Girls, I am 60 and have gone through 2 divorces...young ladies, don't waste your years on someone who is a taker...Takers are people who take, your hopes, your self, and your soul...you feel empty and they never give... except to get... remember, this is your life...year in year out, this is your time... VALUABLE TIME because you are valuable...don't waste your time trying to get someone to like and love you...if you have to do that, they are stingy...with themselves and everything thing they own...think smart...learn about yourself and love yourself...your worth it

The hardest part of being able leave is that not many abusers are abusive 100% of the time. There are sometimes 70% good, loving times. But 30% really horrible times.

After 23 years a peaceful home is all I want.

After four years, I left last month. I couldn’t take the blatant disrespect. It was tearing me down badly. Even if there are no other romantic relationships in my life, staying wasn’t tolerable any longer. My mental and physical health were deteriorating. He did it on purpose with no remorse. He enjoyed it. Ocean of red flags and getting worse. Life is better without him.

I broke up with him today. I deserve better. It’s been a rollercoaster. Now the healing begins!

"You can't have a rational conversation with an abusive partner, bc if they recognized they're abusive, they would've done something about it by now" - This really hit home for me. Thank you so much Steph💗

I have had 2 relationships like this. I left both when it became physical. That crossed the line. I am now married to a beautiful man and will be celebrating our silver wedding at Christmas. So yes, you can recover and move on.

This is so hard! I left the abuse 45 days ago. I'm so depressed and constantly think of ending it all. I was isolated in that relationship. I have no friends nor family. I have been my only support through this. I had to move to another town. Sometimes I feel I don't have the strength to continue. I was stripped of my self worth, my soul, my dreams, and even my hope. I don't know who I am anymore. This life seems like a nightmare that I can't wake up from. What little compassion that is left in my heart goes out to all the women who have been through this and made it out alive. I pray we all can heal!!!

Breaking up is hard to do, but necessary to grow.

We have to treat the narc as they are and not as we would like them to be. The lesson for me was to rediscover my own power. I was never truly a victim. I was a willing participant. My narc was a mirror exposing me to my character flaws such as codependency, low self esteem and poor boundaries to name a few. Narcs are predators that don’t get better. The more time you invest in them they become better predators.

I finally left today, finally. I’m not sure what the future holds but I’m ready to see what will happen.

I am 76 and in abusive relationship. Thought I was too old. You have inspired me. Thank you!

Almost 15 years with the wrong man. I knew it from the day i met him that he was probably not right for me, but i was attracted and intrigued. 6 months into it i received the first bit of verbal and emotional abuse, and it began to snowball and became a way of life. I left him the first time 5 years into it, with our 2 year old, and I ended up going back because i had very little to no resources to survive on my own. And then i left again, and came back, and again, and came back. I stayed long enough to finish college and left again, and came back.... and i don’t know what the hell is wrong with me that once i would leave it wouldn’t be long before i felt like i made a mistake, I’d feel guilty, id be manipulated, convinced that we could have so much more together and thinking maybe i didn’t try hard enough. Two kids later and I’m awake to the knowledge that he will never change! He will never grow, he will never be better than what he is. Dominating, controlling, loud, obnoxious, arrogant, demanding, difficult, impatient, judgemental...... and not there for me when I’m sick or hurt. He wants a partner to help with finances and provide sex. But if i need emotional support he can’t be bothered. If I’m sick, it’s all in my head.... if i have a need , I’m crazy!!! I’m sick of it! I’m not needy, I’m very independent, but I’m a human and i need a human connection. This monster isn’t capable of that. All he does is manipulate me into thinking that he’s connecting but what’s he’s really doing is trying to convince me that I’m wrong and that he’s right.

