There were so many things wrong in the relationship, but I felt as long as he held me at the end of the day, they would fix themselves. I purposefully ignored how his words got meaner, how angry he got on the flip of a switch, how restraining me and smacking my hands away would only get worse. I knew I wanted to leave, and maybe his last act of love for me was leaving first. Though I'm terrified, my daily routine has been uprooted and I've been tossed back into the unknown. I hate being here, I'm so young with a whole life ahead of me. That should be comforting, but all I wanted was him to stand by my side and navigate with me. So we could experience it together. I don't understand why he wouldn't just make it work, when he'll be back in a few months willing to try again. But I won't be the same person as the one he left here. At least I hope. :) lol. Everything happens for a reason, keep your heads up

I know it’s terrifying but you’re doing the right thing. You deserve peace not someone who makes you feel small.
I’m so proud of you for recognizing your worth. It’s hard now but you’re gonna come out of this stronger than ever
you’re already winning by choosing yourself. It’s scary now but future you is gonna thank you for this.
It’s so hard to let go of what could’ve been but you deserve someone who doesn’t make you question your worth.

You’re so strong for recognizing your worth and walking away from something that wasn’t healthy for you. It’s okay to feel scared and lost right now, but this is the beginning of a better and stronger version of you. Keep going, you deserve real love and peace
