i am about the same boat but abuse actually makes me physicaly ill and mentally capcitated. yes i got taken advantange of so this is what i do now. you want something from me what are you going to do for me first. this way i wont get taken advantage of again which has pissed off my husband who calls it poly but he dont treat is wives like the poly families i have read about. so at 61 if i can i am selling off everything i have and getting out of this country for i had no opinioin about 911 until i watched nearly all the videos and others. why is it the good people who are loving, kind, compassionate etc. get shit from the assholes. well i am becoming a hermit again but sadly this time i have emotions. numb was better. i dont even believe there is a man upstairs anymore. so now its about me what do i have to do to survive?
