Just need to tell someone
Today is our 15th anniversary. Last night he put out a cigarette on the side of my face. I have multiple scars on my face from him and too many to count on my body. I have no support system. I just wish I was strong enough on my own to leave. Thanks for listening. Just needed to get it out.
Aw hey @compassionateBunny8770, *offers to sit with you* that sounds incredibly upsetting :/ you do not deserve any of it. I understand how lack of support would make things more difficult for you, and therefore am glad you're reaching out for support and company in 7 cups, and could let some of your feelings out. Sending lots of love and strength your way. ❤
cigarette burns is no way to celebrate an anniversary. Wish those 15 years were being honored & respected instead of neglected. It’s hard to throw away something u care about.
I understand how you feel. I am in a similar situation. I wish I was strong enough to leave. But he threatens to either harm me or himself if I try. Or hes going to do things to ruin my life. He came home drunk again last night and choked me. I have had him throw lit cigarettes at me. If you need someone to talk to I'm here. It's very easy for people to say well then just leave him. They don't get it.
