Hello everyone, I’m new in the coffee room, and this topic caught my eye instantly.
MiddlePath, I commend you for your courage and wish you continuous success.
‘happiest’, as long as your abuser is free, you will not have menuchas hanefesh. Discuss the matter with a therapist and/or rabbi and work out a strategy. Abusers must be stopped, it’s a question of dinei nefashos. Good luck.
