Ok Ladies and Gentlemen I am new here, but already have a confession to make. Ready, okay:

>I have earned my DAMN FOOL LICENSE. For those of you who dont know what that is, it's when you have fallen in love with a damn fool and you allow him/her to treat you so bad you look like a damn fool too! I swore I wouldn't earn mine, but I did. Hell I am too embarassed to run down all the details, but He lied, cheated, treated me like I was his servant, was blatenly disrespectful! and spent most of his time trying to make me think I was crazy because I knew I deserved better. BUT I allowed most of his ******** and stayed- It was definitely a character builder! Now here is the real issue. I have been out of this relationship since December, but I am scared as hell to get into another one. Scared it will happen again and I will either A) fall back into the pattern OR B) cut his ass.

I am leaning towards B... Not good!

What should I do?
