I was verbally and emotionally abused. That's all I'm going to say ...
I feel the need to defend my reasoning. My relationship with my ex was volatile. He used to call me some horrible things ... he used to say even worse stuff about my family but like an idiot I used to let it slide. Eventually all of my pent up frustrations and ire about my not doing anything about this abuse just came out. Arguments ensued. There were one or two instances where yeah I kicked him in the balls. Of course he proceeded to say that it didn't affect him at all and he wasn't in any pain.
