Should you have walked away from him sooner?
Instead, think about how much time you aresavingyourself now that you are through with him.
You dont have to justify yourself to them.
God & Man
You should stop being embarrassed about how long you dealt with his bullshit.
You should stop calling yourself an idiot for not seeing the signs sooner.
You should stop criticizing yourself for making mistakes in the past and start congratulating yourself forwaking up.
You could have stayed trapped with him for much longer.
You could have wasted another month, year, or decade of your life with him.
You should be proud of yourself for getting away.
You should be proud of yourself for realizing you deserve more.
Not everyone has as much strength as you and dont you dare shake your head.
Dont you dare argue about being called strong.
It doesnt matter how many times you forgave him for cheating or lying or screaming.
Despite what happened before, you are strong for living without him now.
You are strong for deciding you have had enough of him.
You cannot keep moping over how much time you wasted with him.
You have to make the most of your time without him.
You should also recognize your time was not completely wasted because you learned from him.
You learned you should not put your whole heart and soul into a relationship where you are theonlyone giving.
You learned you should listen to your head over your heart when they are pulling you in separate directions.
You learned you should raise your standards and your expectations for how you should be treated in a relationship.
You learned you are better off loving yourself than chasing someone else in the hopes they will love you.
Most importantly, you learned you deserve respect.
