Glad you kicked him to the curb, now break his fist so he can't hit anyone else. (metaphorically, of course.) Glad you excaped, no matter how hard it is from here, it's still easier then being there!

Retta, I know the blow hurt. But the blow was struck for freedom! He made a big mistake! Now, never ever let him come back again. Let him rot. Die. Go. Get the hell out. You are too good to suffer this. You are an extraordinary Lady of Poetry. I would be so fortunate to find someonelike you and so would many othes. Bill Hugs

Run away! Fast! This perfectly describes the beginning of an abusive relationship. I'm relieved at the way it ends!
