been there, done that.....you need to move forward and not look back....move to a new city/state and find a new job...start over with a clean slate and remember, this is NOT you fault, he is the one with the problem not you...remember that always

Well you could try to do things where he can not see where you are going make sure you clean up evidence so he can not find out where you are going. That is a very scary thing to do and to get away is hard but try your hardest and I really hope you get away from him. You must deserve better and I wish you best best best of luck.

There are shelters for ppl in abusive relationships and they can lead you on the right path to escape him for good. Go to counselling to get through the horrible life you've had to live...they also can guide you on the right path to have a Safe Life*There are many support groups you can go to..where other woman have survived and moved on with their life*Stay strong..Don't Return to him Ever*........You can do this* Keep on Smiln*

Just get ur luggage and important numbers of your friends or relatives , jump aboard and run but before that get yourself a job and accommdation.Everything needs to be planned including escaping!
