My ex husband beat me and threw me around like a rag doll, 3 months into our dating relationship and I still married him! I was only 18 years old. My hurt was so severe, I shut it away and "made" myself love him more.
I live in constant fear that it will happen again. I live in constant fear that I deserve it to happen again.
I am quivering with rage right now. This is something you did not deserve. No amount of quarreling, provocation, picking a fight - none of it, ever warrants being punched. I instinctively felt very protective of you.
I hope you are ok. I know on the outside you are just fine. What is on the inside needs a bit more nuturing right now.
Thinking of you and when you are ready, you know how to get hold of me.
