I have been dealing with a man who is
killing me. Two years ago, we were tight
for money around christmas time, so I went
to work overnight ontop of my 8 hr work
day. I haven't had friends in years to
make him happy. However, I was going
through some things, he was always too
busy to listen or told me I was stupid, if
I talked to him. At this night job there
were a few of us who talked all the time,
then one night a man spoke to me and just
broke down, he had come from out of state
to try to rekindle a relationship with the
mother of the child and the son. It was a
story kind of dealing with me and my
issues, I was interested in the
conversation, nothing else. I made that
abundantly clear. I told the man that I
was married, even though after 10 years, I
am not, to make sure the understanding was
there that I am only interested in
conversation. He seemed to understand.
One day, this man called and asked me to
meet him out, knowing I shouldn't, I did
because we were co workers and it seemed
safe. I didn't tell my other half, only
because he is jelous of women, I
definatley didn't tell him about a man. I
drove about 30 minutes from my house when
I was suppose to be going to the night
job, met this man and we went to a waffle
house and talked for about 30 minutes, and
his sole concern was, that he felt like a
diappointment and wanted to know if I
could help him get a job? I didn't
understand the urgency of seeing me that
day. We also talked about his
relationship with the mother and son and
he because I didn't have a ring on asked
me r u really married, I said no but we
have been together for 10 years and we
just haven't had a chance to save up for a
marriage with life and kids. I don't
really think that way, but I didn't want
to lead on that I had any misery. But
you know, after 2 days and 3 nights
straight of being awake working, you are
not thinking so clearly, but it was
obvious that this situation wasn't good
for me. After my food came, I ate about
1/2 and knew that I was late and should be
going to work. I got in my car, drove
away, and didn't hear from this man for 2
weeks. It was new years, I was at work,
he called in a frantic, I need a place to
stay, well what is going on, I will tell
you later, can you help me out. My boss
was walking around and noticed the
personal call, I said, ok. Meet you at 9.
Knowing well that I wasn't going. My
family was home when I got there, making
plans to go to see other family, I had a
headache, I had to work and wouldn't be
able to go. I knew that I told this man
that I would meet him at 9 so I
deliberatley left home after 10, it is
cold here, why would he wait. Long story
short, he did wait, I took him to get a
room, he said live a little have a drink,
I am not a drinker, I had one drink,
hadn't eaten, sleep deprived and had to
drive to work. I felt a little sick, one
drink is all that I had, I laid down to
get the sick feeling to go away. Not
knowing that I would fall asleep, I was
awaken by this man, that I trusted, the
father who wanted to do something great
after years, on top of me. I began to
tell him to get off of me. This went on
for about 5 minutes, till he finally said,
damned 000000 I don't have to rape you.
Well I was upset, yelling, went for my car
and he followed, I figured he wanted to
explain, his excuse, I had too much to
drink, I tried to drive away, he jumped in
the car and I drove and yelled, and yelled
why did you try to do this to me, I only
tried to help you. The story goes on. I
dropped him in the middle of the street.
I counldn't go to work now. I was a mess.
I was scared to go home because the kids
and the other half would be there. But I
figured, that is the best place for me. I
went home, they weren't home, I was
stillnot feeling well, I sat on the couch
with water, hoping to feel a little better
. I fell asleep again, to be awaken by my
other half and he wanted sex. What to do,
tell him someone, that I shouldn'thave
been around in the first place, tried to
hurt me, or just go with the flow and
leave well enough alone, nothing happened.
I went with the flow. I had to excape
afterwards because I was still upset. I
said I was going shopping and I did to
have time to think this out. Being a rape
victim @ 13. 15. And 18, and molested at
2.And 9. This was major setback for me
and I couldn't shake it. My only next
excape, my grandmothers house, so I told
him that I need to take a trip. I did it
in january, but the night before I was
scheduled to leave almost 2 1/2 weeks
