Re: Can I vent?

Thank you everyone for listening to me, and encouraging me. I have contacted a shelter in my area to get help. The lady in charge of housing was not in, so I'm waiting to hear back from her. They have housing options available, so I'm really happy about that. I am ready to start this new part of my life, and to get my life back on the right track. And the place I am going to go is a few hours away from here, which will help me even more in severing all ties to him. So, now I'm looking into storage for my things mainly the furniture I have that was my mothers.

I pray to God to give me the strength I need to do what is best for me. I am desperatly ready, but I guess in a way I am a little scared to. I have never lived on my own before, and I guess it is just the fear of the unknown. BUT nothing is worse than the hell that I'm living in now. To lose all sense of yourself, and your self worth, is a truly scary thing. It is crazy how someone who says they love you, can turn out to be your worst enemy. But, he has learned from his parents that he can do no wrong. It's sickening how they treat him. The worst episode, when I had my nose broken, and I was screaming and crying blood gushing from my nose, and his father who was staying with us at the time, didn't not even come out to see if I was ok, he could have been killing me, but he didn't even come out the room to see if I was alive or dead... I swear to you that my faith in men in general has been truly diminished. I know all men aren't this way but from what I've seen it doesn't look promising to me...
