I agree. It's because of those that lie that many of us in real DV situations (like mine with my birth family) are not always believed. It's also hard as nails to get many of you men to trust us good women as the lies shatter faith that you men have in us all.

I'm sorry. I am going through them myself with mine and it's so many layers of hell.

I wish you the best with yours. Try to retain your sense of self and belief in the good ones of us. 

Good luck.
