Better!
I worked through things, and I no longer feel angry.
Then I made some progress w/ my career! Very exciting. Got a phone interview for tomorrow, my side business was featured in a blog, and I was included in an interview in a book that someone was writing, and they put my name on the front in the list of "experts."so exciting! I never had my name on a book before!!
Not a slam dunk yet, but getting closer :)
Feeling much more positive now.
I'm wondering if I even want to date for a while, because it's nice to just focus on myself, my career, interest, friends, and getting to know who I am again. After these years of abuse.
I remember a past boyfriend (before my ex) who was always kind to me, or at least NEVER crossed the line into abuse. I never hated him, not even after the break up, and vice versa. It didn't work out for other reasons, but he was a quality person. He would put me first, and make my preferences important. I never stressed about the relationship, and I never worried how he felt about me. That is a HEALTHY relationship.
Most guys out there ARE healthy. Only 15% are socipaths or abusive. I need to remember that going forward.