after this incident, this man calls me.
Did you get my messages, yes, I did, they
were apologies. It still doesn't explain
why you did what you did to me or
tried!!!. I told him that he had me so
confused that I was going to my
grandmother's house, he says well isn't
that in the city, I said yes, and at that
moment he says, things are bad here, I
have no where to go, could I ride with
you. My first reponse r u insane, you are
calling to apologize for trying to do
something bad now you want a ride, you
apologize but you don't tell me why you
did this to me....He says, I will explain
it all, I will pay you, if you take me, I
dont' know what came over me, I said yes,
I was compelled to know what about me
makes people think that they can do things
to me like this. I went, got caught in a
snowstorm, wasn't were I was suppose to
be, I called home and lied and said I made
it when I hadn't. And yes you guessed it,
he found out. Well no matter what I said,
he hasn't belived me, it has been two
years, he beat me in my kitchen and spit
on me about 5 months ago, since I said
that I was asleep when this man tried to
do this to me, from feb-about april, he
would lube himself up shove his penis into
my anus, I have never done this before,
and I would be so tired from the two jobs
that I wouldn't know he had done these
things. I would wake up sore, in pain,
and finally one day he said to me well you
were said you were sleeping so I wanted to
know if you told the truth. I said why
would do this to me, that is rape, I dont
want you there. You did it for that man
is his response. He keeps me up till 4-5
in the morning arguing with me. I have
fibroids and polysystic ovaries, he goes
in hisoffice watches his porn, and comes
in my room and has sex with me, sleep or
not, rough and hard, and tells me to take
it. He calls me awhore in front of my
kids, for the last two years we have
talked about this incindent every day. He
said he was doing the same to me but in
january of this yr. On my daughter's
birthday, he decided that he would go with
a co worker and help her move, without
tellling me. He had oral sex with her,
spent the night with her, moved her house
and missed my daughters birthday. The
woman called me, said some nasty things
and yep you guessed it, it is june, they
still work together. And everyday, he
tells me what a disappointment I am
because I have pain while sex and I can't
take him pounding me to death. He says he
is a scorpio and that is what they do, and
I am just a used up woman. So what made
me write this is today, after being up
latelast night with his talks again, I was
at my desk, my boss askedme to take
something over to another building, well I
have been working hard to get in shape for
medical reasons, so I took it as an
opportunity to walk. So walked out of my
building at 1 pm. And took the package
across campus, then walked back, it was
1:27 when I heard a horn blow at me, it
was him, he said I saw you. I said I had
to go across campus, he said no I saw you
get out of the neighbors car!!! Stunned,
I said you did not, I am 5 paces from the
front of my building he says get in, he
speeds through the parking lot and we are
on a goose chase for a man that I have
never even spoken too. He says he sawmy
hair in a car. I was never in a car. I
have never cheated on this man, he abused
me verbally and slapped the phone out of
my hands when I begged him to call the
receptionist in my building to confirm
when I left my building because I asked
her to walk with me. He says that he has
sexual frustration at 30, I am not sexual
enough for him, he is a scorpio and I am a
used up woman becuase I belive sex for me
should be emotional not some nasty crap
you see in the porn. I am so depressed, I
often think of leaving but not just going
just ending this life, how much is a
person suppose to take. He is the one who
has slept with a hooker on mother's day,
gone to strip bars, and I am allowed no
friends, no life. I make a good amount of
money a year and he says that since that
incident in december of 03 I am not
trusted and that I should not have access
to money. So, when I took this new
positon w my current company, he marched
me in the bank, had me sign up for direct
deposit and sign it over to his account.
I get a 200 dollar by weekly allowance
that he monitors through another account.
Is this sex thing normal, is being treated
this way normal. Why am I so afraid to
leave. Please help me. I know that I was
all over the place but I tried to get to
the point.

