I know what you are thinking, those are simple! Everyone would and will remember those. No, sadly, when it comes to it, we don’t. It all flies out of the window when we are grasping for survival. I supported mine financially for years, when I decided to leave he said he would “f*^k me nine ways to Sunday” I told him he had, I just didn’t realise the extent of how much further he could go, and did. I felt bad for leaving, after all, he and his family had ‘gaslighted’ me for years, I thought I owed him something. I didn’t. I left with very little, I re-built my life and my little cottage, furnishing it, making my stamp on it, thinking I was bold, courageous and strong. I was but I just didn’t think of the simplest things. What I built before I gave him and what I built after he took.


Don’t feel guilty about protecting yourself, I did, learn from me, it isn’t worth it. Take the simple steps and protect you!


Have you protected yourself?