Ok....after suffering for about 3 yrs w this abusive person, ,,,I left yesterday...I prepared for yesterday for a year....I found the strenght to leave .😵😿😥 I couldnt live another day...I was dead...I feel like a shredded piece of rag....Im going to heal and become the person I was before he drained my spirit...it was Soooo bad....I have severe anxiety bcuz of this relationship....I left yesterday while he was at work...I literally escaped...when 3:00 pm comes around everyday my anxiety goes thru the roof...because its the time he is on his way home...I knew that at 3:50 he was going to see my car not there and run in to find I left.I BLOCKED him everyway I could ..I was TERRIFIED...Im now staying w a fam member...but I have to park my car two blocks away so he wont drive around to see if Im at my fam house...the aftermath TRAUMA ,,,Im paranoid he is going to pop up...I promised MYSELF N GOD N MY FRIENDS N FAM I WONT GO BACK...I see a therapist...Im getting my own place in Sept...I love myself enough to know that I wasn't growing and this last time he left me BRUISES all over..where they are visible...☹😔 I had two bruises on my neck ..one on each side...he choked me so bad ..I looked in the mirror and I seen all the bruises and they hurt just as bad as the mental n emotional scars...I said...thats it...I have been thru enough of abuse..from childhood..THAT was the last draw......Now I feel ....heartbroken and happy at the same time..😢...I need to heal...I am very spiritual...its God THAT has guided and given me strenght when I was ready to kill MYSELF.....I dont want young girls to think that its normal to get treated this way......its not...We are not THE PROBLEM THEY HAVE THEIR OWN ISSUES...💖 Stay prayed up..keep God 1st..,God Bless

Nov 2018 i asked for a divorce after being together for 10 years Nov 2019 divorce granted 2021 he is remarried 2021 me still watching these videos to continue my healing journey and be the best ME i can and will be. Thank you Stephanie x

I’ve listened to this video over and over and over. I’ve got money saved, a storage unit, an attorney, and am in weekly therapy. The fear of his words still has power. You said it perfectly so many times here. I feel like I’m living 2 lives and preparing for a war. My narcissistic husband has no idea or faith in my strength. I’m using that to my advantage. I’m so close to being ready to tell him and file. Just need to close up on a place to live (we have a 2 year old) and fighting the fear of hateful words and social media abuse. Thank you for this and all of your videos!!

I broke it off completely after 3 years of an abusive relationship 3 months ago. It was the best decision of my life, that bad situation made me a better stronger person, I have so much more appreciation for good people. I’m now in the healthiest relationship I’ve ever been in. I look at the past as a place of reference not a place of residence.

So so hard when there’s a child involved ☹️

I'm choosing to love myself first... I walked away from the situation plenty of times and today is my new beginning. I've mad a promise to myself that I deserve better. I will replay this video as many times as I need to, to stay mentally strong!

I am planning to leave my physically and emotionally abusive husband tomorrow. Despite all the promises to act better he never changed but I am realising that I am changing. I am turning into a sad and angry person. I am losing my sanity. I can barely remember the last time I heartily laughed which I used to frequently do before meeting him. I believe I deserve better. I deserve to be happy again. God give me strength.

This is exactly what I needed to hear!! I want to move on ... I’ve been in this toxic relationship for 8 years and this video has given me the strength to put a stop to this cycle!

This video literally changed my life. I left my abusive partner and am doing so much better now. Thank you stephanie 💕

I can't stop crying. Everything you say is so accurate and empowering

This video is 5 yrs old and is helping folks in 2023. ❤

The narcissist expects the relationship to end, right from the first day meeting you. They know you're not going to put up with their abuse and manipulation forever. You will leave or at least take a step back from giving them supply, to the point where they are forced to discard you. They know this is inevitable.

