apple Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 I have broken the relationship off with an abusive partner, have worked through a lot in the last few weeks. I am getting stronger with self-esteem coming back etc. I do not wish to see him any longer and have let him go in my heart. I have no resentments etc. I just want to get my life back together now and look after me. Love me the way I should have been loved in the first place. The issue is I am avoiding him big time, not answering or listening to his messages etc. The only way I can cope at he moment is not seeing him. What I need to know is what do I do next? What if I bump into him (small town), what do I say or do. I am still vunerable so I don't want to put myself in a position of danger. Does anyone know how to approach this issue? I don't want to be mean to him and I don't know if I should give him a 'voice'. Am I just being nasty? Help please.
A Fly onThe Wall Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 You don't have to mean to him if you just ignore him.. ignore all his calls, texts, emails, See.. By ignoring him you are taking control back in your life and kicking the abuser out.. You are not being mean, and if you bump into him.. just say Hi and continue right on.. and if he wants more just say no thanks you've moved on
