I understand your pain, mam❤🦋🕊.
You married a severe narcissist
Narcissistic rage
I think my ex had anger issues. He knows better.
So sorry for what you endure. Yes, the violence gets worse!
Ladies, the first time your man hits you or threatens you, LEAVE HIM IMMEDIATELY AND DON'T LOOK BACK!! No matter how much you love him. Don't take no abuse from nobody🙏
Amen my QUEEN I FEEL YOU MY DADDY DIDN'T Whoop ME MY MOM HE JUST PUT ME ON PUNISHMENT I BEEN MARRIED 3 TIMES AND THEY ALL KNEW NOT TO PUT THEY MF HANDS ON ME PERIOD OR THEY WOULD HAVE TO SEE THE MAKER ,MY DADDY ,GRANDDADDY,BROTHERS ALL 7 OF THEM 😱😰👹👊🏿🪓💉⚱️🪦⚰️
Yep!
I dated my high school boyfriend a few years after high school.
His dad used to physically abuse his mom.
His mom and I were close , she called me her daughter in law even if her son and I didn’t work out, in her mind I’d be her #1 lol ❤
Anyway, my ex had one too many drinks and a few too many puffs one night. I stopped by after hanging with my best friend.
I guess I was looking too cute or something, and he slapped me as he asked where have I been?
That was the FIRST and LAST slap he ever put on me.
I was done. No amount of gifts or apologies could make up for it.
Ladies never take them back , he Will do it again.
Learn the definition of love. Love is the only word that people have their own “opinion “ of what love is.
It is a standard definition. Love is action. You will never hurt someone you love. Place the one person you care about the most as an example. Let’s say a child. Would you ever hurt or allow anyone to hurt your child?
It’s the same concept with every single relationship .
Stay blessed ❤

Right. My dad hit me one time and I used to mess with him when I got older. 😂
He said he didn’t want to but had to because he said he would, and if he didn’t do as he said, I’d lose respect for him at that very moment.
Which as an adult I understand him. I was like 4 years old and I wanted to pour a new gallon of milk in my cereal. He said , no let him do it. I insisted that I wanted to pour it. So he said, ok BUT if you drop the milk I will spank you.
And dum dum me dropped it 😂😂 and that was my spanking from him. lol
I miss my dad ❤

@@PettyIsMyMiddleName Beaten for spilling milk 🥛 at 4 years old? He had serious anger issues.
You never tell the abuser when you are planning to leave them
NEVER EVER...
NEVER EVER! JUST LEAVE.. we know…
I moved out quietly like a slithering snake. And never looked back. It's been since 2012.
@@1goldenshell You moved out intelligently. He was the snake.
True
Ladies we can't keep ignoring the red flags.
Please repeat again. I need to read it twice.
Facts , I went through though this now the gag is he now with African women and she really think the grass is green but guess what I don't say anything cause maybe maybe not he will or want but I do know for a fact if she got brothers he won't cause he is a runner when it come to a real.man putting hands on him he so scary I seen this to he won't fight a man but wi hit a women fast and this men manipulate you lies and will have his sister lie for him to the gag is he is a addict and now the girl he with is a addict too.i thank God I got out each and everyday I be thanking God . The days he want to go get high all its gone be a fight cause he gone go over to this prostitutes apartment hide til he spent out then when he come in its baby I'm sorry he was sorry alright
A couple of time he would accuse me of taken his wallet call the police and when he find it he never apologiz this was the star that broke the camels back .I was done with him.
rip
Exactly
Say it again - louder and slower!!!!! He started slapping her when she was young, before they got married.
She's describing a narcissist, theyre miserable people who hate to see anyone happy, including his own kids and wife
Absolutely
💯💯🙌🙌
More like a sociopath
100000%
I believe this
A man that will hit you before he marries you will beat the hell out of you after you marries you.
Frfr
Facts!!
