For the longest time I blamed myself and thought I was stupid for not getting out any sooner. Deep down, I was just afraid. Afraid of him and his threats and what would happen to me, if I tried to get out. I was so afraid that I didn't even go to the police. This is how terrified I was of my ex boyfriend. Now I feel a lot happier with myself and I'm still healing from everything I've been through. One good thing is that I'm much more positive now, than I used to be and I set healthy boundaries.
