Left a Violent Relationship, but Now I Feel Bad.?

Question by cookiemonster: left a violent relationship, but now I feel bad.?
I broke up with my boyfriend over 2 months ago. He beat me on 2 occasions, and was sometimes controlling and verbally abusive. We were together 3 years before I came to my senses and walked away from that. There is no doubt in my mind that I did the right thing and I have no desire to return to him… I need to lookout and respect myself. However it is torturing me that I have abandoned him… I know he is a wreck know. I also know that I did the right thing for him also by not continuing to enable such horrible by staying with him. However I cannot help my emotions, it breaks my heart to know the state he is. Time will help him heal… but any words of encouragement to help me be more at ease when my emotions get the best of me?

Remember to distance yourself from him. His current state is none of your business anymore and it’s up to him to pick himself up. You are a strong independent woman who deserves better. Congrats on walking away.
