I should be ashamed that I am secretly a bit happy

I really do hurt for my daughter. She is devastated over the fact that yesterday her bf's mother moved him out to her house. Needless to say that people here who have followed so many of my posts know this man mistreated her for years (7 to be frank). Until recently , about 2 months, he hardly ever worked but 4 or 5 days out of 7 years. She has supported him, food, cigs, drove him around and she comes home and does everything I don't do, even on days he is home for weekend all day. In AZ he slept most of the day, then cussed her if she wouldn't run him some where when she came home. About once every 2 months for a day or 2 he would do some work around the house, usually on pay day, her pay day that is. here she has gotten him to work for 2 months, by getting him up while he screams and cusses her all the way and when they come home he would be cussing her. I have no idea why some one would put up with all that. but she is broken hearted. I just hope it doesn't hurt to long. so , yes I am ashamed that secretly I am very happy it may finally be time she can move on. and also he is a drunk and pill addict that she has given him money for when he would cuss her enough to get it.

I understand you being secretly happy and I hope she will be able to move on and not stick with him no matter where he is. I hope she learns to love herself first.

I do think it is about time for her to move on and start to love herself.

problem is she can't do it right now. she is going to be getting over the heart break because she can't think straight right now

@bunnybon7 I know it is hard to go through this kind of situation. But she needs to herself too.

Correct. When you love somebody, leave some for yourself.

As long as girlfriends and mothers will enable these type of men to act like this they will. they will. I hope that your daughter goes forward and stays away from him. For her own good. I fully understand why are happy and, being a mom and I understand. I hope your daughter is through with this guy.

@bunnybon7 ...Yes, and I hope you are out of it for the most part now. Although your daughter may try to come stay with you? How do you feel about that?

I dont think you should be ashamed of it Instead, as a mother you should be happy (as you are) that he is gone for now, and the daughter has time for her, it would be good in case she realizes that the lie she was in, is actually no life at all. i know, I should not be the one to say this, but definitely, out of experience, I have realized that initially, it sounds all good, I am looking after and caring for my man thing, but in the long run, it is only a set of pain that you are inflicting onto yourself.

I'm so sorry to know of the troubled life your daughter lived. It must be very painful for a mother to see her daughter go through all these hardship and suffering.

What a sad state of affairs. Hopefully, your daughter will begin to see that she doesn't have to live like that. It's really hard to see what's happening when you're in the middle of it. Even obvious abuse is easy to make excuses for

@bunnybon7 It's really not easy. I've been there and you just don't see it the same when you're in the middle of it.

I know your daughter is broken hearted right now, but hopefully this is a "good" thing and I can totally understand why you would be happy about this. I remember how you have mentioned how this guy was . . . oh she doesn't need a man like this - no one should have to put up with all that negativity. Yes, with him being removed from the scene, hopefully she will see a better light and forget about him.

@bunnybon7 Maybe she needs a new circle of friends . . . hopefully she can meet some other folks to make her realize "this" is not the kind of man she needs or should want. Sometimes people feel like there is no other choice and tend to just stick to what they are used to.

yes but things are going a bit south now. she is thinking she may not be able to go on and maybe I should be in assisted living so she don't have to worry about me
