I just assumed it was love, and assumed what I owed because of it, without either of us ever saying it out loud. Short version: Trauma bonding is usually described as something that happens to you, almost by accident, through unpredictable reward. A 2025 Cambridge study, interviewing eighteen women with sustained attachment to abusive partners, found something sharper underneath that: the closeness itself is often deliberately constructed early on, specifically so it can be exploited later.

I Sacked My Husband of 24 years

Hi there,


I just wanted to share some exciting news with you all - I sacked my husband! Yes, you read that right. He was an absolute arsehole who stole the bed linen, destroyed my personal possessions, and was constantly high on drugs and alcohol. It was a toxic environment that I knew I needed to escape from in order to start my second life of sanity and freedom.


Let me tell you, it was not an easy decision to make, but I realized that I am worth so much more than being treated like that. And you know what? So are you, if you've been through a similar experience. Don't ever settle for less than you deserve.


I am now feeling happier and more empowered than ever before, and I want to encourage anyone who may be going through a similar situation to take that leap of faith and prioritize their own well-being. Trust me, you won't regret it.


Here's to new beginnings and a life filled with happiness and freedom!


Sending you all lots of love and positivity,


Xxx
