When I took my stand against domestic abuse in June 2005, it was not even because of the abuse itself. My husband cheated on me and this is why I decided to kick him out.  Before that time, I had wanted to do it, but I did not because of fear. I was not because I feared he would hit me, it was the fear of not being able to support myself, the kids, and pay the bills. I feared being alone in this world.  

I also believed in the vows I took when we married long ago, the ‘in sickness and health’ part got to me in a big way. In 2000, my husband had his first mental breakdown, and while he was in the hospital, I had talked to a lawyer about a divorce. I thought I was ready to walk, but I was not. It was after five more years of learning all I could about bipolar which he was diagnosed as, lots of the other types of abuse (except for physical).

It was not my illness, he should have been learning as I did, and trying to heal himself. He would take his medications at times, but would decide he no longer needed them, so he would quit them and begin self-medicating. The kids and I deal with this, and it was not fair for any of us. I was not strong enough to take my stand because I was too wrapped up in the vows and the guilt he gave me when I tried to stand up.

I have been writing recently on this blog about domestic abuse violence and the hurt it causes. The hurt extends further than the beatings most people assume domestic abuse and violence, because it is a whole slew of things together which fit into the equation.

It is the name calling, the crap where a ‘loving partner’ says you will never find someone as good as me. It is the hitting, biting, and scratching. It is when a ‘loving partner’ removes the spark plugs so you cannot get away to visit family. It is when you do go away, and something bad happens at home such as in the next paragraph.

My niece was in the psych ward as a teenager, and my sister did not want to make the 3 hour drive each way by herself so I went with her. My husband did not like this at all, but I refused to listen to his rants and I went. I come home that day and my favorite bird was dead, I went into to check on his mate after my husband told me at the door about the first bird. I seen the mate take her last breath. Nothing can be proved, but both seemed fine when I left that morning.

Domestic abuse begins early in the relationship and continues to grow. Sometimes it happens so easily that one cannot even recognize it.  Sometimes it does not seems like abuse so we stay thinking it is not so bad, and that is when we become complacent about this.  

Anyone in this situation needs to stop and ask themselves if they really deserve this. Would you allow your best friend to talk to you in a mean tone? Would you allow your best friend to get away with smacking you around?  Had my best friend treated me as my husband treated me, she would not have been a best friend. I would have dropped her quickly. Yet I allowed a man to treat me badly for way too long because I thought that was not that bad.

I was so wrong I did not deserve it. If you are in danger, call a woman’s shelter. They are there to help men and women who are beaten by partners who profess to love them. This is not love, not by a long shot.

In May of 1988, I boarded the airplane in Los Angels CA. bound for
Seoul, South Korea. I had left
America and all I knew far behind to begin my married life. I know at this point I had been married for over two years, but it did not seem like it since I had spent only from April to November of 86 and 3 weeks of December of 87 with him. The rest of the time within our marriage, he was in
South Korea.

We spent the first few weeks in a hotel, which I did not mind at first. After a few days, it was getting very hard to keep our daughter who was now one and a half happy in a hotel. With one American channel, and no VCR it was hard to do. With little to read, as an avid reader I became miserable. He had brought his medical records home, for some reason. Not sure why he did, but it was reading material I wish I had never read it. I did read it however, and I was floored. Within the past year (87) he had been treated for a rash, that he had received for sexual contact. I was floored and kept reading this page. I was living with his parents half a world away. I asked him about it when he got home, and he told me it was only something the doctor had written but he did not cheat. I believed him after a few days.

After living in the hotel for 3 weeks, we got an apartment off post, and moved in. Luckily, someone who was going back to
America had a full bevy of household items and sold them to us for dirt-cheap. Life was better in the apartment. I bought sheets from the PX (department store) on post and used a pair for curtains.

The Olympics were being held in country that year and being in communications, he was often out in the field that summer. I hated being alone with a small child in a foreign land but I was determined to make a go of my marriage.  I did make a few friends with other GI wives, and made the best of it. I saw my husband a few hours every two weeks for the summer, which sucked.

It was September when I admitted to him that my daughter might not be his, I wanted to be straight up with him, as I felt he was being straight up to me. When I had gotten pregnant with her, I was with him and my old boyfriend. The guilt was killing me, so I confessed and he did not speak to me for three days. I deserved this I suppose, but it was scary, for if he had kicked me out then I would have been stuck in a foreign land.  

