Thanks you guys. I just needed some words.

You are right, Sara, I would have heard his verbal attacks everytime he didn't get his way. He was married and the divorce was nasty....should have told me something, too. I remember that episode...hitting home

H4u- I know he said nasty stuff...those words hurt me more than I wish they did....doesn't change anything with what I want, but makes me feel so crappy. You're right it does reinforce things...why do his words affect me so much? I know I want to be with H. He is the better man, better father, and I love him. I guess it's my guilt...I hear OM say those things and it makes me realize once again what I've done. It is hard to live with this.
