We were high school sweethearts. I knew he
was going to be the man I marry. For me the
abuse started in our relationship in high school.
There were times when we would argue and he
would hit me to shut me up, but I deserved it.
At
least that was how I felt at that time. No one
deserves to be abused. During the end of my
senior year I got pregnant with our first child.
Even after our first child he would still hit
me
and each time I thought it was because I could
not keep my mouth shut. A couple of years later
we got married and I was pregnant with our
second child. Things were getting a little better,
my family took me in after a big fight me
and my husband had. There
were so many
times I left him and so many times I kept
going back.I loved
him so much I could not
leave him no matter what. Until our youngest
was about six months and our daughter was
about three. We got into a huge fight and my
daughter saw it, she started to cry and yell.
That was when I decided it was time for me
to leave him. I put out a restraining order
against
him and moved in with my mom in another state.
Months later he found
me and begged he would
change. I told
him only if he would get help and
he agreed. As of now we are together abuse free
and my kids and I are much happier. |
