My abusive marriage ended a little over 2 yrs ago and I haven't had much interest in dating because I've been focused on rebuilding my life. In July one of my close guy friends from HS sent me a message asking how my dad is doing because he saw a FB post I made about him being in the hospital and we started chatting because I had noticed the he and his wife had divorced and I was curious what happened. His marriage ended in a very similar way to mine and he wanted to know how I healed from it because he was still struggling with it. Long story short now we are healing together and it's such an interesting experience getting to know each other again while still having the memories of us from HS but it's also so freeing because he knew the silly goofy teenage me and now 23yrs later he gets to know the silly goofy adult me and I don't have to hide any part of myself from him. And now I'm a witch and energy healer and animal communicator and he's a mechanical engineer so he doesn't understand all the witchy woo woo stuff I'm into but he listens and thinks it's amazing and supports me and can't wait to see what I do with the business I'm building and lets me practice energy work on him whenever I want to try something new. It's been very healing and also very triggering in so many ways because being with a truly good man who likes you after being in a marriage you didn't realize was abusive until it was over is a wild ride.

I feel this so deeply. I'm an artist in so many different modalities since early childhood, constantly wanting to improve and be half decent at all the ways to express one's self. I love vibrant colors, glitter, lights, cool rocks 🪨, keepsakes, scrap booking, photography, ect. In my first marriage, I didn't own paint, I didn't collect anything, he hated glitter, and I got one multi photo frame for my photography but otherwise our home had blank white walls. There was no money (which he controlled) for art supplies but always money for his expensive car parts. In my second marriage, she pushed me to go back to school for art therapy when we couldn't afford it without sacrificing elsewhere, she bought a bookshelf to display my ceramic art that I made over 5 terms, she got a second bookshelf to encourage my budding plant interest and our rock collection, I have a standing art desk in the middle of the living room, our walls are covered in my art, and there's always glitter or a sequin in our carpet no matter how much we vacuum🥰. I healed through art and read a poem about the prior abuse at a public art event with my wife and our friends in the front row, and I had an upcycled suncatcher piece sought after for a local art gallery for SA survivors. In the last 18 months, I've even found the bravery I once had to photograph the brutality of local 🧊 pr0t3sts through tearg@s and other deterrence methods, my wife right there by my side. She never gets mad that I have a billion art supplies now after 8+ years, and she dreams of turning our garage into a home ceramics studio for me. Life without art to me feels like living life with a lobotomy, and it really breaks my heart to know I allowed myself to live that way for nearly a decade for someone who clearly didn't even like me. If my first marriage was black and white with no depth, like a doodle flip book, my current marriage is full of color and movement and happiness on an IMAX screen. ❤️

I grew up with and extremely abusive childhood. I didn't realize I was making myself smaller until on his mugshot page on fb some woman commented "she has no neck". I went and looked back and the pictures and I was literally shinking my neck and shinking myself into myself around him and in every picture we were in together, but it didnt happen in the pics with my bff. For those who don't notice until it's too late, it's okay too. 🖤🖤

Emily | Eating and Roaming :
This is such a profound discovery. When I think about my most unhealthy relationships - those men absolutely demanded that I make myself smaller. When I met my first husband, I was a child prodigy (literally) poised for great things; he demanded, over time, that I become silent and obedient and content with the shadows where only he could shine. With my second, he resented that my career was taking off and took every opportunity to belittle and ridicule me. With my most recent relationship - thankfully not a husband - he demanded that I shrink myself, in the literal physical sense, and as quickly as possible; by the end I was a skeletal shadow of myself and that was almost the end of me. I am immensely grateful that, as much as I thought I was in love with him, I chose myself and my health and recovery. In contrast, when I think back to the happiest relationship I ever had…I never had to shrink anything about myself, physically or metaphorically. His eyes lit up when he saw me, and he celebrated every accomplishment and advancement in my life with unbridled enthusiasm. Sadly, he passed away after we’d been together about 4 years. But that’s the standard, and I won’t ever settle for anything less again, especially after I came so close to not being here anymore.