Sexlessness. Sharing a bed with someone who doesn’t acknowledge you are a sexual being hurts so much. I was in a sexless marriage for years. Being a woman with a high libido, I felt inadequate. Worst I feel invisible. The man who was “supposed” to want me, just didn’t. We talked about it many times, more than I can recall now. It was always me. I wanted too much - once a week was too much for him. I didn’t initiate - he was always complaining of headaches, stomaches, always stressed, always tired. I was too sexual - when being subtle doesn’t work, what is next? Explicitly saying I wanted sex. Oh but then it was not appropriate. Conversations would end up with him saying he didn’t feel desired or I made him feel emasculated because he didn’t want sex as much as I did. Yeah, it was always me. I could never win. While we were dating we would have a decent amount of sex, it was good. The first huge red flag was not having sex in our honeymoon - which I ignored. It rapidly decrease to once a week, then every other week. Years gone by it was months in between, by the time we divorced it was over a year with no sex. I cried myself to sleep more times that I can count. I didn’t understand what was wrong with me. Was I that undesirable? Was I repulsive? After those conversations, I just stopped trying, initiating, mentioning sex. We were still loving - holding hands, hugging, kissing - but sex was off the table. He then cheated on me. Swore he had sex only 4 times in a year (or more) long affair. It didn’t matter. For years my self worth was damaged by him, years of low self esteem, years of feeling less of a woman, the marriage that was more than over, waiting in hospice, really ended. Funny how things are, I asked him for a divorce, he manipulated me into staying, next day his infidelity came to light. I was out as soon as I could. Best thing of my life. Additionally, That feeling when your partner cheated and you don't have the courage to leave him / her so you just death with the pain and live everyday asking questions about your worth. This pain is different from the cheating one_living and seeing him everywhere anticipating when he or she do it again. The best thing is to hire a private investigator Metaspyhub@gmail. com to help you spy on their cellphone remotely just like he did for me...

We are both toxic to each other. I hate myself and he is a selfish monster from hell.

It feels like someone trying to take everything from you, u r drained Ur souls ur heart ur dream all gone. He stepped on you and mock at everything u ever had.

Hands down one of the best relationship advice videos I've seen. I shared it with a friend. This really helped me today... The hardest part is knowing it's time to walk away when pouring your heart out and trying to communicate time and time again only to be ignored by the person who's never willing to admit their faults, apologize and work on resolution. You know it's over when you finally resort to name-calling because nothing else works, but then you just feel terrible while they continue to ignore you. There comes a time when you just have to respect yourself and your boundaries. Never let someone get comfortable disrespecting and/or disregarding you.

I’m being isolated, doesn’t like me seeing my family, doesn’t want me going to work related things, always thinking I’m sleeping with male dentists that I work with, doesn’t like me calling my kids when they’re with their father. It’s so fucking draining and hard as fuck ! Please lord give me the strength to leave this narcissist

I'm 20 years old and going through an emotional abusive relationship, somehow everything is my fault... My time will come soon

I've been in and out of an emotionally abusive relationship for 6 yrs. I was codependent on him. I wanted to fix him because he was abused physically and emotionally by his mother. She recently passed and it breaks my heart that she left without making amends. So I made excuses for his cheating and at times narcissistic behavior. He's incapable of changing or doesn't want to but I can't do it anymore. I'm learning to love myself and being my own hero. Thank you for sharing.

So true🙌🏻I didn’t realize that he was isolating me!! If I work: where are you!! If I’m home: your always home!!! I have no freedom!! I thought after years of being with a narcissist I would never be in another covert abusive relationship!! There are so many versions of abuse 😔Thank you for this eye opening video 🙏🏻

So today I’ve cried so many times bc, strangely, I miss my abuser. Very similar experiences to you some of those who’ve replied (strangled, humiliated, chased by knives, etc.) Your video gives me strength and hope that I CAN get thru this.

I am definitely going through this process. I been married for 18 years and been solely financially dependent. I am looking for a job, been going to counseling, and working out at the gym to get myself mentally and physically stable to leave. I no longer engage in conversations with my abuser and focuses on myself. Getting money is huge for me to move out and away from his verbal abuse and intimidation. I am ready to leave and live the life I deserve.

After 20 years of marriage, 5 years of dating, endless hardwork and sacrifices, I finally gave up and walked away. I lived with a lazy, self-serving chauvinist pig for the last quarter of century and in my naive crazy head, i thought my love and kindness can change him, but a taker he is will never change. The last blow to my face was that he didn't seem to care that i called it quit. No fights, no arguments, no talks. He just wanted his half of the house equity. The word "self-sooth" really hit home for me today. I am still in disbelieve that I have wasted 25 years of my life on this bastard and his family. Depressed and sad but I have to hold myself up for my daughters. Thank you for your positive message.

