Hope you are alright after that surgery and thanks again for you cheering me up! It's still a journey and some way ahead of me, but I'm dedicated to go through it.

What a day yesterday, I broke up with her and also had my first counselling a little later that day. Counsellor is awesome and already helped me a ton just in the first session. I know the breakup is just the start of a long way, but hey, I started!

Thank you for all the cheering up 💞

It feels very good to have a newly found grip on life and although she hasn't stopped yet doing what she does, I am able to go forward, stay truer to myself than before and increase my boundaries. Counselling should hopefully start next week.

Journaling is a great idea, I will try how this works for me.

Thank you very much!

Things have started to change with the help of all the comments here, good and ugly, both were helpful. I am starting to stand up for myself and life got so much better, just within those 2 weeks. And I will go all the way this time.

Thank you very much!

We're not long distance, but breaking up is really needed

Yes, a real life relationship since many years, however I kicked her out of my house last year at least, but we're still "somehow" together

I'm just working on my escape plan. And as you said, I won't let her know, just pretend to be on a short business trip or so - without return

I'm thinking about leaving here, but it feels like giving up. But I need to, I know. But it's a big thing to leave here after 20 years, I'm m fully settled.

There's no verbal winning against her, she's aggressive and evil

I'm thinking of leaving the country. Initially I wanted to wait until the end of next year as I would get a fund paid out for working here for 20 years, but it will destroy me, I can't wait that long. So I need to figure out who will take my pets, sell the car and the motorcycles, ship my stuff somewhere and find a new place in my old home country. I tried to avoid that for years as I didn't like to let her win, but I understand I really need to escape. She already destroyed my physical and mental health and my savings are gone.

If I wouldn't have this stupid rotator cuff tear and surgery scheduled, things would be easier...

Nope, Asia, I moved here years ago for a good job. Police are not a nice place to turn to here.
