A few weeks ago I made a post on here about my plans to escape my relationship. This happened when I finally got home

[auserhasnoname7]

Hello everyone, so a while back (probably longer than I would have liked) I made a post on here about leaving my toxic relationship with my now ex who is an alcoholic, held a (albeit unloaded) gun to my head, and did stuff like calling me a pedophile for defending trans people. While I was visiting my parents I was dreading going back to him and posted on here about my struggle. I deleted that post just in case he might go through my phone. It ended up taking me two months to eventually break it off but when I did things went surprisingly smooth. He was sad but didn’t do anything crazy. For some reason my heart still feels bruised over going through that and breaking his heart, but I’m sure I’ll recover pretty quickly.

Anyway so one of you witches told me to find a stone at my parents house and bring it with me, I followed every rule, I didn’t let my ex touch the stone, I meditated with it and carried is in my purse. After I left and made the two day drive to my parents house. I walked outside to the edge of the fence with the stone in one hand and my morning coffee in another. I looked into the water and took a deep breath. Ducks started honking wildly back and forth from opposite shores. Gave the stone a kiss goodbye and threw it into the lake. Took a quick sip of coffee and then two ducks one all white and one with a blended pattern glide down from above to each side of me. I hope it’s a good sign, I think it is I am already feeling optimistic about my new life without, him.

Thank you all for your supportive comments and suggestions. You are all beautiful and powerful individuals.

Thank you for sharing your walk with us. Thank you for protecting yourself. As your coven mate, I couldn’t be prouder or happier for being able to see the truth & leave safely. Big big hugs if you like hugs.

I think it was an excellent sign and the ducks were telling you that it’s finally safe for you to land. Rest your wings and relax for a while!!

You didn’t break his heart, he broke yours.

I’m so glad you got away. You may want to find a therapist that you feel comfortable discussing trauma with, because trauma responses can damage you moving forward if you can’t work through it moving forward. I hope you are able to recover and are happy and healthy!

Sending you strength and healing with open eyes to see all the opportunities for you

Congrats on your freedom! Also, please be careful. This period (days or weeks after you leave) is actually often the most dangerous. Try to build a system of protection and support if you can. Are there people you trust that know what you’ve been through? Know to be on alert if something odd happens/someone shows up?

Congrats again. From my own experience, this freedom is wonderful. 2 months (that’s super short! Please don’t be hard on yourself). Happy for you!!

They were welcoming you home. Stay safe and I hope you find your peace.

If that had been me I’d have probably sleepily hurled the coffee in the lake and tried to drink the stone lol. Glad you’re more of a morning person than I am!

Glad you escaped that shit. I did too 20 years ago – sounds like this advice will be unnecessary but don’t keep them in your life as a friend, it’s worse almost than the relationship and lingers a lot longer and wrecks your head worse. I’m glad you’re in a good place, move forward x

I’d have given the stone some googely eyes and kept it by my bedside because rocks are very loyal, they will never leave your side

I think it was a sign, acknowledging the new path you’ve chosen to take to freedom.

I know we don’t know each other but I’m so proud of you, leaving a long-term relationship is so very difficult but totally worth it. You hang in there and take it a day at a time if you need to. It is totally normal to feel some pain or regret or just feelings you can’t articulate in a situation like yours, but those will fade away as you bloom in your new life. Much love <3