I read your whole post and my god you need
to get away from this man... It makes me
sick to think of this situation that you
are in. Not only is it dangerous to you
but your children to. Leave him asap.
You have money, I dont understand why you
havent left him already. Do it for your
kids and do it for yourself. You should
have this health questions beat to death.
You do not deserve that, and in no way is
any of that normal. Get away and report
him to the police for abuse and get a
restraining order. Life can be so much
better then this, do not let this man
control you any longer. Do not let him
have the power ot make yourself end your
own life. Get away before he moves of
from raping you to your kids. Get away
from this sorry excuse for a man.

No. This is absolutely not normal. Do
you feel loved? Respected? No. I agree
with vanessalouanne 110%.
I am just sorry that you have been through
all this. I hope you find some peace in
the near future and get on with enjoying
real life.
All the best.

Run Posted: 08-24-05 18:41pm
Run, and run as fast aas you can. He is
controlling you, and he will eventually
kill you if you do not leave now. He is
already killing you in the spiritual,
emotional, and physical sense. You have
medical problems? If so I am not
surprised, most people in situations like
your s do b/c of the trapped feeling and
no control over your life.
Life is really too short, and use whatver
resources you have to get out and fast, or
make him leave. Probably not what you
want to hear, but I know where you are at.
I have been there myself, and quite a
similar history as well.
Whatever friends, family, centers you can
get in touch with do so, and leave.
I was in something like that for six
years, contrelling, and rough and tough
while having sex, he cheated and lied.
Got mad when isaid no, called me every
name in the book, didnt like me having
friends, I was miserable and felt trapped
eventhough it was my house my money and my
truck. So it started to make me
physically sick all the time, onyl way all
the crap could get out b/c I wasnt dealing
with it, then got cancer. I am okay now,
but I went back to college, and kicked him
out. I have been there, it is hard to
leave, specailly when you are half anf
half decided. But I did it, stuck to it,
dont answer any calls and it has been six
months now, those type of men either
moveon and find someone elwe fast, or are
really pschyo and wont leave you alone.
You probably know which he is, life is too
short, leave. I know only you can make
up your mind about it, you will do it when
you are ready, not when anyonelse says so.
I hope to god you do and I wil lsay a
prayer for you. For courage and
strength! There are so many good men out
there, who would treat you the way you
deserve, when you do leave, make sure you
do not get involved with anyone until you
find out why you pick men that are crappy
to you, otherwise you will do it again!

Leave As Fast As You Can Posted: 09-13-05 16:45pm
Get outta there, call your friends and
family and take your children and leave.
Dont have no contact with him and dont
except no apoligies, he will try to get ya
back just slam that door. And dont answer
no calls from that other jerk, I wonder if
he put something in your drink to make you
feel sick. Dont ever take drinks from
strangers to many date rape drugs out
there. You will find a man a real man to
love you, you sound like a strong person
to go thru what you have been thru, you
can do this hun. Just have faith. May
god bless you and your children.

Get Out Posted: 10-19-05 14:23pm
Please, leave him now or asap. You do not
deserve a son of a health forum like this.
He is scum, mother doing it scum. It
makes me sick to think that there are
people like this in the world and far
worse. Once again, leave now!!! Leave!
And bring your kids.

Please listen to what I say here. You
must leave this man now! I have been in
a situation just like yours and it is not
worth it. I was so scared to leave the
man that I was with. I was deathly
afraid of him and what he would do to me
if I left him. But one night we had one
of our many fights and I realized that I
had had enough of it. I knew that if I
didn't leave him right then that I never
would and he would end up killing me one
day. So, the first chance I got I left
him. We both left for work that day and
instead of me going to work I came right
back home after her left and I packed up
all of my stuff and I left. That has
been about 8 years ago. I have since met
and married the most wonderful man in the
world. He is so good to me and I can't
believe that I let this other man have
that many years of my life. It was a
waste. However, I have never been
happier now. This man that i'm with now
is the best man I could have found. He
is respectful and honest. I never
thought I would find a man like him. My
ex always told me that I would never find
a good man, because noone would want me.
Well, he was wrong! fool! Now he is
still a loser and I am happy. I promise
you that you will not regret this
decision. You will be so glad that you
did leave him. It will be hard, but you
have to stay strong no matter what he says
to you to get you to come back to him.
Do not go back to him no matter what he
says. Because he is not going to change.
Please listen to me and take my advise.
You will be glad that you did, plus you
will gain your life back. You deserve to
have your own life again with family and
friends. Please keep me updated on your
situation. If you want to talk, please
let me know and I will send you my email
address. Good luck to you!

Does anybody know in here the #1 cause of
murdered women? Men in their life.
Thier husbands, boyfriends, ex's etc etc.
Did you know that?? It's a sad sad
country if the #1 thing we have to worry
about killing us is the men in our
lives.
Your story is definently one of those that
you really have to be concerned about.
Reading this story I pictured a psycho sex
feen, power hungry, money grubbing piece
of shhhh. You've gotta get the hell
out girl...Now. Take your kids and get
the hell out now. Go to the bank change
direct deposit....Actually don't even go
to the bank, handle it through your
company. Go to work one day and just
never come back. Get your kids from
school in the middle of the day. Before
you leave and change the direct deposit,
have money saved up from the $200 that he
gives you each week, if you can save from
that think of a reason for him to give you
more...Groceries, household
crap..Whatever.
Have your money saved and then leave. It
would be best if you already had a
place..But just get the hell out of
there.
He's a psycho. I hope he reads this. I
would start cussing in this forum if I
could, he's just a worthless, low,
pedophile, sexaholic who needs to rape his
girlfriend just to get some ass. Get out
of there! I know it's hard but do
it...Think about your kids. You have a
son?? You want him to treat women like
this or be like the man you're with? You
have a daughter? You want her to be in a
situation like yours? No! Think of
your children...Get the hell out and I
would get him for rape. Just because
your married/together doesn't mean that
you cannot get his sorry ass for rape.

