Reading On This Forum = VALIDATION. A brief introduction.
I'm a new member. Like I said in a previous post...my story is under construction. I started writing it today but found that after a couple of hours, I was only a few months into my experience with my ex who told me that he was diagnosed as borderline/narcissistic 6 months into our relationship. I had ridden that rollercoaster for almost 5 years. Half way through the ride I began my detachment process. We have been broken up for 15 months with the exception of a 2 month period where I broke NC with him in what I believed to be an effort on my part to make some peace with him. I realize now that really what I was needing from him was a genuine apology and validation. Needless to say, I got neither and I have finally awoken to the truth of exactly who he is and what he has done to me. I no longer wish to have anything to do with him. I will find my own peace thank you very much!
So, I find this website and find that here is where I get validation. The blogs here inspire me, piss me off, make me cry and/or give me strength.
I am basically 15+ months free from his subhuman ass. Even though he told me exactly who he is early on in our relationship, I wanted to believe in his goodness. And here I sit, still, needing validation. WTH?
Anyways, I'm sorry for all of the pain that we have all experienced and I want to thank all of you for speaking your truths on this forum. I'm looking forward to sharing, learning and moving forward with all of you!
