Anonymous' personal story

I met the most impressive person hands down. Within months I did not love her but due to my childhood, I could not leave the girls. I could not stand the thought of someone nor being able to get in between them and be the wall she crashed into. I spent the next 7 years raising her kids and desperately trying to counter the savage insults, alienation, the fear induced to gain the response she wanted and traction she wanted.

I was terrified, felt alone with her always. She never had a nice conversation with me again. I spent all my savings, I got rid of my house, I sold my car collection, I bought her last 3 cars, I paid for everything and never got a dollar. I got a $5 mug for my birthday and she got the vacc, I did not care about the value but it was the fact of no effort (she wanted the vacuum cleaner). I built a pergola, fences and hedges to cover the windows since we had 3 girls and there were flats across the road. I taught them, praised them and she manipulated them.

Then the craziest thing happened. I had to help my step-daughter and this would expose my ex, she would have been ordered to do a psychological review and she would have been found to be not competent as a parent after the girls spoke about her. Instead she took the girls then came back and broke a bone in my neck. A man broke bones in my face, I had an arm that did not work, scratches on my neck.

I almost died, I spent 24 hours in a cell with broken bones next to that artery. I got no interview, no photos, no hospitalisation, they took my kids and charged me with assaulting my whole family (no injuries, they refused to go to hospital). They accused me of hitting them in ways that kill people but no marks. As I’ve got no one, I'm now in family court and criminal court, the chips are don't nothing cause the paper they have shows morons not even thinking it's full of statement where people look through walls from 12 meters away. $73,000 down on a frivolous, vexatious claim.

Men need to start talking, interacting, get a white text and write it on your car as the internet algorithm is a psychotic man denier. I am a champion. I only hit people coming at me, I'll feed anyone because you're hungry and we are all brothers and sisters, I love you all and I've never met you. You can come to my house or approach me anywhere I live to make others happy hoping they return the favour. I'm still extremely happy but also getting a bit frustrated with people working for themselves when we are a group, we should become a family and dominate the government.