You are certainly telling the truth. This happened to me. Back in the day I heard that " I'll give this marriage 5 years and then I'm gone, so I did 3 years and I was out thank God. Girls get out of abusive situations as soon as possible because I have seen husbands kill wives and wives kill husbands only to do life in prison. Don't let that be you. Also don't get pregnant until 5 years have passed you should know him by then. Remember God will give you the strength to carry on alone if YOU ASK HIM!!!
Alot of these men were abused as children as was my husband or saw abuse in the home as my husband. They need intensive therapy. There is nothing you can do to help them except direct them to therapy, you will have to accompany him because after dealing with him, you may become abusive too, only natural. The first sign of him not sticking to the plane GET OUT AND QUICK remember some one will get killed and someone will do life! DONT LET EITHER ONE BE YOU!!!
My ex husband slapped me one day while I was ironing. And I branded his ass too. He still has the mark til this day. Plus I called the police. He never touched me again. We got married some yrs after that then we divorced. But not due to domestic violence. A woman has got to stand up the first time. Don't even let it get started.
Sadly, I lived through 18 years of hell, similar to this, from 18 years of age to 38 years old.
I have been single now for 14 years, and they have been my best years yet! Never again.
I been there 24 years of hell
Ladies, I cannot understand why or how you endure these situations for so long!!!
Sorry dear I've been there 23yrs 😢😢
@lizmcdonald8967 I was there, and it's fear
@@emmalewis1979 you're my twin sis 😢😢 sorry for us
I would never tell an abusive man I want a divorce and still stay in the same house with him..count your blessings
That's very dangerous there is no telling what they'll to maintain control
DISAPEAR, MOST FEMALES THELL THE ABUSER UR LEAVING???? THE ABUSER WILL MURDER YOU, WITH NO REMORSE. JUST GET A PLAN AND LEAVE WITHOUT TELLING ANYONE
Ladies please be self sufficient.
Times were different than now. Women didn't have the empathy from the general public or the authorities that they have now. Women were looked at as men's possessions. They did what they were told or else. Physical punishment was acceptable for women and children. Also, there were inequalities in educational resources for women. Women were still expected to get married, have children and take care of the home whether they were college educated with a career or not. So, women didn't have many choices during those times. Things didn't start to change until the late 1980s to early 1990s for women to excel in academia and in the business world. Also, there was very little modern technology during that time such as cell phones, the internet, or social media. None of those luxuries existed before the late 1990s to the 2000s. So, women couldn't just call an Uber and book an Airbnb on her credit card for herself and kids to escape an abusive husband. In most cases, everything was in the husband's name including the credit cards and bank account. If the woman was working, then she had to give her money to her husband in order to keep working. So, who could the battered woman turn to except sympathetic friends and family members for help.
Never tell a man you going devorce
him and still live in the same house thank God you made it through
That’s so true 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Big mistake to, let the abuser know your next move......
Right that's crazy
I agree with that 💯
Yes! I'm surprised she didn't know any better
Sweet pea, never ever tell your abuser you are leaving. Make plans and leave when you know he will be gone a few hours
I totally agree! Move in silence!
From abused wife to published author. From abuser to jailbird. How fitting!
I’m proud of you. So glad you overcame him!!
I was married to a Pastor for 40 years. The last 3 years were very abusive. Thank god for my daughters who helped me get and stay out. It has been tough. I am very happy now. At 67 i am happy
You can get out. I took my dog and leeft and never looked back.
@demetricemerriweather9925, I’m so sorry you had to go through that. It’s doubly sad that you were abused by a pastor, a man who’s supposed to be a God-fearing, Bible-believing man.😔
@@CynthiaX-cs5eyChristians are usually bad people.
$500 bond?! her abusive husband should be in PRISON for choking her out to the point of nearly killing her. its DISGUSTING the amount of abuse he got away with
I couldn't listen to the entire clip but he didn't get away. He will answer for this behavior.
