It is really weighing on me today, because I realize just how many of my friends have been insensitive to my abuse.

All of our mutuals, except for one, have been cut off, because they don’t want to “pick sides”.

Okay, go be friends with my abuser, then, and leave me alone.

Or these questions, verbatim -

What did you do that made her want to hit you?

You’re a big guy, it’s really not that big of a deal that she hit you.

She was crazy, you should’ve known that would happen.

I’m tired of people minimizing it because of my gender, my size, and my strength. Nothing entitles you to strike your partner in anger. If you do, you’re a rotten piece of shit.

I am so glad, yet so torn, to have had to remove these people that I truly care about from my life.

It’s like, “Good riddance, I’ll miss you.”

Just needed to get that out. Thanks for reading.
