Mountains10 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Confused- Hang in there. After doing some research and viewing posts on LS, I found out what gaslighting was. Never heard of it until I logged on here. Gaslighting is so powerful that it can knock you to your knees. It is someone you love/care for telling you that you are at fault; you are the bad person; you are the one who is doing all wrong. BS 100%. Do not let her do that to you. Accept your 50% and move along. Never accept more than your share. Stay strong. NFT's right, I felt that I was being gaslighted daily, that's why I went NC. Screw that, like I need mental games when I'm trying to heal from this whole thing. If it's not one thing it's another with these WS's. And it's ALWAYS about them, ever notice how selfish they get?

Author confused71 Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 Its amazing how all of a sudden something just clicks in your head and you realise this person who has caused you all this pain is just not worth the effort. Its like I have come out of a long dark tunnel.I have all you guys on here to thank for helping me through this even though I ignored most of the advice LOL. I took my stepdaughter out for ice cream and she seemed so happy to be with me.(even though STBX said she would be forget about me soon) I even had a text from stbxw to say how happy the daughter was to see me (after practically saying she was going to stop me seeing her) I ignored it though. Have not felt sad about the situation for nearly a week now.And actually think that STBX is going to be the one with problems from now on.I wont be there to sort them out though. Have even been talking to a nice young lady I met on the internet.I have been completely honest with her about my situation so hopefully she wont be put off Link to post Share on other sites
