Hi and thanks for sharing such a traumatic relationship. It’s one thing to be able to end it then. It’s a whole different issue to come to terms with what you have just ended. Everything seems 20/20 in hindsight and maybe 30/20 to people who have not been in your shoes. Speaking for myself, I’ve hated myself for years for letting myself be a pawn, an emotional punching bag, a guilt sponge, and a monument for disappointment by a family member — a parent. And I’m still coming to terms with that. But practicing stoicism has made me FEEL resilient at least. Resilience hasn’t been tested true yet. LoL 😂
Wishing you a life of contentment with a fresh chance to experience the love you deserve!
Peace :)