The only thing I can say to you is why are
u still there, why are you giving this man
your money, why do you let him have so
much control. A person will only do to
you what you allow them to do. You are
allowing this man to abuse you and he is
doing it because he knows he can. First
you need to love yourself and love
yourself enough to know you do not have
to take that type of treatment, no one
does. Once you love yourself then love
yourself to be strong and pray everyday
for strength, once you get strength you
will be strong enough to leave without
looking back. My heart goes out to you
but only to a certain extent because you
need to look out for yourself and when
people see that they will help you. I've
been in a couple of verbally abusive
relationships and I know its not easy but
try praying you will get the strength you
need. Please take care of yourself

I don't know why the beginning of my
earlier reply changed...But it is very
important for all women to know if they
don't
if you are a woman....You are most likely
to be murdered by a man in your life. A
husband, a boyfriend, an ex etc. Did you
know that? As a woman...You have to
worry more about your husband killing you
then a psycho killer off the street.
That is sad.

Hon I have been in a abusive relationship
and I hated
it.......................................E
ven after I left he followed me everywhere
and threatened me honestly I finally hit
him and somedays it scares the heck out of
me. He not only raped me but he drugged
me I got preggo at 16, I left my family
and friends for him only to find I lost
everything and he gained.
Leave please leave I tried to kill myself
in my relationship because of the bull I
had to put up with, I am now married to
someone who allows me to speak my mind as
well as discover myself.
I told hubby on our wedding day that if he
ever hit me or my children I would hit him
right back.
Hes scum and your a better woman than
that, I know the afraid feeling though but
accept it and put one foot ahead of the
other.....
Ur probably thnkin itz easy for others to
say leave him because putting up someone
like that for that long kind of makes you
get used to it and it can be hard yeah,
but think about it when your putting up
with something like that... Its hard
isn't to to let somone do that to you but
just get out because know-one lives to own
anything to anyone (different when you
borrow someting and own that thing back)
if your thinking that itz his sick way of
loving you or whatever, love doesn't
involve deliberate hurt and pain. You can
make your kids have a happy life and one
without caca and pain yourself so get out
girl not just for yourself but for your
kids sounds like youv out up with enough

"why does he do that?" by lundy bancroft
is a wonderful book to have, hold, read
and utilize.
"emotional blackmail" by susan forward is
another.
Www.Heartless-health
forum.Com go to the manipulator
files. (and in case this site has some
sort of obscenity monitor, it's b*tches,
replace the * with an i)
therapy would be advised, to heal from the
trauma and to vaccinate yourself against
another abuser.
Twue wuv does not conquer all.

There are many battered womens shelters
all across america. Take your kids, while
hes at work, and go there. Buy a gun if
you have to. Keep the gun at a friends
house, and only use it the day you leave.
It is very important to remember this.
There are 5x more women killed by an
intimate aquaintance than by a stranger.
Dont take a chance that he might find your
gun or find out about it. Keep it in a
locker or a safe deposit box at a bank.
You need to protect yourself and your
children.
Once youre out, file for a restraining
order. He will kill you. You know this
already. Start planning a true exit and
stop hoping he will change. He will never
change for you.
You are worth so much more than this! Do
not let this man coerce you into suicide.
Please be a survivor. If you kill
yourself, it means that he murdered you.
Dont be a statistic. I know you love
yourself too much to do that!
Look up battered womens hotlines in the
phonebook. They can refer you to
organizations that will help you! My ex
husband tried to shoot me. I know where
youre coming from. I learned so much at
the shelter I stayed at and have made
serious progress since. You will too.
Youre body is not a tool, it is a haven.
You will be okay, if you leave, but you
have to leave soon, and try to do it
quietly, since youre kids are in danger
too. Call a hotline for more tips and
help with wha to bring, like checks,
credit cards, ids, birth certificates,
prescriptions, car keys, house keys, the
deed, the lease agreement, any police
reports you have filed.. Etc..
But the most important thing to take with
you, is your life. Dont leave under a
white blanket or in a body bag. You can
and will persevere. I have faith in you.
You must survive. Only then can you break
this cycle for your kids sake.
Be careful.

Thank god you're still alive! Wow you're
a very strong woman and you now need to
find the strength to get out! While you
can. I would go to the police, and maybe
you can get some sort of protective
custody for you and your daughter. I am
so sorry you have to live like this. I
will be thinking of you often. I hope
that you're ok now. I hope that you're
safe tonight, and I hope he doesn't hurt
your girl. Your story really touched my
heart. Now you need to expose him..
Thank you for speaking out. You will see
the light at the end of the tunnel.
Good luck! Hugs
