Well went to dinner and friend who has poped back from the past.
We had a very nice dinner out. She told me about her m, her husband beat her 3 times per year. Abused her verbally.
It was tough but I know what she has gone thru, tbh. I never knew before. So many arh ha moments. Her h spew was just like mine, they both exploted your secrets to hound you with and use as abuse. In my case an odd fine, in hers drinking and bf when in her youth.
Her h did turn around and become the h they so very needed, after h discovered she had an a. The worst bit, he passed, soon after.
She is going to come for dinner with as regularly. Which will be nice, we both need support and it will be good for both of us. Which gives me another option when the other girls cannot go. I'm getting used to going.
She did talk about the old me being laid back relaxed and talked of how hard it must be to cope with the anxiety.
We will keep in touch. All in all a fun weekend.