I'm so done with him and his shit and abuse. I'm leaving. He has no idea. He has threatened to kill me if I leave, that he will find me. I dont even care anymore. I'm terrified. But I'm also hopeful for a better future. He took everything from me and I'm going to get it back.

People who love you, love you at your core. I am entering a phase of life that includes war. It is not easy.

i had to get out recently. my tears were all down my face! i am so glad that i had gotten out. my ex bf was too much. so many of my friends were telling me to get him out! I didn't know what to do. I called the domestic violence hotline. then i realized how he used me, and take advantage of my emotions. Controlling someone is never normal. i am strong enough to leave that behind me.

If I can financially manage to get out of this marriage, I'm never doing this again.

8 years of marriage and with two young children, leaving my abusive husband finally came. I left by decision and the strength I didn't think I Had, helped me understand it was time to go. It's hard so hard especially trying not to feel guilty for leaving, but deeply I was fed up with the constant yelling, punching holes, put downs, humiliated, breaking things, belittled, etc Day by day I try to Surround myself with people who seem to understand me, and lifts up my spirit. He still believes I'm coming back and says he will change. I still communicate bc we have children together, but he still tries to find ways to make me feel insecure. It takes day by day to rebuild the strength I've lost. To those who haventeft, only you will know when it's time to leave. I'm still trying to fight off the feeling of guilt of leaving but I knox I'm at a better place.

I listened to this this morning . And I am in the middle of the 8th breakup with this man over a 3 1/2 year period. Such turmoil! I almost lost all my friends and distanced from all my family. I felt like I was going crazy. I am 57 years old and can’t do this anymore. Just so hard to stay away from him as he comes back “love bombing”. Thank you for helping me finally moving forward.

I'm struggling hard to stop myself from trying to reason with him. I have to actually say out loud, "you're deflecting, you can't be reasoned with, I don't have the energy for this, etc" and that feels more like I'm being the toxic one. I believe that if I don't say these things out loud though, more for myself than for him, I won't recognize his deflection, that he isn't taking responsibility, that he can't be reasoned with, and I feel it would be more difficult to set boundaries. I'm still learning how to not be baited into arguments with him.

I'm a guy and I sent this to my guy friend who is in a toxic relationship. This video works for ANYONE in a toxic relationship! Thank you for making this!

Needed this. Could you follow up with healing after an emotional abusive relationship?

I'm gay and was in a 6-month relationship (yes, it can get bad in just 6 months and leave scars) with someone who I at first thought was my soulmate. Stephanie is so right about bringing one's own wounds to a relationship that allow you to get hooked and tolerate mistreatment. Mine were about being neglected and ignored. You don't see the red flags or just get confused by them. That guy trashed my self confidence, ability to trust, even my grasp of reality. The preexisting wounds can let you get sucked in even if it's for a week and just make them raw again. And he got nasty, just like Stephanie has said about emotionally abusive people. Do the self-love and growth, like I did, to make sure you never get taken in again. I wish emotional abuse was illegal somehow like physical abuse. A sense of justice would be helpful for me. I still see him around or hear about him once in a while and I don't know how to deal with it. I call him the heart rapist.

Yesterday I broke up with my ex for the third and final time. He was very emotionally abusive as well as an alcholholic. I'm teetering on being strong and having an emotional breakdown. I have to keep my head in the right place or else I'll just break! Luckily I prepared myself for this but definately not easy.

3:46 got me motivated deep in my 46 year old miserable, broke gut...THANK YOU...thank you...I can do this because I deserve better because I AM WORTHY.

