I broke up with my ex-boyfriend almost two months ago. When we first broke up all he did was text and call me even after I told him that he needs to leave me alone. Now, you would think I would be heart broken about this because we were together for 2 years and 3 months, but honestly it was the best thing that ever happened to me. He was always verbally abusive and VERY controlling. I wasn't even allowed to talk to my best friend (who i've been friends with since pre-k.) On Valentines Night I came home from work and told him that I wanted to talk to her again. He completely flipped out.
He trapped me in his room wouldn't let me leave. Whenever I tried to scream he would put his hand over my mouth and bend my neck back. He would turn the music up so no one could hear. He left bruises all over my arms from grabbing me.... None of that made me as mad as when he asked if I needed water and I wasn't taking ***** from him so I pushed it away and he dumped the whole gallon on my head... That was disrespectful... He had me so scared I was crying for my mom and he wouldn't let me leave.
I didn't call the police because I just wanted him out of my life and all the police would do is make a bunch of court cases where I would have to go see him.
Like I said he would continuously try and contact me. He also was stalking my house at 2 in the morning. He then made a fake facebook to talk to me. I eventually called the cops because I went over there to get some more of my stuff and him and his family came out and started beating on my car. I drove home and called the police. The police said there was absolutely nothing that they could do about him grabbing me, even though I have pictures and a message from him admitting to it.... They told me just not to talk to him and that if he tries to contact me to let them know... He has been trying to contact me, but honestly I haven't said anything because I know that the cops wont do anything about it anyway....
..........But I also have a new boyfriend who is more than I could ever have imagined him to be. He is the best thing in my life right now. He treats me like a princess, which is something my ex never did He's not perfect, but I don't expect him to be. Why would I? He could tell my I'm pretty and thats more than I have ever gotten before. People say that I moved on to fast, but honestly I pretty much had a year to get over my ex. The last year of our relationship we were basically just friends with benefits. It feels good to have an ACTUAL boyfriend.
I saw this quote that said "The right MAN will love everything about you that the wrong BOY was intimidated by." --- that has never described my situation more.

WiShEs.Of.ThE.hEaRt, has your ex stopped trying to contact you?

The advent of the new friend is wonderful, super! A lot has happened recently. How's the anxiety and depression in the midst of everything?

I'm very happy for you that you were able to get out of such an abusive situation. No one should be able to shame you for moving on when you were in a relationship like that. I hope the best of luck for you in your relationship, you definitely to be treated with love not abuse.

Cops are utterly useless in stalking cases, but a concealed carry permit works wonders that was actually told to me BY a cop.

He still was, up until I changed my phone number yesterday.
The depression has been a lot better since I've left him.
The anxiety is still there just because I'm freaking out every time I go somewhere by myself or when its dark out...
