PS: Therapy can help you heal from the abusive ex. I married a man that turned out to be a diagnosed narcissist. Ouch. You know how it is. I am divorced now and therapy helped me. I'm in an awesome relationship with a man I met after divorce. We've been together several years.

I'm not implying you should change...but I wanted you to know that you can heal from that relationship. Age is not a factor, trust me. 37 is young. You're great...do what is good for you.
