Ugh. I am another that you might not expect support from, but here I am! I had a VERY similar relationship, but luckily, I never married the man. It went on for about 10 years and when I started college, I finally became strong enough to walk away and not look back.

That was many years ago, and once he saw me doing so well, he cam back begging. He STILL begs to this day and I STILL ignore it.

You can do it. It might sting at first, but I promise you will look back and thank yourself every day!
