Why this BS of feeling I needed a man to go with? I admit that’s not being a modern politically correct woman. I’m terrified of doing it alone. I’ve never been alone.
My sister left her h for another man who helped her get out with 3 young kids. They are also married unhappily ever after.
Ugh. Is there any right solution?

That was my problem. I knew my relationship was bad and unhealthy, but I stayed. Why?

Because I was afraid of giving up, because I was afraid of being alone. Because I didn't want to face my own shortcomings in our relationship.
What finally did get me out was when a friend was telling me her own story of abuse with her husband and I felt so terrible for her, that she did not deserve that. And I had this
aha moment that it was not okay for me either.
