I'm happy to see you here. Only your first post needed approval, so whatever you post now will publish immediately. You do have to be careful about what and how you write. It's taken me a long time to put up this blog, and I still feel hesitant to write in it. There's this fear of being discovered and what the ramifications would be. But I do feel compelled to speak out my story, because I think it really needs to be told. What hurts us most is this feeling of being alone, and that awful feeling of being slowly driven crazy. When other people share their stories of craziness, then you begin to realize that yes, someone is crazy...and it isn't you! So, I'm curious...how did you secretly move out? Did you have to leave when he wasn't home? Don't feel bad about how you did it. The fact is that you did it! It takes a lot of courage to get out...and sometimes ingenuity. Because when you're dealing with people who will not react or respond like a normal person, sometimes it takes un-normal means to save yourself. So congratulations on your escape! Hope to learn more about you. :-) Hi, and welcome, JustMe! I’m happy to see you here. Only your first post needed approval, so whatever you post now will publish immediately.

I read your story and how it was hard to leave. I understand. I had to secretly move out. That was one of the hardest things I ever had to do. That was 2 years ago. And only now do I understand what is wrong with my ex it all makes sense now. It is a lonely road..sometimes you feel like you are going crazy, when it is him intentially doing it. I am so gratefull for finding this website and I hope to learn much more...thank you for sharing your story. I will be posting much more.
