Had a setback today. I left the day before & he asked me to come home and I did. Now what is this cycle? How do you unlearn it? How do you just leave without scarring the kids with all the back & forth? #hurtandconfused

i went through this with my ex. the leaving wasn’t the hardest part the staying gone was. i kept thinking it’d finally be different. it never was. sending you so much love.

this hurt to read. it’s not just leaving it’s the guilt the kids the hope. i see you.

that back and forth is exhausting. i used to go back every time he said the right words. it wasn’t love—it was the cycle. breaking it nearly broke me, but staying crushed me more.

i wish i had the courage to break it, i know it’s a cycle and it drains me, but i’m scared to leave.
