It's in that moment...

He will tell you he loves you. He will hold you so tight and make you feel like the luckiest girl in the world, in that moment. His chin will quiver when he apologizes and you take it as he's being sincere, in that moment. Next thing you know, you're getting screenshots sent to you of him asking another woman if he can come lay in bed with her while he just dropped you off. When you ask him WHY, he will twist it in every way to make you think you're just being crazy and you'll believe him, in that moment. You'll cry and try to forget all the times you've caught him in lies, all the times he's cheated on you, all the times he's deliberately hurt you. But as soon as he cracks that beautiful smile at you, you'll forget about all the bad, in that moment. Things get brighter and you think you see a real change in him. You're laughing again and not afraid to be yourself. You think you've found your forever but then something happens. You make him mad, so he runs off to another woman, again. Then when he can't go anywhere, he raises his hand at you. Physically hurts you to where you you feel so alone. He will kiss your bruises and tell you how SORRY he is. That it won't ever happen again. Because you've invested so much time and effort and love into this man, you'll believe him, in that moment. The next day he's being sweet and doing whatever he can to try and make you smile. "He really loves me," you'll tell yourself. He'll start talking about babies and getting married and being together forever. He will paint the most beautiful pictures for your mind. Everything will seem okay, for a moment. Then he gets comfortable. He starts making jokes about hurting you, laughing about it as it it's funny. He will silently hurt you in front of others and make you seem crazy for getting upset. He will blame you, call you nuts. He will throw everything at you he can to be little you. Call you ugly, talk about your deepest insecurities just so you'll stay. He will make you think no one could ever love you like he does. You'll listen to him. You'll stay. You'll cry yourself to sleep as you're laying next to him. He will message and talk to several other woman as you're laying there wishing for a way out. Then as soon as he cuddles up next to you, you'll forget everything he's ever done to hurt you. Only for a moment. Then the most dreadful thing happens. That moment. The moment he chokes you to the point you pass out and think you've died. The moment he embarrasses you by beating you and throwing you around like a rag doll. You'll try to fight back with words and find any equalizer you can bc you feel so small and weak to him. He will break you emotionally. He will leave you with tears in your eyes. He will manipulate you into thinking you provoked him. You'll do anything you can to keep this man. But why? Why not love yourself? Because it's so much easier to love somebody else. He won't be sorry and you'll do whatever you can to get him to say the words you want to hear. But that's not going to heal your wounds or put together your heart. Nothing he can do will take away the betrayal of him. You will feel your heart break, you'll want to die. You don't want to be on this earth with out him. After everything he's done, you'll still try to find the good in him. Well, there comes a time, a moment, where you've got to put your foot down. Love yourself. There's someone out there that will kiss your head instead of bashing it. You'll find someone who will love you like you deserve and he will make you feel it. Who will love your flaws instead of using them against you. You are stronger and you are better than this. Such a beautiful soul to have it demolished by some punk who doesn't know self control. You will get through the this and you will be better off without him. You have so much more waiting for you. Love yourself. Be your best friend. Once you can do that you’ll be amazed at how confident you’ll become.
