His nasty ways have made me stronger

I won't bore you with the whole details of my (ex) relationship. Bc I'll be here typing until the new year, but let's just say it was toxic, abusive mentally, emotionally and physically. I won't sit here and make myself sound like an angel Bc I've said and done horrid thing as well. A lot of times in self defence, but whatever, it still happened.

We're still living together at the moment for a few reasons I can't get into, not to mention its Xmas next week and I'm not dragging our kids house to house at this time of year. But I've made arrangements to move out the 27th of this month after the kids have had their Christmas etc.

So over the years this 'man' has hit me so many times and always made me feel like I was imagining it happening or making it up. Like if I bring it up he turns it around on me and says it was me, or says it didn't happen. Tonight we got into it yet again and he said the usual 'I hate you' 'you're ugly' bla bla. He said he wants me out after Christmas (he owns the house), so I messaged my mother to make arrangements to go stay with her after Christmas. He then said I was childish for doing that (messaging my mother) and getting her involved. I can't win!! I was like "you have literally just told me to be out after Christmas, I'm making arrangements to do just that!" I can't just turn up on my mother's doorstep with me my kids and loads of furniture without warning!! Then he says I'm useless, pathetic and need to sort myself out. I'm sure me making arrangements to leave IS sorting myself out 🙄 and he said I always rely on people and can't do anything by myself. Keep in mind for 6 years of our relationship I was the one keeping a roof over HIS head! It's only been the last 2 years he's bought this house. I also gave up my job to be a sahm (his idea). But tonight after all the shit he said to me, after I'd finished crying for the millionth time! I thought FUCK YOU!!!! I got in touch with my friend he didn't approve of and made future plans with MY girls to have fun with MY life! I'm done!!!!!!!
