Seriously. Because there is only one woman in the world in an abusive marriage. No others. Zero, zip, nada. Just one. |
Not PP, but I'm pretty sure it's the same poster as well. I read the OP and thought "This again?" They post the same thing again and again and again. |
Seriously? Wanting and craving attention like that is so sad. Maybe if she put that energy into her marriage, things might’ve been better. |
+1 |
Yeah, if you haven’t done the work, maybe start there? |
I'm no marriage expert, but I'm pretty sure there are some cases where it really is completely one person's fault. We have no idea of what happened here. Maybe it was him, maybe her, maybe both. |
| OMG are you the serial poster? Seriously, you need to move on and not on DCUM. |
Because they've posted the same thing on here literally hundreds of times. |
And in the exact same manner |
No. |
Same exact thing. Every freaking time. |
PP you replied to. Ah, I don't follow these threads closely enough to tell. It just seemed to me that there were a LOT of alcoholic, cheating husbands. |
| If you are the same poster who's been posting forever: Alanon or Codependents Anonymous. Therapy. Exercise. Gratitude for your health, home, job, whatever shifts focus away from what you don't have. Find hobbies, places, books, experiences, foods, music, feelings that are your preferences and yours alone. |
Apparently not THAT many. I am happy that serial poster is moving on and I wish her the best. I recognize her style too. She uses DCUM as an interactive diary, I guess, and you know what, I have too in difficult moments. It’s ok. Sometimes it does take 6 years to heal. Just keep it moving, OP. |
| As a perpetually single woman, I will tell you that having been married will ultimately help you. People judge the crap out of never-married people. Even having a not-great marriage gives you legitimacy. So do the single thing for a bit and make sure you don't go into something for the wrong reasons or follow the wrong patterns. But know that the odds are good you will find someone. Nearly all of my divorced friends have. Hang in there. |
