Leaving

I am slowly but surely feeling so much better each & every day. The "fog" is lifting and I am beginning to see things for what they are rather than for what I want them to be. My emotions are still all over the place, sadness, anger, fear, confusion but now, in addition I also feel hope and optimism. I want to learn from my nightmare rather than dwell on it. I have a long way to go but now I can see one foot in front of the other. " I used to believe that anything was better than nothing. Now I know that sometimes nothing is better." Glenda Jackson

Hi maggster, Im glad yu will

Hi maggster, Im glad yu will stay on here...this is home. Out there, every guy is a wolf of sorts...due to our education here, we have learnt to see RED in red flag. Phew. that last hookup of mine was a close shave. the chap is located far far away...he romances me like Sir Galahad...and then devalues me like nobody's business...and discards me too.... and can yu believe it...I did not even realise i had been DISCARDED until 3 agonizing weeks later. with nh, it took me 20 years to understand his game. with hss it took in total, 4 weeks to catch on to his game. i am thankful that now with my advancing age...i do not need a guy to say sweetnothings to me ever again. Im OK and good on my own (though still trapped in this perfidious marriage with nh). at least... my body is not available to nh anymore. small mercies.

Is your post titled "leaving"

Is your post titled "leaving" because you are leaving the forum and going it alone? I sure hope that is not the case.

Sorry for the confusion

No , no I'm not leaving here. I'm leaving the nightmare of being with a person who is a toxic narcissist and psychopath! In forum terms, I'm getting off the roller coaster and will never take that ride again! I feel a strength today that I cannot even remember feeling within the past 15 years!!!