Stephanie every time I watch you you say exactly what I went through 3 years ago. There is no rationalizing with them. I was a “terrible person, selfish person, the child is going to hate me, la la la”. I heard it all and it was awful but I ignored it with help. I quickly learned to argue was like arguing with a fence post. You are spot on and I hope this reaches people before they leave so they know what to expect. I had no idea what kind of fire I was playing with but I did it! And made it through it and am very happily remarried now. 🙏

"you deserve better" - how true!!

I can’t thank you enough. I’m sat on the bus crying because I am worthy of happiness. I’m ready. Thank you again.

HAHA! Yes, I've totally been living on KZfaq to prepare myself to make this change in my life! It really has given me the strength to stand on my own two feet. The repetition of listening to these videos from Stephanie and many of the other vloggers has helped me to have the words in my head & heart so I am able to speak my truth when needed.,

😞I'm scared I just can't take it no more I'm pregnant and have no job. I need God to send me an angel Dios protejeme de todo mal

i'm very codependent and have waited far too long to leave my current partner. it's so destructive, so hurtful, and so beyond draining. today is the first day that I have felt some sort of strength to entertain actually leaving him. thank you for sharing this video so much.

Damn that was like a whole season of therapy packed into 15 minutes. Thanks!!!

I’ve been in toxic relationships repeatedly throughout my entire life. Married and divorced only to marry the same person over and over and over again. I didn’t even know that this was a “thing“ until a few years ago. So here I am 12 years into a very toxic relationship and wanting so badly to make it work. It’s craziness I know. Such a hard place to be in when you realize what you’re dealing with but feel you have to try and work it out. Prayers please.

Mentally preparing myself and making myself tough! im ashamed how much i have put up with but financially dependent right now which plays right in to their hands! Thanks🙏

Thank you so much. I just left last night. I havent slept in over 24 hours and I needed this video. It was very soothing too, I've been so anxious all day.

I ended a emotional/toxic abuse relationship. I moved out of the apartment today and my car was stolen all in the same day! I don’t know if my ex partner was involved. But I would not be surprised! I’m proud of myself for still moving out no matter obstacles I faced today

This is one the best Narcissistic/trauma bond related videos I've seen on KZfaq yet. Thanks again for sharing!

... did I say Thank You?... ... I'm so glad you are here ✨

I am so thankful I’ve found this channel. I’ve been wandering in the dark about what to do next and you’ve given me the tools to find myself and I am SO thankful of that ♥️ I’ve always thought of myself as the strong, always stood up for myself, never took crap from anyone person. But when I opened up to this person and he destroyed me to the point of hating myself and wondering why it’s MY fault, I really had to look back at why am I feeling this way? He’s taken my strength and turned it against me. You’ve given me courage to begin the journey of self love and begin the process of leaving. It’s scary but I know the outcome will be a better life for me and my child who does not need to witness his mother being taken advantage of. ♥️

Great video, with a humble delivery, which makes it easier to accept that a "cancerous relationship" can sneak up on anyone.

The first two minutes and I want to be strong enough to leave my relationship. You are right it feels like living two lives, I even want to run away to my country. people have told me to just leave but isnt easy, I feel atached with super glue, but I want decide to leave soon, he told me that If i leave Ill hurt him, that Im a bad person... Thanks for this video, I ll be brave, ill be strong...I want be confident and not going back ....

I spent 5 years with my best friend and boyfriend and then when we had kids he became emotionally abusive I tried to put up with it but I couldn't we broke up for 2 years try to get back together realize he was the same person I have tried to fix what I thought was wrong with relationship and then I realize that I needed to stop going back to somebody's mental abuse it's giving me anxiety and turned me into a different person. Thank you for making this video I needed to know that somebody else went through this so I could know there is a way out.

Thanks... An emotionally liberating topic of discussion. The benefits (of leaving) far outweigh the cost of staying. Every time! Wishing everyone outer peace in their journey to inner peace. ♥️

I cried this entire video. Thank you ❤️ everything you said was right so right! I can’t wait to watch the rest of your videos!

