Living with him was like swimming in a shark infested ocean and coming out alive. The constant fear of wondering if I would ever make it to the shore; getting there and experiencing relief which lasts only for a few seconds, because I know. No doubt about it, the next day would bring with it, another date with the ocean. The fear, the apprehension and the cycle continues… That was life with him.
Don’t you dare tell me I should have tried harder. There are not many people who would survive a day and I did; I gave it seven years of my life which I can never get back. Was it patience or helplessness? Love or foolishness?

“Was it patience or helplessness? Love or foolishness?” – Possibly all of them, but also (hopefully) an experience from which your learned enough to avoid repeating it. Take care Ameena.

You were strong, you were brave. You gave him a lifetime’s worth of chances to prove he deserved you and he blew it. Don’t second guess yourself as you did what you believed to be right for you at the time. Now that you’re out of the ocean, enjoy the sun and the beach ❤
