I know it's hard for anyone who hasn't suffered emotional abuse to understand why I would even consider staying in an abuse relationship. I just want to clear that up a bit because it's very complicated. I fell in love with a good man, a man who showed me love, care and a promise for the future...

Hi Friends, Just rambling today. I was thinking about all of the advice I've been given here lately about trying to find good temporary homes for my pets so that I can leave my abusive relationship before my lease ends in the spring. I appreciate all of the advice. <3 I've mentioned that I...

Hi Friends, I've mentioned in my introductory post that I'm in an emotionally abusive relationship of 5 1/2 years now. I have a plan to move on next spring when I can afford to leave with my pets. I'm squirreling away money and trying my best not to make waves but it's really tough to tolerate...

Hi ALL friends, I'm Miriam. I'm 50 years old. I've been in an abusive relationship for the last 5.5 years. That first sentence took me nearly an hour to type out. I met the bf in 2013. He is many years younger than I, unemployed, lazy, irresponsible...but very passionate and loving when he...
