"Abused (emotionally and physically), and soon to be abandoned again. "
Hold on for a minute, missy. Who took off to the airport? Who called around and found a place to stay? Who is saying clean up or else?
There was *attempted* physical and emotional abuse there, but you refused to accept it as your due.
You deserve a whole bunch of back pats for that.
"If I haven't changed after 37 years, the probabiity that the same cycle will repeat itself over and over is so high as to be cataclismic."
Refer to what I put above. I'm seeing changes and I hardly know you. I know you are tired - and rightly so after this last merry-go-round - but when you get rest enough to look, I hope you can see that:
THIS TIME YOU ARE NOT A DOORMAT.
