you be. It makes sense. This shit is real but you are moving to safety and success. It won’t happen overnight bc the abuse didn’t. I believe in you, and are and always have been powerful he just had you lose sight of what is undeniably there
