4 Lessons I Learned from Leaving a Toxic Relationship
“It takes strength and self-love to say goodbye to what no longer serves you.” ~Rumi I promised myself at a young age that when I got married, I was not going to , no matter what!
My parents had divorced when I was five, and I knew that I didn’t want to put my kids through what I’d experienced as a child who grew up in a “broken” family.
I wanted my kids to know what it was like to live in a house with both their parents present and involved in their lives. So, when I found myself seven years into my marriage, sitting in a therapist’s office wondering if my husband and I were going to make it, I had no idea what I would be facing if I had to navigate life, let alone parenthood, without my husband.
How does one break free from emotional and verbal abuse without it permanently affecting who they are as a person?! All I could think about at the time was my three beautiful girls, who deserved to have happy parents in a happy home living a happy life! From the outside, our lives looked that way, but our reality was nothing of the sort.