On that third day, he came home from work and told me, he would consider her his daughter always but he wanted a child of his own. I watched as he pushed the birth control out of the packet one by one and into the toilet. He never asked, he just did what he wanted. He became a man on a mission, a mission to have a child.

It did not matter if I was sleeping or ill, if he wanted me he would not give up. I was caught up in the excitement of having another baby, that I let too many things slide. I had never had problems with asthma in my life, but over there in South Korea, I did, in a huge way. It was so bad I carried the eppi shot wherever I went, along with the inhalers.

Marital rape is when sex occurs with penetration and is not consensual by the other party. How can I give consent when I am sleeping?  This was just the beginning of this type of stuff. I stayed because that was what I was raised to do. He did not hit me so I never thought this was abuse. It got worse.

In year, two not much happened because he was in
South Korea for the most part by himself except when he came home on leave in early December. I had spent the year raising our daughter with the help of our parents as the bank transfers were not set up yet. It seemed as if there was always a problem. I could have found a job to help with my expenses and I did when I moved from my parents to his out in CA. Locally I had gone on assistance so I could afford my own apartment when our daughter was an infant, as I could not work. I had mentioned it was a difficult labor yesterday briefly and that is part of the reason I could not work. Between healing from the c-section, and taking care of her extended medicinal needs there was not enough time to work. Truthfully, I should not have had to work since my husband was making good money in the army, but he was using it for other purposes.

When I traveled to CA to meet his parents, I fell in love with
Duarte where they lived. Therefore, our brief 2-week vacation turned into almost a yearlong stay. I worked for a temp agency, but my father in law would not allow me to help with bills, he said that was my husband’s place. My pay went for dinners out and toys for my daughter. My in-laws bought the formula, which my daughter was on until she was almost 2 years old.

 I over heard my mother in law ask my father in law that first day we met them if he had picked up the right girl at the airport. At first, I was insulted, but my mother in law sat me down and explained her statement and I was shocked. My husband was one of those who was forced to make a choice, service or jail because of drugs! I had never done drugs or been around anyone who had done them so that was a shock to me.  

When my husband came home on leave, we had a nice first birthday party for our daughter. We also met some of his old friends, and when I did not fit in with those drinking friends, I was not invited to go. I sat home with my in-laws. I went to one party with them, they all did LSD, when I realized what we happening I went outside, later that night my husband told me I would not be going to anymore parties.

I loved my in-laws, I think in many ways I was closer to them then my husband ever was which is sad. I met them in1987 and separated from their son in 2005 and they made me power of attorney for both of them in 2008.  They were one of the biggest reasons I stayed in that marriage long after I should have left.

Do you see the abuse in this one? Remember abuse is far more then the physical beatings. The money issues were the main problem this year, as he did not share the money he got. In the service, you get money for a family. It was a family allowance. He also got over seas hardship pay, which was supposed to help the family left behind.  What was he doing with the money? Stay tuned for year 3 when Amber and I move to
South Korea with him.

The leaves fell off the trees a bit more today as the northern winds decided to let us know that the time of change is soon upon us. Last weekend the trees still held their coats of many colors, but this week has taken its toll. It looks like winter out there, all the color is gone from the trees and plants as they prepare for winter.

For those of you who do not live in this part of the country, the days can be warm but the nights dip down into the lower thirties. We have already had frost on the grass when we wake in the morning and it will not be long before the blanket of snow makes it all beautiful once more.  

The beauty of being a content writer is being your own boss, and making money at your own pace. Sounds like a great life style right. The huge trap no one mentions is that sometimes those web sites advertise high amounts, I have seen up to 20 bucks for an article.

For quick cash I began writing for a web site that promises to pay writers anywhere from a buck to ten dollars to write.  In reality after 30 articles I have not seen any one article paid for more than $2.75 and most have been between a buck and a buck twenty five. This would not be bad but there is nothing for the page views those articles receive. We are handing them exclusive work for pittance. I am almost up to my payout of fifty dollars and I am out. I would not mind selling them for a buck or two if there were page views involved.
