  1. Today would have been my 15th anniversary with him if I'd have stayed. 12 and a half years free. Scary what might have been. But being free of two abusive partners is better than I thought it would be. There is still some lingering fear of course, but I cannot imagine myself in a healthy relationship. I am not mourning the failed relationships but the potential for love.

      You have been brave to leave abusive partners. They were never worthy of you. I do think there are good people out there, many who would be loving and kind. The challenge is to figure out who they are.I haven't mastered that, so I understand the mourning of the potential for love. You deserve better. We all do.

      Thanks Mary. I know there are good people out there, they just don't want to ever be with someone like me. I agree we all deserve better.

      Personally, I think there are three types of people we come across.

      1. The bad.  
      2. The good that may be scared off by the issues and struggles we have (or even maybe their own). 
      3. The good who would look past the issues and struggles we have and see our own goodness.

      I am certain it's this third group that we have difficulty finding. I have experienced the second group, too, so I do understand how you may come to believe that. It would be nice if GPS existed that hones in on that group #3, as it would give us more hope that there really is potential out there for us.
