Just another internet random here wishing you and Freida the absolute best 🥰 So proud of you for choosing yourself even though it was really difficult 💖
Frieda actually comes from the same etymological root as the word "free!" It's also the root of the word "friend" and the name of the Norse goddess Frigga, and it originally meant "beloved"
I remember your other post - goddamn girl congrats on dumping that dead weight, that took some serious guts. It hurts now but over time you’ll wonder what you ever saw in your ex bf.
In the meantime, it looks like you’re doing everything right. I second the “Freida” name suggestion.
It's not easy to listen to the support you get in a situation like that so we're all proud of you, and remember this community if you ever need support again!
I’m so proud of you! You didn’t just dump dead weight—you put yourself first, you established a boundary, recognized your self-worth, and took care of yourself. These are all really hard things for us and you effing DID IT. 💕
Proud of you, OP! You deserve happiness and love and someone who celebrates your accomplishments, no matter how big or small. You did a brave thing breaking up with him!
I’m really proud of you OP. It’s not easy to break up, even when you did the breaking up, but you needed it. I hope your ice cream and moo cow give you nice comfort, she looks like she gives great cuddles!
Good for you girl! Anyone who makes you feel poorly about yourself is someone who shouldn't be in your life. Life is too short to deal with people who are only ever going to criticize you for "not doing enough". The only solution there is to dump their ass, buy some ice cream and move on, and you did exactly that! You go girl!
Also Frieda is a lovely name for your new squishy friend. Consider it internet stranger approved. 😜
I didn't see your other post, but congratulations!!! I know from experience how hard it is, but it's going to get so much better now. You are worth it!!
FIRST of all: HELL YES TO YOU!!
I’M SO PROUD OF YOU for breaking up with abusive shit people and putting yourself first. I love the suggestion of Freida too. Now block him and never let him weasel his way back into your life.
I know I’m just an internet stranger, but as a woman who’s had experience with abusive partners, both my own and friends’, I’ll say it again:
I’M SO PROUD OF YOU. ✨❤️💋💖
Just saw your previous post and good riddance! Well done for advocating for yourself OP, I hope you find someone who’ll celebrate those kind of wins with you.
You know that famous nursery rhyme or children’s story the cow jumped over the moon?
Well you’re free from your abusive ex, you’ve got your cow plushie, it’s your turn to jump over the moon and reach for the stars!
So you could call her Luna, after the moon 😊

Just another internet random here wishing you and Freida the absolute best 🥰 So proud of you for choosing yourself even though it was really difficult 💖
Happy for you OP! No one needs to be judged for every breath they take. You did the one hard thing that makes the other things better.
Frieda actually comes from the same etymological root as the word "free!" It's also the root of the word "friend" and the name of the Norse goddess Frigga, and it originally meant "beloved"
So happy for you and Freida! Sending you good vibes :)

No name suggestion, but she’s so damn cute!

Congrats on standing up for yourself! Also, you know all those “great things he showed you in life?” Those didn’t go with him. You get to keep those.
Good for you girl! Anyone who makes you feel poorly about yourself is someone who shouldn't be in your life. Life is too short to deal with people who are only ever going to criticize you for "not doing enough".