No matter how much u think u love someone,Love YOUrself more!Im a survivor too♡He punched me,ripped my hair out,bite me,choke me,head butt me,spit on me,cheated in me,lied to me,put gun to my head and pull the trigger. I could go on & on. How dare I ever let a pos do that to me!? Im also a child abuse survivor. 6 years of hell..I was laying in bed crying one night.It was pouring rain with thunder. I got up,walked outside,& fell with the rain screaming out to God"why are you doing this to me" immediately it hit me..God is the one that tried to warn me. He gave me multiple exits! I AM the one that chose to stay! Its like the horse that a man tied to a lawn chair..the horse thought he was tied down when in fact he was stronger than the chair and all he had to do was walk away. But that rope tricked his mind. I decided right there in the rain..I was leaving him the next day! And I did! That was almost 10 years ago. Im still single by choice because I will NEVER settle again. Life is about finding YOUrself not someone else. Its too short to not be happy. And the only man I need in my life is God & those in my family. I am happier now than ever. I live in peace,have self love,& content. Thank you God for making me stronger than what tried to break me♡ I am so proyd of you for finally breaking free. Life is a precious gift and too short to not be happy! God Bless you! And NEVER forget your worth..even if others dont see it!
I'm so glad you made it my sister. I was and still am fortunate that my daughter father is not anything like that. Love does not hurt! Much love to you
Thank you for your honesty.
Wow! U are amazing. I love u!❤
Amen! ❤
Never envy someone else’s relationship!
Never envy the fact that someone has stayed married for decades!
You have no idea what happens in those relationships!
A broken mean man can not be healed.😢 I know from.
Yes they can....ik ppl who have and that was through therapy
. . . gotta leave like a thief in the night!
Nothing is too hard for God he can be delivered and healed from anger in his pass. This is trama and it’s spilling over in his marriage.
he has to want to be healed but like a crack addict, it takes them hitting rock bottom, losing everything and facing themselves and getting to that unhealed little kid inside of them. Its a lot of work but if one is willing, one can overcome. 'IF' is the factor
My husband showed his true face on the day we got married just a few hours after the ceremony!
Annulment sweetie the same day also.
Probably before, but you made excuses/overlooked it.
Yep mine too
Theres ALWAYS warning signs before marriage we just hate admitting to it, God always warns us!
I don't agree. There Were NO red flags until I could no longer work and had a baby. THEN he showed his true side. Don't gaslight women into believing it's their fault for not reading signs THAT WERE NOT THERE. Were talking about men who mimic empathy and positive emotions because they've modelled their behaviour to mask the lack of humanity they possess.
Don't double penalise women. God I hate it when people do this.
I am a survivor of two husbands who abused me. What I learned was that ANY type of abuse, whether it's verbal or physical, left unchecked, only escalates. I wish I could tell every young woman: Get yourself educated so you have something to fall back on before you start popping out babies, because if you choose the wrong guy you may be setting yourself and your children up to be trapped in a living hell.
So happy that you and your children are free of that man.
PROTECTING YOUR KIDS...IS LEAVING AN ABUSIVE PERSON ‼️‼️‼️🥰
I'm so glad you got out of this situation alive. 🙏
Right!!! She stayed 24 year's of mental/Psychological way way too long I no she on Benzodizpan 💊💉 or antidepressants..
My husband never physically abused me but the other behaviors she speaks of i can definitely identify with. It was not easy, but I decided to love me more ❤️
This is why everyone needs to have their own money!!!!!
I am so glad you made it out safely. I started sharing my story on my channel as well. I married an emotional, mental, and verbal abuser. He was even a suspected serial killer, my name was all over newspapers. My children and I went through hell. By God's grace my children and I made it out safely. Thanks for sharing your story, It does help someone. Stay blessed.
Praise GOD u and the blessings are safe!
the legal system has to answer for the fact that this man bonded out the 1st time he was caught, he had a restraining order yet he still finds her, he DROVE A CAR INTO HER and tried to KILL HER and the most he gets is 9 YEARS. he should have been sent away for 30 YEARS TO LIFE the 1st time he choked her out
So forget due process for an allegation. Should it be the samething for women
@@fitzgeraldsemelfort3938Stop the tit for tat BS We are discussing this woman's story. Abuse is abuse so yes it should be the same, unless it's a case of self defense. Does that always have to be stated every single time a woman shares her experience?
