I remember the day like it was yesterday. I especially remember how I felt. Scared. Nervous. Excited. Doubtful. Beaten. Broken. Exhausted.

Life with my ex was filled with uncertainty, lies, verbal and emotional abuse, bullying, emotional manipulation, control and so much more. I know you’re probably thinking, why on earth didn’t I just leave him?

Here’s why:

It’s not that easy.

My entire life consisted of failure, turmoil, abuse, financial insecurity, fear of the future, and constant stress. I was always stressed about money. I was constantly looking for my knight in shining armor to save the day.

Or, to save me. It was me. I needed saving.

My whole life was spent looking for ‘him’. The one and only man who would sweep me off my feet and take away all my troubles. I wanted someone who would just fucking take care of me.
