it just tears my gut up to think about al of the emotional abuse this man inflicts upon you......

i want to tell you this. every time he does this and gets by with it, you lose a little bit of yourself. and believe me, it isn't all that easy to re-claim. ask Patty and I...(i know her situation)

i'm 16 years out and i still don't trust people like i used to trust. and i doubt that i ever will.

the more he tears you down, the more power he takes from you. the less power you have, the harder it is going to be to improve your life.

are his good points so sterling that you can overlook the abuse?