I understand her completely when she says she was scared to be on her own. Not scared to be alone, just on her own cause she's never been on her own. I was finally able to leave my abusive relationship 6months ago and even tho it was scary I've made it. It's been a struggle but I made it and we're(me & my 3 boys) doing fine.
Congratulations 🎉🎈🍾🎊 and May GOD bless you and keep you safe.
Our God is our help, We got to want his Help And move on it, God Bless You all Remember who truly love us all
💕💕💕💕💕
Keep going, be encouraged, but don’t look back. I’m so proud of you
I would sue the lousy judge that let him out of jail for attempted murder!
This is common and still done in courts
@@miraclesforus exactly most the times they actually are happy when women are victims in these type of scenarios women need to realize we are living in a failing patriarch.
This woman is my hero!!!! I am amazed at her strength and courage to fight for her life and get away from that man. It takes many times for DV survivors to break free of the abuse. This true story will save lives.
Yes and the worst part is when they turn it around on you and make out you are the abuser and people start to believe it and isolate you and get away with abusing you some more and even when you use self defence and the police don't even believe you and you end up homeless and looking like the narcissit which you are not..😢
I'm sorry this happened to you, Mrs. Atkinson.
I am so sympathetic towards women who were with their abusers since childhood. This is a very different situation from a grown woman who got with an abusive man after ignoring all the red flags. I admire her courage, that she told the story objectively without begging for sympathy, and that she found the strength to leave. I’m glad she is happy and is sharing her story. What an incredible woman.
Ignoring red flags. They maybe red to you by some people do not know what is considered as a red flag because of what they have been conditioned to in their childhood.
It is a miracle that you are still alive. Such an inspirational story.
To the Most High Be the Glory🙌✨✨💟
❤🤗 your story is so encouraging. I too am a survivor of DV and never thought I could escape my husband. And I had to make the hardest decision of my life to leave him while pregnant with twins as he was making it unsafe for me to carry my babies. The shelter took good care of us during that transition 🙏🏽 anyone reading this know that there is help out there and you deserve peace and happiness away from your abuser. Please make your plan to escape quietly. God bless you.❤
My mother lived the same life. He his dead
I joined in the fights to help my mother
I don’t blame you!! I would have helped my mom too!
people don’t change.
very inspiring ❤
Incorrect; some do. If one can identify the origin of their pain and desire to address it then healing will begin. The biggest room in EVERYONE'S life in that of IMPROVEMENT. Hurt people hurt people. Their behavior is a mirror's reflection of their dark and vacant, shattered inner self. Remember, injured little boys and girls grow up to be wounded men and women. They too need rescuing.
Some do
What a monster! I am glad she is alive to tell her story. Let it be a lesson to other women.
The part about him not wanting to help her cleanup I can relate to. I remember my ex saying she wasn't gonna help me with anything else after she offered to help. I already had plans to just do it myself. It's like they gotta put on an act like they're doing what they're supposed to, but then make you feel like you don't deserve it.
Yup. Was in the hospital with a covert and he came to visit every day (was in there because I got sick due to him) and he told me "I'm only here because it's my duty, I want you to know that" He also was in the ER room with me when I came in in an ambulance and I was so afraid my pulse was on 166. He told me in the ER-room after they drew blood and the nurse left, laughing "Haha, you should have seen your arm, the blood spurted in an arch onto the floor when she tried to take a blood test!" Which made me even more afraid. He enjoyed my panic. They enjoy watching us suffer, they're sadists.
But get this: God sees and hears, he has been homeless the past 2 years. He now wanders the streets looking for shelter and his own family doesnt care about him bc his father is a hyper controlling psychopath and his mother destroyed by his father and his sister got the hell away from it. So yes, God does punish these..beings.
@@Vixinafulyou're right. God sees all. They're definitely getting their karma and us victims/survivors don't have to lift a finger.
