And you are absolutely right ...in a normal relationship which is what i in my fantasy land treated it as for the longest time and then through alot of heartbreak and hard hits on the head figuratively i learned that i am not in any way in a normal relationship and being in the relationship not living a normal life. how sad is that?

That's how I acted with my husband after he would make the promises that I wanted to hear.
On the outside, I was happy to be the loving couple again.
On the inside, I felt cheap and degraded.
