Why I Stayed
Why I stayed. I stayed because I loved him. I stayed because he said he loved me. I stayed because we had kids. I stayed because this was my 3rd marriage.

I stayed because maybe it really wasn't that bad. I stayed because I felt guilty. I stayed because I didn't want my kids in a broken home. I stayed because I cut myself off from family and friends. I stayed because I had no way to support myself and my kids. I stayed because I didn't know what I would do. I stayed because I was scared. I stayed because I thought I could handle it. I stayed because I thought it would get better. I stayed because I thought I could change myself for him. I shouldn't have stayed. Don't stay. Don't encourage people to stay. Get out.
