Survival is strength:
After three months I finally have the safeguarding team out to put film on my windows.
I'm one of the lucky ones, I confronted my ex via text about when he's gonna choose to hurt his new lass and that's why I've had radio silence and why he wants her to block me so she can't know what he is capable of. Even if she did, I doubt she'd listen or take it on board. Been there. Done that. Escaped.
So I'm lucky he's stayed away even though he says he's not as bad as my ex partners, I told him his abuse is on par with my first ex husband and he didn't like that. He was my worst abuser.
So I'm up early to let these lovely workmen in to assist with things and protect me incase things happen in future. Not hard the way people hate instead of supporting victims in this town, it's starting to make home feel less like home. This is MY hometown too so feck you!
I've survived too much and came too far to allow fake feminists and people with fake narratives to pull me down, invalidate me or tell me how I should be treated. I'm allowed to be upset when men mistreat me and I'm entitled to an apology if they're in a professional capacity. I am PROUD of who and how I am and I thrive and dance and jump around at the fact I don't do what THEY choose to do.
They involve themselves in things that they don't have a right to involve themselves in, they misuse their charitable organisations to justify abuse and invalidate people that deserve apologies, not the first time cliques have done this.
I stay in my lane if it's not my light or fight, they pull women down whilst claiming to uplift others, I uplift ALL.
They invalidate, segregate, hate and put out negative energy and victim blame and shame and I will never ever blame any victim for wanting fair treatment. We don't have to villainise people they do a bloody good job of it themselves by acting in poor manners! Booyah! ✌🏻
That makes me authentic and my morals never change and why I can sleep at night.
I've lived some monstrosities and I've endured and survived far worse than they know and it's about time people realised actions have consequences and people demanding accountability should not be invalidated.
Wrong IS wrong.
I'm fecking proud of me and any haters or bullies or cliques or invalidators or segregators or antagonists that don't even realise they are creating additional problems and infringing the rights of their fellow 'sisters' and Newtonians can make the town worse if they want to. Whether they acknowledge it or not it's rotten at the core and some people think they're infallible and above owning their shii.
Well I don't and I'll NEVER apologise for using my voice to fight for fairness and awareness.
We matter too.
If you don't think so feck you!
