Good evening everyone. I am requesting prayer for myself. I recently got out of an abusive, toxic relationship with my daughters dad. For whatever reason, I feel sad. He hasn’t called to check on our daughter in two weeks. I’ve tried to make our relationship work but now I feel I was just being used. I feel he really does not love our daughter or me. I’m trying to move on but my heart feels heavy some days.
I am so sorry for what you are going through. I've been through the same thing, trust me, you did the right thing. No one deserves to be abused in any way, including you. What you are feeling is totally normal, you loved this man at one time, and to some degree you still do. You will feel some anger for the way he treated you, but don't think he will change, they almost never do. You'll feel rejected, unloved, unlovable, but that is the result of his abuse of you. Focus on healing for yourself, and your daughter. Focus on the two of you having fun, learning, growing, becoming a happy, well adjusted family of two. Lean on God for guidance. Prayers!
