Mitzi,<BR>I feel like I know you so well. Although I did not expierence the physical violence to that extreme....I know how it feels to still love someone who does that. I know how it feels to feel used, old, unloved, but loved. It is so weird. I begged and begged my H to come home. I thought it would be better to walk on egg shells all the time than to be alone and I always held out hope he would be the person he used to be. I am on the board of Domestic Violence in my county. I feel so close to you....understand how you felt/feel and know the confusion it causes.<P>E-mail me sometime if you need to talk<BR>Kenizanasshl@aol.com<BR>Nancy

Nancy,<BR>It is an awful feeling when you love someone so much that you are willing to sacrifice your whole being to prove that love. <P>You would not believe the feeling of freedom I have since I made an appointment with a lawyer. I can't walk on eggshells anymore. I did that for too long and up until last week, was willing to do it some more. <P>God, this place is almost as good as therapy!!<P>Thanks for the support!<BR>Mitzi