@@taneshaW181 Yeah, I feel kind of bad for them though because God punishes in ways where even I feel sorry for them. Narcissism and psychopathy are due to brain damages so..I do feel bad but at the same time they hurt us so badly. But yes; the prefrontal cortrex, amygdala, insula, right frontal lobe and hippocampus are not functioning which is why they behave bizarre.
@@taneshaW181 Yeah I was so angry after my second last narcissistic contact but then Ive watched all of their lifes (from afar) and whoa.. They really crumble. They REALLY crumble. It's like theyre cursed or maybe they do it to themselves. But their lifes do fall apart in the worst of ways. One was murdered, another became homeless, a third is 40+ and lives with his parents and so on. Just watch them, follow their lifes as closely as you can without being in contact with them, and you'll see the horror..
@@VixinafulThose conditions never stopped people from getting psyche counseling if they REALLY wanted it before the next their next violent episode.
The first time a man I was dating threatened my life I was in court the next morning to file a restraining order. I did not wait for him to hit me. Months later he did something worse to another woman and was sent to prison.
No one will ever understand unless you’ve been in an abusive relationship. Full stop…
It’s never too late to leave 💕
If the abuser delete the person....it's too late
Amen!
You’re a triumph, Rosalyn. Thank God you lived to see better and brighter days. So glad you’re in a healthy relationship now, and that you were able and willing to share your story to give hope to others.❤
My mom went through this and so did I! Thank God not anymore!!!
😢 grateful that she is 1 of hundreds of thousands who “made it out” alive to tell her story
I think because certain women are naturally caring and nurturing, we feel like we can save our abusive partners. We sacrifice ourselves because we don't want to believe that they can't be saved.
PLEASE LADIES - THEY CAN'T BE SAVED. You and your children are worth so much more. 💕
My husband is on probation for something he did years before i met him.. but since he’s been physically abusive to me for years im about to be the reason he goes to jail and hes begging me to not tell the police! These demons make u feel so guilty for crap they brought upon themselves
Im currently praying for God to either show me *more* signs that i should tell the legal system the truth OR should i lie and pretend nothings happened in submission to my cruel husband.
@@saintamerican6105 I think you found it. RUN!
U gave me hope queen! I recently left a VERY abusive relationship for 15 years and 2 boys... U have helped me that there is hope after because right now I feel like there is none. Anyone else feeling that way please reach out to me because I feel so lonely and scared... Thank you for your story sister ❤
I can’t personally relate to your situation, but I am rooting for you. I pray that you and your boys find the safety, peace, and happiness you deserve. You are worth it and you got this.❤
Hey I’ve had a small scale version of what you went through (shorter relationship, no kids) and I’m so proud of you for leaving!! Best thing I ever did. Was so scared and had zero self esteem at the time, 8 years later and I’m still damaged from it. But we deserve more. Your beautiful boys deserve more. Well done sis. I don’t know how to message on RUclips, but reach out if you want any moral support or a chat ok x
WHAT LEVEL ABUSE YOU SUFFERED?
I left my husband after 17 years
and dated him 7 years before marriage
Night of our honeymoon. was the 1st time I heard him curse.
I WAS SHOCKED.....THE MAN I THOUGHT I JUST MARRIED WAS NOT THE SAME MAN I BROUGHT HOME.
@@alynegroovinoldskool70s49 beatings, horrible beatings, times I thought that was going to be the end of my life until I started stepping up for myself and pulling knives out to protect myself and boys because I wasn't going to die in front of them like that! Of course verbal and mental abuse but I just thank God I'm still here and fighting
@@youbettertapethis ❤️
I was 15 when I got married got smacked everyday took it 4 yrs when I took off to my grandparents home no TV pad locked in my home on my twins 5th birthday he was shot and killed over a stolen vehicle married 3 more times all 4 alcoholic s died now I'm married happily 10 yrs I'm 66 yrs old
Give your life to Jesus. He loves you and paid the price for our sins, so we don’t have to go to hell, if we are sorry for our sins, confess to him that we’re a sinner, and ask him to forgive all our sins. We all have sinned. Then get baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you’ll be saved, if you put your belief in Jesus to save you.
