Remember that thread on domestic violence?

I don't remember the original thread but I've just read the blog post and actually cried.

What a brave woman for sharing her story and so wonderfully written as well.

This. Trying to hide my tears at work!

I don't really know what to say. That was such a well-written, emotional, heart-breaking post. Brave, brave lady indeed.

If that made you cry, you wait until you read the second piece. She's an absolute champ, that's for sure.

I have no words, i really dont. Throught fear of bursting into tears i just cant say anything.

brave Brave women.

Reading that gave me chills.

??

I hope that man rots in hell.

Totally upsetting, a brave woman for speaking out. I hope she's ok and look forward to reading her part II

Huge Lump in my throat reading that.

I’m utterly speechless but I’m so glad that she had the strength and courage to tell her story, hopefully it will help someone in the same situation break the cycle.

Such a brave women

Another one trying not to cry! When does the second piece come out Storky?

It'll be in a couple of weeks. There are a couple of hitchers up on the blog next week though ?

I want to write something! But have nothing to write about....perhaps being a step mum?!

[:'(]

A very very brave lady.

This is a shocking story of domestic/emotional violence.

I was a child where my mum was was abused by my dad where when he was 'drunk' he was violent. She stayed with him for me and my sister to have a family, Im glad that she left when she did and I admire my mum for what she went through and came out the other end a very strong woman. She is now remarried and very happy.

Im glad that Amy is no longer in this situation for both herself and her daughter, deserves to be happy after what this piece of c*ap has put her through!

I can't read this yet.

Sure, go ahead! It's nice to have different perspectives. Thank you ?

I'm glad to hear this.

Pittabre ?

It's so sad to read stories like this, it really could happy to anyone. I'm so glad she's happy now.

Defo can happen to anyone and from the outside all looks normal and happy - never a truer saying that you dont know what happens behind closed doors.

I always said the same when I was growing up I will never let a guy do that to me etc etc - i then got older and discovered about my dad doing that to my mum, my mum is a strong woman who never takes crap of no one and knows how to stand up for herself etc so it really surprised me about this but after years of it obv wore her down and with two young kids in tow she stuck it out.

Its obv a hard situation but for anyone in this position I would always say get out - dont stay for the kids as this is not helping you or them.

I don't remember the thread but have just read this on your blog. What an incredible womna, looking forward to part 2 and a hopefully happy ending.

What a difficult yet amazing read. I've never felt so protective over someone I've never met.

Ha! We should both do it!

What a brave, brave woman. Shocking story.

Just to let you know the second part of this is up on the blog on Friday this week.

Looking forward to it, I was thinking about this the other day and thinking I was looking forward to reading the second part.

This highlights how important it is to teach young women about all sides of relationships.

A difficult story to read, but sometimes it is good to have your eyes re-opened. Too many times I read things like this, think how shocking it is, then go back to my own little bubble. I don't really know what I'm trying to say here.

Glad to read that Amy is safe now and I will look out for the follow up post.

A truly shocking story, I really do feel for Amy. People close to me have suffered terribly from domestic violence and this reallt does sum up how it can be.

I am looking forward to the second part, and so glad she's doing well and happy now.

Part 2

I've read it and I don't know what to say ☹️

A truly inspirational and brave lady. [:'(]

She is a wonderful lady and I am so glad that she has got the happy ending that she deserves.

Unbelievable. What a beautiful, strong woman.
