This shit was my reality for 6 years and I won’t lie, I’m still so angry with myself for allowing it to happen. It changed me. https://twitter.com/ashewyn/status/1274669456808202241
I want to mention something that stuck out the most to me in this thread. I was accused of cheating and my mistakes being magnified for several years. The smear campaign point messed me of the most. I was being dragged as a cheater and a liar directly towards my friends.
I NEVER cheated. I was fiercely loyal. I only lied about things like wanting to see my mom more or seeing friends he hated because they hated him. I was suicidal with my abusive ex. Please be aware of these signs. He was my nightmare.
I’m a different person after my abuser. I sometimes dwell on thoughts like he ruined who I was. Friends have said that I’m nothing close to who I was before him. I resent him for that.