Thanks for sharing your story. You were a child of 15 when you first got married yet you found the strength to leave. Good for you on your current marriage.. May you continue to thrive.
Why marry so many times? it seems you never took time for yourself by yourself
@@jasminek6632 Yeah unfortunately, some people don’t learn right away. It’s hard for people to break away from dysfunction. It takes you to honestly get tired of the bullshh
What a powerful story!
Praise God, you have come through it all and are helping others 😊
I am so thankful you survived ❤ what a hard journey you have lived
Always against DV to the day I die!!
My sister was murdered at the age of 36. Born February 16, 1958. Town of Nogales Arizona. Her death was classified as a suicide, place of death Tucson Arizona, her ex-husband after her 6 months of divorced Jesus Vega 3rd was a violent man toward her and 3 children, he was never a suspect. There was a bribe with the detective at the scene. 3 years later, the tuscon police officers I spoke to concluded he had murdrred her. I decided to investigate her case. I would personally like to thank the officers, even though the department decided not to investigate and that she took her life. Domestic violence was very present, very much for 15 years of her marriage. My family were cowards not to do NOTHING. Not out of fear but out of hate toward my sister. Reason i think he murdered her because he is a pedifile abusing her and their kids sexually. He attempted to muderer her when the kids were little, then tried to take out his children by poisoning them with an overdose of asprines. He is free. It's been almost 24 years of her passing. ❤
Thank you for sharing. May the spirit of God continue to move over your sister's matters, exposing truth everywhere its been concealed. Amen ❤
I am so sorry for your loss
That you're alive and "normal " is an incredible miracle
I was in an abusive relationship for a year and it was horrible. I am glad you got away from that. I can’t imagine 24 years.
You are awesome! Thank you for sharing your story!
Bless you mama and glad your out, alive and safe🙏🏾
Thank you for sharing your story. Abusers wear the nicest "mask". Not your fault that you fell into his evil web of lives. So glad you got out victorious.
Recently my son's wife called and told me he physically abused her, she has left him. I let him know I would not support him putting his hands on any woman. He has never seen me abused by my ex-husband or anyone. he suffers with mental illness but that is no excuse. Abuse affects not only the victims of abuse but the abusers family suffers also. I pray for him to get the help he needs to end his abusive behavior. ❤
THANK GOD FOR MOTHERS AMEN THEY ALWAYS THERE UNTILL THE END NO MATTER WHAT 🙏🏼 ❤
What a blessing for her to still be alive to share her story. This touched my heart because there are so, many women out there who need to hear this. You are not alone, and you can still be happy while being here on earth. God Bless you, Ms. Rosalyn Atkinson.
Lord what a story have a granddaughter that will be 13 cant imagine none of this at the age at 13. To God be the glory.
You should be very proud of yourself! God bless you.
Love doesn’t hurt, hate does. We need to take accountability at some point.
SO PROUD OF YOU, MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER 😢
We are proud of you. Can't focus on how long you stayed or why, Just know that I'm so happy that you eventually realized your worth. God bless you for sharing your story. Your ex was an evil coward. His family should be ashamed of him.
Thank you so much for sharing your story! Your courage is inspiring. Continued blessings to you and yours! 😇😇😇
Oh my God! He hated women! I’m so sorry you endured that! Many thanks to God for saving your life and getting you away from that deranged monster!
I’m so happy you’re happy now. I was there as well. I’ve been gone 25 years now. I still have nightmares.
Thank you so much for sharing this story. I am just sharing my experience on my channel. I left in 2016. Thank you so much for your bravery.
He hit her before they married, but she says that after they married "things took a turn for the worse." So the premarital beating was tolerable, in her eyes.
Don't judge
@@ceceprincess4758 Everybody judges, including you and the victim. She judged that man as worthy when he was worthless. No self esteem cost her decades of abuse.
It's like getting your behind beat is a rite of passage. This is so disgusting. And I'm tired of only blaming the abuser. Nicole Brown Simpson married OJ of getting her ass beat multiple times.
