My story is like most. We meet, and for me, I was never interested in being in a relationship so fast. Maybe it was fate. We convinced our first child within the first week we meet. And then he was everything I needed him to be and more. Until he wasn\u2019t. It started with small ways of putting me down as a person, for the choice I make and me as a mother. Which always hurt me the most.
\nHe started accusing me of cheating and he would make up crazy stories, or thangs I would never do in a million years. The verbal abuse got worse. Along came the cheating and lying. He eventually stopped hinding videos and pictures of him with other woman on his phone.
\nI became pregnant again and he left me. He did continue to have a hold over me because I was pregnant with his second child. The stress and the abuse got worse until I miscarried my baby.
\nHe brought me back in just enough for me to move back in with him. The biggest mistake of my life. As 3 weeks in he started to hit me. And he would choke me. The name calling began. He would tell me good bitch. As the constant drug use got worse so did the abuse. It lasted for 8 months. He would go off and attack me the he would take my keys and my phone, or he would break my phone. I was always trapped. I would forgive after the episodes. I was stuck in an endless hell. He has spit on me, he has choked me till I passed out, he hit my left ear so hard I feel like I\u2019m half deaf now. He has punched me in my spine and choked slammed me. He has threatened to take my life.
\nSo much more so many times was I in survival mode and scared for my life.
\nI\u2019m still here today and I got out. After everything I just pray my daughter never has to go through what I did. Her in my arms every night scared for her life as well.
