I was in an abusive relationship for 4 years from age 14-18.... I left this person about 1.5 years ago and I’ve been in a new relationship for almost a year now. But honesty I’ve been having kinda a hard time figuring out how to act in this relationship. I feel like I’m pushing him away. I don’t know what’s okay and what isn’t and I over-react to little things. I’m honestly just all kinds of broken and I don’t really know how long it will take for me to be better. I was in a relationship with this person for my ENTIRE teenage life and I feel like I’m still mentally figuring out how relationships work... I give my (new) bf credit for stupid things like “well he could have hit me or beat me up for that but he didn’t... he only called me a bitch” ... just dumb stuff like that. I was so mentally fucked up I thought no one would ever love me again & now he does or did.. but I feel like I’m messing it up.
