Someone asked me what I wanted for lunch last week and I stood there for too long. It is not a big thing.
Except it is.
I know exactly where that comes frm. I know the specific version of events that taught me that answering wrong was a problem.
That having a preference was an invitation for an argument I did not start and could not win. So I stopped having preferences. I made them small. I made them invisible. I made myself easy to be around by making myself easy to erase.

The thing nobody tells you is that it does not switch back when the person is gone. You do not just wake up one day and know what you want again. You are standing in a lunch queue trying to decide between two sandwiches and your chest tightens and you pick whatever is closest because deciding feels dangerous and you cannot explain why.
I have had to learn myself back. What I actually like. What I actually think. What I would choose if no one was keeping count
It is slow work. Slower than I expected.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

There is no perfect formula to help a victim of domestic violence. If someone you know is in an abusive relationship, there are ways to show your support and help.

Sometimes, feeling both love and hate toward a partner can indicate abuse instead of annoyance.