Makes no sense!
Exactly!!! Then she brought kids into this world of BS very selfish 😢
She was a teenager she was manipulated
How does anyone stay in an abuse relationship for 24yrs? Makes no sense to me
Absolutely No sense at all!
I'm so sorry for what happened to you thank God that ur ok sis I love you ur a strong Blk woman 🙏💯💐🌹🌷
Too many women aren’t independent and that’s the reason why men take advantage of them and abuse them. Too many women think they have no way out. But most all it takes is getting up and leaving. Even if it means being homeless. Bad times will always pass and it will eventually get better for you but only you can make that change even if it will not be easy. Just get up and leave!!! Don’t turn back! Just move forward and look forward.
Yes all that is true. But its mainly an emotional thing keeping you there. You love this person. Your mental state is so damaged that you get used to living in the dysfunction as this woman says. It’s so true. Trauma bonds are very real. Its hard when your protector is also your abuser. Then your self esteem is so low you don’t believe you deserve better. It is often a process to leave . Everybody’s story is different. When you are out it doesn’t even make sense to us why we stayed so long and we feel like idiots. None it makes any sense even to the victim until much later. I always say there is no point explaining it because if you havent been through it you wont understand.
Also. Please don’t undermine the FEAR. It is dangerous for these women to leave these men, and ask for child support or alimony. These men will kill them or put hits on them. Happens more often do you think. I know it’s dangerous to stay, but it’s dangerous to leave too. They need a PLAN.
If a woman isn't independent, she shouldn't even get involved with anyone.
She was with him since childhood. A very different situation from a grown woman who chooses and stays with an abusive man. She was terrified because she literally had never been independent as an adult. I can empathize with that.
If it was just me, but I have a baby
Its still amazing you still look good after what you have been through!!!!😊😊😊 Thanks for sharing your story!!
Thank you Jesus 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I have said that so much to my daughters Thank you 🙏🏽 they are not in that situation however I always let them know that They cannot change aGrown man!! Thank you for sharing your life story with us Blessings to you and your family ❤

*...Learn to function into dysfunction* this is the real reason why most people stay in toxic relationship. They think it is kind of normal to go through non sense.😢 Unfortunately kids are enduring parents immaturity it is so messy. Thank you for sharing your story.

Every time the police is looking for him. His punk behind always run.
Thank God for your life! This gave me chills! I've met some abusive men...But I am currently 50ish, & alone by choice, & alive & self sufficient, HAPPY WITH THE JOY OF THE LORD BY HIS GRACE! GOD BLESS YOU & YOURS!
$500 bond for nearly chocking a woman to death is a joke. You have to say to yourself these judges are barely human and are complicit in murders.
Thank you for telling us your story. Thank God you survived!!
Truly sorry for all you went through. Let this be a lesson to anyone . I thankfully got out my before our 3rd anniversary, cause I knew it wasn't going to get better. Thankfully you lived to be able to escape. He wanted you dead for sure. God bless & pray life is treating you well. 🙏🏽
5:32 Many women think they can fix a man or he will miraculously be nice.
Clearly that is never the case.
Vigilance and warning signs are essential
God Blessed you with strength to share your story. Hopefully it helps many abused women. Be Blessed and stay Blessed.
The whole assault then attack with the car was directly the result of the "system" and the Judges not taking your D.V. and other victims seriously. It is appalling how many victims are crippled or die as a result.
WOW. You were battling thyroid cancer and he did that. I’m so glad you aren’t in that situation anymore ❤❤❤❤
You suffered but came out a better person loving mother and friend to many. Plus you married the real man of your dreams. Congratulations! Your store is powerful.
Your story hits so close to home for me. I’m glad you can talk about it now. I stayed in a marriage for 28 years with mental and verbal abuse . Even though I was doing everything in the home and family wise I didn’t realize I could do anything alone until one day I went to visit my daughter without him and I couldn’t go back home. The divorce was an event also.
Thank you for sharing

So glad you got away and are safe! Blessings!
