New here but not new to abuse
      #485400 - 12/16/08 12:00 PM

Hi all! I just wanted to introduce myself. I am 37 and was married 16 years to an abusive jerk, but finally went to a domestic abuse shelter 1.5 years ago with 3 of my 4 kids. It's a huge struggle for sure but we will NEVER go back, even if we have to live in my van.

I was going to post my own "story" but then I realized how long it was even after I took a bunch of stuff out lol. So I think I'll lurk a bit before bombarding y'all with my own issues.

I'm sorry we're all here, abuse SUCKS. But I'm so relieved to see I'm not as alone as I feel.

Bye for now...
Shelly

Wondergirl,
I would love to hear your story. when I read about others who are in the same situation it always helps me. Most of the stories are not about ppl who have already taken the huge and difficult steps you have. Please share when you have time. It will help inspire ppl who dont have the will to leave the H e l l they may be in. I still have not be able to gather up the courage to leave.
God Belss you and your children and Merry Christmas.

Cute how you discredit without proving a person wrong.

In fact, we have read your posts. You don't even know the difference between a hole in the ground and what you represent…axxhole.

You and your ilk (fellow femin azis) would rather disrupt posts from real posters that need help than give real advice.

There are no other posters on this site, period, that know more than us jovial guys from Fathers' Integrity & Rights Movement.

You can only parrot the filth of your fellow femin azis and have no real thoughts of your own, piglet. You know. We know. Anybody that reads what you have to state can see it.

Ask anyone that is not a femin azi PIG as you are.

Beware:

This is a known liar and disrupter of posts.

This is a known bully.

This is a known femin azi.

This is a known troll poster.

Therefore, whatever she states should be regarded with caution and suspect due to her repeated lies, misinformation and posts in multiple names/genders along with just being an "icky" type subhuman.

Ignore the troll. It was one guy posting under multiple names. He's been banned since your original post was made. This place can definitely be helpful to anyone seeking support or advice.

You need to tell your "story" so you can get good advice

This is a wonderful place for support from certain people. Alot of us have been to hell and back with our X's. And some are still with their abusers. If you care to share, we can be supportvie, give advice, whatever you may need.

sighs... you are right some of the people here are very supportive and understanding which is great. Some of the people are not... they want to make you feel like you did something wrong and that you are lying about situations you were in.... sighs.... if only i could say that none of it ever happened... especially for my child... I don't know if the child remembers any of it..... but just the knowledge that she watched things happening is hard enough.

I know, believe me. It is hard to know that your child went through it with you, whether they were touched physically or not.

I will tell you, I was with my 2 youngest children's father for about 7 years or so too long. They went through hell and I kick myself in the butt on a reg basis for that. He wasn't abusive to them usually, but they still shouldn't have seen the things they did.

It is tough to get through it all. I know. It has been 6+ years since the X and I split and I still wake up sweating at night sometimes. I have the most wonderful man as my husband now, and although he is very supportive, it is still rough when I have to deal with the X at times.

I wish you and your child the best. It sounds like your child is lucky to have you. :-)
