Yep, me.

It was also, " I don't remember doing that" and then when I didn't buy that excuse it was because he was pissed off (but he was fine 5 seconds ago) and lord knows what else, because it happened on more than 1 occasion and none of those were ever his fault.

Sometimes he would raise his hand, but then bunch them both into fists and storm out the door instead of following through. I stupidly thought that meant I could trust him. That he would rather walk it off than strike me, that he had his temper under control.

Silly me didn't know he was only biding his time.

Silly me didn't know there was a difference between being hot headed and being an abuser.

Silly me was young and without trustworthy resources.

Silly me, I sometimes wish I could go back and save that girl....
