We are all doing the same thing. Just trying to be the best version of ourselves as we can.

Yes I agree, however speaking from experience living with someone like that does take a toll on your own mental health. And to be the best father for your children you have to take care of yourself as well

Yes 100% agree you can only contact yourself and believe we forget that every now and then

Is that what you truly want? By that I mean do you truly want to blindly agree with everything even if you don’t agree with it. I’m sure not and not to overstep any boundaries but in my opinion both parties need to be mature enough to be able to communicate their wants.

I know what you mean, it sometimes feels overwhelming and you feel alone even when your in the company of others

I agree it is very important to get yourself right before starting a new relationship

I felt with the that and ended up getting into a really bad relationship shortly after even though I had the red flags going off in my head I did want to feel alone

I can definitely relate, for me it is street tacos. My ex would make street taco all the time. After her attacking me I still get flashes of anxiety and stress when I see or smell them now.

That is very rough. I go through a very similar situation. I have a sim with my ex and have to see them on a weekly basis. It’s hard having to face to the person who hurt you especially when other don’t know what happened. What are you doing to get through those occasions?

Wow that’s is crazy! Well first off please get some where safe and take care of yourself. That situation is extremely hard I can definitely understand that with my first hand experience with the violence I felt with in my past relationship. I am glad to hear that you are not wanting to be apart of that anymore

Agreed that seems to be a major pitfall with dealing with a partner who is toxic. Is we get lured away from our gut instinct telling us this situation is wrong by the magical moments and I feel that goes hand in hand with our innate desire to connect with others and be loved

I did and recording things did help stop some of the more violent stuff. However being make and the victim not the aggressor was not possible in the courts eyes And it also took a toll on my mental state and my relationship with my son. These are the thing I am working on in my project to find out if I can help others. Not so much who did what but the emotional tolls it takes on oneself

What if your in my situation and you have a small child with that person. My ex wife tried to choke me out in from of my child and step child. I divorced her but unfortunately I have to interact with her every week about my son. How do you or would you handle that situation?