OMG I cannot thank you enough for validating my feelings of leaving my long 5 year emotional and power and controlling abusive relationship 💗

You are a gift to so many of us around the world. 💕 You were born to do this

You come across so professionally. I just want to live without emotional toxicity so often.

it’s so hard to leave when you love that person more than you love your self

Thank you! I had an epiphany with the part about attempting to have a “logical” conversation with a person who is so obviously NOT ready to have one. It’s hard to NOT feel like the @$$hole when “you” finally work up the courage to say enough is enough and I can’t go on with this. It’s feels like ripping out someone’s heart and still feel like it is my fault… the difference is: i blame my self for letting it run so long :(

I just left an emotionally abusive relationship, of course I feel upset now but I realised that I was way more upset and depressed within the relationship. I’m confident I can do this, I will clean the slate and I know I am a strong woman who can do this. Thank you so much, love this video ❤️

This is superb! One must not feel guilty for looking after themselves mentally and physically. If this means leaving someone, then so be it. You will be absolutely fine, the power of the human spirit is immense! Best wishes all ❤

I tried to leave my emotionally abusive relationship yesterday. I was met with a whole range of manipulation ranging from tears to 'im going to kill myself'. I finished the day being swayed and still hanging on. I've awoke to this video in my feed. I now know what I need to do. I need to get out. And it terrifies me. I clicked on further links and learnt about codependency. Ouch. That is me. Discovered for the first time 4 days after my 42nd birthday. Left me, as a grown man in tears. I need to get out today. I'm so scared, despite knowing what needs to be done 😔 Thank u for the advice

Oh my god. I wish I watched this before I tried to rekindle things with my abusive ex. I first saw your other video about why it’s hard to leave an abuse relationship and it hit every nail on the head, I started bawling. These videos help me heal and I’m so glad I found your channel.

Amazing video. Just what I needed to hear. I was feeling stuck in my emotions and this was the validation that I needed to continue to move forward

This video has helped me feel confidence in my choice . I’m on the right path and this video is just locking it in for me. I can not thank you enough.

You have changed my life! You have no idea girl. I’ve spent $1000’s in counselling, I’ve YOU TUBED every possible videos, I’ve watched so much Ted talks and you hit home. Why I don’t know but you did. I’m turning 50 this year and was dating a 39 year old abusive, narcissist. 3 years. He broke my arm, spit, bite, punched, slapped, pulled my hair, insulted me daily (horrendous insults) put a hunting knife to my throat and yet I kept going back. It’s so messed up. I was NEVER abused, my parents were always there and yet I can’t figure out why I can’t let this person go. I’m open to any comments , suggestions and help. I’m turning to God, I don’t know what to do. But thank you for this video. ♥️

If you are scrolling for a good video on this subject, you found it!! This one says it all!

I have started to watch your videos and been in an abusiva relationship for 16yrs. My fear has been how am I going to make it in this world but I decided to go visit a shelter that will help me and my kids. I thank you for your words. I need to do this while I still can.

I definitely have considered the "ride it out" path especially since I am almost 50 and uncertain about my retirement, but deep down I know that is not the answer. This video really speaks to me and I know I'll need to build up the courage to get out. Part of the reason I write it out for the world to see is so that it becomes real and I am forced to address it and for some reason it feels like the right path. I worry about his family hating me. They get to see the "nice" version of him, so they have no idea how rude and mean he really is. I also know he won't leave my house easily. The irony is that everything i own, I got on my own without the help of a man. No man that I have ever dated has truly carried the weight so I'm not sure how the heck my self esteem was low to allow this freeloading loser in my life. I know this happens to a lot of successful women out there, but now it's on me. :(

It's only been about a year and a half and I'm ready for it to be over. I'm really hoping this relationship will come to an end so I can be happy again and work on myself and move on. I feel so tied down and like I can't leave and I'm so young! I'm only 19, I want out. I want to start fresh.

Step 1- Decide to leave. Step 2 - You have to be constantly working on yourself. Step 3 - Be prepared for the backlash. Mentally prepare. Step 4- Spend the time, effort, energy, money and invest in yourself. Heal. Step 5- Surround yourself with your tribe. People who love you, encourage you, and uplift you

You are very good adviser, thank you so much for this video, it really helps me.

