Something my asshole abusive ex said that still pisses me off

A few months ago he said that women who leave abusive relationships don’t immediately go on dating apps and start sleeping around. According to his reductive reasoning, the fact that I did get on dating apps and started sleeping around after leaving him, that must mean that he wasn’t abusive.

He was there. He knows what he did to me.

I don’t regret what I did at all. I was doing what I wanted to do. I also think that it was likely a trauma response, and I was lonely and horny, and hey- I ended up meeting an amazing man 6 months into my “hoe phase”, who started out as a casual sex partner and turned into the great love of my life…

But anyway, who does he think he is?! Dickhead.
