I recently discovered the FDS community accidentally, in a two year relationship, and completely unhappy. I really thought that I was stuck trying to convince someone to treat me better and fix our fighting forever. I wanted to write this to thank you all for helping me realize how much more I deserve and as of two days ago I have left him to start new beginnings and get to know myself and find my happiness. I really don’t think I could have done it without lurking on this page for the past month or so and reading the handbook. Definitely have a long way to go getting over the whole relationship but I absolutely know I deserve it.