Thank you for this message Stephanie. I am getting ready to go into a battle. After 34 years of abuse, I have left. I've been out for 2 months and in a couple weeks I will file for divorce. It's not the divorce that scares me. It's the battles that lead up to it and the courtroom. This is where I believe she will make herself the ultimate victim. It doesn't matter anymore. Freedom is not cheap. This message of yours really helped me . Thanks again, You are a blessing!! Ken Lips

This channel is so important to young women like me who need this information. Thank you for opening your heart to KZfaq and lending an emotional helping hand to these confusing sitiuations that many of us find ourselves in. The moment before leaving an abusive partner is a very dark one. I'm living proof that you can do it, and it took me over five years. You're never alone. ❤

You just spoke to my soul. Thank you. I needed this ❤

Your videos are my lifeline to sanity. I am learning what it looks like to have a “self.” Without these videos, I wouldn’t have a clue as to how to handle this. Thank you from the depths of my heart. ❤️❤️

I’m finally working on breaking free. It’s hard and it definitely painful. I’ve been a husband to a person who has been purely toxic for a very long time. Even now she is working on continuing her smear campaign. It seems like a lonely course at this point. I have been thoroughly triangulated and my emotions are a wreck. This road to healing is important to me now. Thanks for providing your material, its helping me to understand that I was not going crazy.

I TRULY APPRECIATE THIS VIDEO. EVERY WORD YOU SAY HAS DEEP MEANING / IMPORTANCE IN CHOOSING TO END / EXIT THAT TOXIC RELATIONSHIP AND FINALLY STARTING TO LIVE MY LIFE AWAY FROM THIS TYPE OF ABUSE. I AM THE SWEETEST MOST LOVING SOUL, WHO DISPLAYS THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF L_O_V_E / CONCERN AND GET THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF THAT EVERY SINGLE TIME. I HAVE BROKEN MY OWN HEART / MIND FOR STAYING THIS LONG WHEN I'VE ALWAYS SEEN / KNOWN THIS WASN'T RIGHT FOR ME 💔 I'VE ALMOST LEFT ENDLESS TIMES THIS PAST YEAR. I HAVE DECIDED TO L_O_V_E MYSELF WITH ALL THE LOVE I ATTEMPTED TO GIVE SOMEONE ELSE ❤

After 14 years with a narcissist I moved on to someone emotionally abusive. I stayed in that relationship for a year and a half until he made me afraid for my life. I am ready to start living for me. Thank you for validating me and helping me feel I really did the right thing

These videos have been my life line ! They have given me the strength to get out , even if I have to go to a hotel .

I needed this!! Thank you. Im so glad I found you!! Im dealing with trying to end a relationship like this at the moment...so thank you so much ❤

I needed this. I’m on brink of leaving 25 year emotionally abusive marriage and I’m looking for motivation. you spoke exactly to what I’m going through.

leaving after 22 years probably the hardest thing I have ever done! I know I deserve so much better. I was having an anxiety attack when i started this video. you calmed me down and reaffirmed my feelings thank you so much

Thank you. I’ve been in a very dark place this past few days, and this video has REALLY helped lift me again. You’ve reminded me that there is a light at the end ❤️

Mrs. Stephanie Lynn You are such a life saver. Thanks for you kind words. I felt so guilty about wanting to leave especially since me and my husband have a newborn but thanks to your videos I feel so much more confident about my future. Stay Blessed and Thanks Again🌝🌝

Now I can see why KZfaq has been recommending your videos to me for months. I just didn’t watch them but now I’m blown away. You’ve completely blown my mind with your intelligence and insight

I want to thank you for your video. It is so true that when you decide to let go of emotionally abusive relationships, the possibilities for meeting people who resonate with you in a more positive way happens. This is my experience and I am so grateful for it. I hope this message gives other people courage to do the same.
