How to forget him
It made me
alive....again
 "It made me not so gullible and a little bit stronger"
How I did it: This was the hardest thing to do in my entire life. I loved my husband. Even though we were both only 18 I truly loved him. Through our whole relationship, he was abusive, mentally and physically, only I didn't see it because my mind was so clouded by his constant "affections and declarations of love". He had me so brainwashed I turned my back on my family, God, and myself. But one day after I couldn't cover up the black eye, I left. It's been one year. After such a long time of hurt and sorrow, I stopped and thought of myself. I'm in school, I have a great job, and I realized, I am someone. I looked in the mirror and really looked and who I saw was a new woman. One who matters. And from now on I know in my heart its going to be ok because I deserve so much better. And its coming :) Lessons & tips: A lesson to all of you girls out there: just because someone texts or calls you a thousand times a day just to say he loves you, doesn't make it true. These are characteristic signs of controlling partners. Their real reason is to check where you are and what you are doing. Also to hear from you how much you love them so they are able to confirm that you are their property. There is such a thing as someone to protect and love you, and you can express your love right back. just watch out for those obsessive signs. Resources: My church, family, and friends were my most valuable resources for help.

More "How I Did It" stories
It made me
Too soon to tell 
How I did it: He's my first love, and this made every other guy I dated or even just gone on dates with after him add up to something inferior. After a long distance reconnection and only one weekend together over the course of the year, the day finally came - and this was recently. The other night he was talking to me about how the chase can be fun. I explained that it's not fun after so many years and eventually you want that person to take the bait.… Read how I did it…

How I did it: it just takes time. i knew this and i just surrounded myself with friends and family and drowned myself in work and eventually i was crying less, and then i was laughing again, and then i would realize that a whole day had gone by and i hadn't thought of him. eventually the painful memories just became stories, and the three years we spent together became stepping stones to where i am today. it just takes time.

How I did it: Well ... he got a girlfriend. Plus, I discovered I was only attracted to him physically, and he wouldn't make a good husband for me. I started comparing him to the man I wanted to marry, and, though I know I won't marry the man of my dreams, he didn't size up at all! Read how I did it…

Used and abused. But it wasn’t exactly abuse as I wanted it. He persuaded me to believe him after thinking of him as a liar for ages. Now he is ignoring me. I knew he was like this, this much of an idiot, but i believed it when he said he liked me. I feel humiliated too. NC NC NC is the way forward with this one. He’ll be there for a while but he’ll fade eventually (i hope.)

And then I started dating a new guy about 2 months ago. Just this past weekend the new guy started being distant. I think I am getting the old heave-ho. Is this a pattern? How do you go on?

I think we should all boycott boys and turn lesbian because all boys suck fat dicks and I hate them. Oh and if any of yall read my previous message and were wondering, he and my friend are dating now. They talked for like 2 weeks. We had a thing for like THREE YEARS, but he “didn’t want a girlfriend,” and God forbid I be at all upset about it. Wow I must be super lame or something…

We never officially dated, but it was definitely something. for like 2 years!! And I really liked him…But guess what? Now he’s trying to get with one of my friends!! He didn’t even have the decency to let me know we were no longer anything, I guess since we weren’t “dating.” You know what’s even worse? My other friends are encouraging her to get with him! Wow…some friends. I mean what the hell am I supposed to say? Yeah, yall would be so cute?! I just don’t get it. I wish I could hate him but he still treats me as a friend and jokes around with me and I can’t avoid his presence. So any advice? I’d like to find someone new, but its a small town with very few options…ugh. I need a vacation.

While I do think I’ve got used to the fact that he doesn’t care and we’ll probably never run into each other again in life- I cannot make myself forget that he exists and is living and having fun hopefully….....
