We try to point out how much he manipulates her, controls her activities, and pushes away her friends, but she's just so happy to have found "a man who is such a great leader." 
So all men who aren't seflish, manipulative pricks are "abnormal?" |
I'm kind of irked that no one said they thought my guy was a creep-o until I had already figured it out myself. What does it take for people to say "hey, something isn't right here" because if they had I wouldn't have signed a lease with him or tried to work it out.
I never realized that leaving is the easy part and the hard part is what comes after until I was in that situation. If I had known what I'd have to go through after the fact, I might have just played nice until the lease was up and I could get my family here and save up money to make a cleaner break.
