I've only selected this one part from an excellent post. But this speaks volumes to me.
I know, there are times (sometimes very long times) when it doesn't seem so. Maybe there are even false starts. But it's there. It's just waiting to be recognized for what it is, then felt and enjoyed and
lived.
It's all yours. It's your real life again. And it's so wonderful to have.
Keep moving forward.

Its ok I understand and I appreciate the fact that you guys are my friends and I have come to know you thru this forum. Its been a couple months and tonight I left the house and went and asked a buddy if I can stay with him until I get on my feet. Of course he said yes and so Saturday I am going to start moving and never look back. She has not even made an attempt at any counseling. Actually I am so so so mentally drained right now it will take me a bit to get back to normal. I should have listened to all of you but I didnt and so I learned once again on my own. Anyway hope you all are doing well and I will check in after I get moved.

Sledge I didn't listen to some good friends or myself as well and took her back. Please don't waste time being hard on yourself. Your human and you have a good soul. Sometimes we just have to see for ourselves...
With that said, I am so glad you are getting out of harm's way!!! Make darn sure there is no way she can contact you. Surround yourself with your safe supports and give yourself good time to heal.
Be good to yourself and allow time and patience

Hello Sledge. Like MyWave has said, don't beat yourself up about this. And don't worry about it taking time for you to get back to normal, because it isn't a race.
I'm glad to see you've already started to take care of yourself - as you've taken steps forward and away from the HPD. That's really great.
Keep moving forward.

Absolutely, Sledge, don't be hard on yourself. We have certainly all been there many times. You must do what's right for you, at the time it's right for you to do it. I am so sorry for what you're going through. Please take good care of yourself and rest in the knowledge that you truly did everything possible to make it work with her. You will eventually find someone who can give back to you all the wonderful things you have to give to her. Be patient; it will come. Hugs.

Well i'm out of the house and staying with a friend for now. I went to the house tonight to get some of my stuff and she started to quiz me about who i'm staying with. Anyway long story short i'm staying with a friend who is a girl and she freaked on me and I had to call the cops because she went psycho and wouldnt let me leave. This girl has a boyfriend and offered to let me stay in her spare room till I can get on my feet. So this is where i'm at and i hope that by reading all of this somebody new to this will take something from my story and use it in there own personal life. So thats and update and I will check in, in a few more days.
