Dear cranberry:

You asked: “How do I get out of this stronger? How do I move on?”

My answer: by working hard in counseling, by doing all you can to heal from the hurts and fears that caused you to be “emotionally abusive and manipulative” with him. You may not have the opportunity to have a second relationship chapter with him, one where you are emotionally honest and straightforward, but you are likely to have such an opportunity with another man.

I believe that it is by correcting our behaviors, by gaining all the insight we can, learning new skills and practicing those, correcting our behaviors that need correcting, that we earn our self forgiveness.
