My Gay Divorce
Domestic Abuse
Here we go then, I am sorry I have not been around for a while my friends I am going through a divorce, my partner and I split up two weeks ago after six years together. The relationship died between us is what I tell people because I cant come to terms with the truth.
I read a text on the internet about domestic violence in gay relationships, and yes it does happen, I began to compare my relationship to it, my god I thought this is me. I have been abused by the one I called my partner. The one your supposed to love and their supposed to love you but when you find out that they just want to control you it hurts. Seemingly my partner thought that he could be give me emotional abuse and then blame it on the alcohol and say that he cant remember, he has done this for 6 years now and only i was not aware at the time just what he was doing. They set you up to make a bad decision, and hold it against you, they knock you down and bully you and then treat you like dirt for ages yet when you confront them they twist it to be your fault. I read on and then I noticed some thing else that bugged me, of course we go on forgiving them and they behave perfectly for a little while but dont be fooled by it guys its just a ploy to soften you up, then they will be back at you worse than ever. I got out just in time and safely away but all I can think to myself is why? Why have I let myself endure this, why did I let him do this to me, how could I have been so blind?
I am not blind now, I am miles away and safe, he is not even bothered that I have gone, I believe he has taken to his alcohol as usual, well please your self but guys and girls when your reading this please please report it and get out of there mine was only emotional abuse but in some cases its worse and it can take the form of physical abuse and even death.
The link I read was this one below It opened my eyes to the truth.
