SO2, bash you? I hope you don't feel like I am bashing you - I actually think you are really awesome! I know how hard this has been - do you realize how quickly you have gone between wondering if you were making the right decision (just over the holidays when he was being ultra-manipulative), thinking you should give him another chance, to today, where you can SEE the real person he is? That is HUGE!

Also a positive step that you checked with your atty.

And the fact that you are going out for some grown-up time tomorrow! Enjoy every second, guilit-free - you SO deserve it!
