I'm really sad to hear your story. It's similar to my own but thankfully despite the years of abuse I haven't had any children. I can only imagine how your heart is breaking. I'm living in my 4th domestic violence refuge. Only three years running so nothing compared to what you've been through. I know how alone it feels. I want to say something to make it better but all I can say is hold on. You're stronger than you know.
Thank you. I hope you stay strong too. It's so hard. I hope you can make it through.
wow. reading ur post, if it's true, ur life's straight outta a horror movie hm? Damn like even i don't have much of an advice against ur situation. And wut pisses me off more is that U R THE ONE planning CTB even tho ur treated like crap. like i never tell ppl they can't, but it's just that from ur post it sounds tragic and y should this b the conclusion?
With tht being said i do have a few q's for u, if u don't mind:
1.
Would u tell me how this started? How did u guys get acquainted? How've u been putting up with this for a decade? How is he destroying ur life? And does he hold some kind of leverage/authority over u that ur not able to escape?
2.
How many kids do u have in total? Were the previous pregnancies from r**e as well? Have u ever thought of following up with ur kids? Ik deep down you'd want to.
3.
R these ppl ur relatives or friends? How does he find and hurt ppl around u? If it's alright w/ u, could u elaborate a little more? Does he isolate u from them? How does he do it? And does he physically abuse u or ppl around u?
4.
I was going to suggest gathering evidence and then report to another cop. Would they care at all?
5.
no problem. I'm hoping i can give u advice based on ur situation and listen to ur story. Even if i can't, i want this story to b a learning experience.
1. We met in high school. He was an adult but just young looking enough I didn't know. We met outside the school so I had assumed he was a student and he was on the hunt for a young person to latch onto. He's got a thing for kids which is disgusting.
I honestly don't know how I've been putting up with this for so long. I guess I'm just not brave enough to end it all yet. I'm sure you can imagine yourself the lengths someone would go to for revenge when angry. He's gotten me locked in psych wards, isolated me from doctors and friends and family, trafficked me to others, set up the assaults that led to my children. Messed me up psychologically to the point I feel I'm not good enough to have family or friends that care and that I deserve to be waterboarded and hung from my wrists in his closet when I hadn't left him back then yet. Now I've left he has resorted to burning doorknobs off my house with acid to get in, constantly trashing wherever I move so no landlord wants me there, finding ways to drug me when I try to go out and enjoy myself. Just so many things.
Where I live being a cop is enough leverage to get police reports and rape kits to disappear. It's enough that I'm the one in trouble even though he's got no marks on him. In the area I live cops are like God. No one is considered as important or honorable.
2. I have 3 kids. All were conceived that way yes. I want to see them but I know it's not safe. I know they'll be in danger if I do find them again because he'll hurt anyone to hurt me. I can't put my kids in danger. I love them too much to do that even though it kills me inside.
3. He is a psychological abuser to my family and friends. Gets them fired from their jobs, files false reports anonymously to get them in trouble with children's services. Leaves dead rodents on their doorsteps. Breaks in and rearranges their furniture like he did with me to let them know he's there and could hurt them at any time.
He finds these people because when he and I first started things were good. I made the mistake of introducing him to people I cared about. Worst choice of my life. He hurts me physically and I know he'd hurt anyone it took to get to me. He has no conscious.
4. Like I said above. No other cops care. They never will. Cops are royalty around here. He has so much power that when I tried to go to a different area to report the abuse he found out and permanently scarred my face by burning me.
This man will never let me go. It's why there's nothing I can do other than end it. I have been told by everyone I try to report it to or ask for help with it from that I'm making it up as there's no way this much torture could have happened to one person and still have me be able to smile and try to live. I was told by a therapist she didn't believe me because no client would be alive still and not have taken their life yet if they'd been through what I have been through. I'm not brave enough to but I know she's right that that's the only way out. Photos don't lie. My domestic violence counselor believes me and has been desperately trying to help me for all these years with no justice or freedom from him in sight. My family believes me and so do my friends. People only believe it when he sucks them into the torture or when they've seen other people who have been abused to this extent that I have been before. My domestic violence counselor said if people actually believed me when I say what I've been through that that would destroy their own sense of safety in this world and that some people are too fragile to be willing to accept this can and does happen. It's terrible. It's happening and because it's too hard for people to accept I've fallen through so many cracks to the point that ending it is the only peace I'll probably ever be able to find.
