How could anybody think you're being hard on me with those words!? {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Angie}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

It's gonna take me a little bit, but I fully intend to fly one of these days. Yes, I just had the same thought a bit ago, he's been keeping me down. His apathy is contagious.

He's only been gone since this morning and I can already feel a sense of freedom and my own habits and ways of doing things coming back; something as simple as keeping my cigarettes in the freezer! I can turn my music on full blast and take a shower with the door open! His infernal jazz or blues hasn't been playing today! YooooHoooooooo!! LOL It's okay in moderation but I had to listen to it 24/7 or his O'Reilly Factor, Larry Elder! All they are is screaming matches!!

Angie, I WAS his victim! He could scream at me and call me names, but I didn't dare do it in return! NOT A VICTIM anymore! I'm a survivor! That's not to mean that I won't start crying again just from saying the word, but I'm feeling just a might better already!

Angie, thanks for your wonderful words!
