Are we weak? Easily controlled? Stupid?
I don't think so... I think we are strong, kind and loving.
Why do you stay? Not because you're too weak to leave... It's because you can't imagine hurting them! HURTING THEM? Yes, hurting them! That's right the same person that hurts us... Daily, Weekly, Monthly... Year after Year. We can't stand the thought of causing them any pain by leaving them, so we sacrifice ourselves.
Is this right? NOOOOOOOOOO, It is certainly not right... But it also does not make us weak or stupid!
It makes our hearts TOO BIG!!!
But we (Big Hearted Women) deserve the same in return. LEAVE (They are hurting themselves) YOU/we are not the ones hurting them.
Take care of yourself. The man that is worth it; wouldn't let anyone hurt you including himself.
If you don't mean enough to yourself to leave...Find something that makes it important for you to leave. Make someone or something more important than your abuser... Then your self worth will follow. (My BIG wake up call..The thing that was more important than me or him...MY SON) I thank God for him everyday - for he saved my life.
