unfortunately not hillbunnyb, my family are quite similar to him in the sense that they mainly just think about themselves and wouldnt be able to accept what i told them.

i will remain strong tanya, he is not going to win this, not anymore. he has had power over me for too long and now im so much stronger i can defeat him if i so wish. i think he does know that yes hillbunnyb, and that is why he does it, i wouldnt have minded so much last night but i was sat opposite him!

i really dont think he likes the thought of me being so different to the old "victim" i used to be. i used to be the type of person who got so afraid of confrontation and was constantly scared of anything. now im the opposite, i wont back down if its something i truly believe in or goes against my principals. i think hes in a denial stage now, he thinks that if he is nice to me i will let it go and let him stay...how wrong he can be. if he doesnt move out i will give him an ultimatum...he goes or i go, and if i go i will tell EVERYONE why im going. it couldnt get simpler than that. im not prepared to be treated like that pathetic person i use to be, like you say hillbunnyb, gone are those days.
