Here are, some MORE of those, good, ol’ fashioned, EXCUSES!!!
He’s usually not like this, it’s just that he got passed up for that promotion he thought was surely his, and the work’s straining him too hard, and the kids got too rowdy inside the house, compounded with that huge STACK of unpaid bills scattering, all around, our breakfast table, that, was what made him CRACK, and, I should’ve known, noticed, that something wasn’t quite right with him, so, it’s MY fault, shouldn’t have, gotten in his way, plus, he did, apologize to me profusely, after he’d, hit me.
and this, is what it looks like, for those of you who need that “visual”…
Usually not like this, and this, is how it usually began, you keep on, making excuses for why someone else hurt you, kept rationalizing that it’s your fault, how you should’ve kept out of the individual’s ways, how you should’ve kept the kids in check or whatever, and, you’re still, enabling the other person’s abuse on you.
Usually not like this, yeah uh, get REAL, you had become, totally, TRAPPED, inside this vicious cycle of NEVER-ENDING ABUSE, and, you will NEVER, find your ways out, because you are part of the problem, enabling someone else’s abuse of you!!!
