I do think i have been pushed past my limits, the pictures, if her are more than i can bear.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I wont use them malicously against her but unfortunately she will attempt to have yet another restraining order levied against me. I need to show that she is unbalanced. I spent the last year assembling documents proving my case. Once she admitted to an officer i called that she was hitting herself and was planning on blaming me. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt; With this information and the pictures i can prove that she is selfabusive and when she feels bad about what she has done she simply blames me for it.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I guess i will have my vengeance in a legal way where as always, all i am trying to do is pretect myself.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I truly pity this woman. Oddly if the pictures arent her i could possibly forgive her. The birthmarks and 2 spots from sun cancer { cured } are pretty tough to ignore. The woman has a tattoo that would be pretty hard to ignore also. When i knew her she didn't have one but it's in the location she always wanted one.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I haven't published the link to the page this woman is on and do not plan to do so unless i am continuously attacked.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Thanks again</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/1138874677301733568'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/1138874677301733568'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html?showComment=1178574060000#c1138874677301733568' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-7333386292717743452' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/posts/default/7333386292717743452' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-498348457'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-7720703249055428720</id><published>2007-05-07T13:06:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-05-07T13:06:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Hi Anon... &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'm going to share my thoughts ...</title><content type='html'>Hi Anon... &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I'm going to share my thoughts here as a "cyber" friend not a therapist K?

While I can't experience the pain you are in, I can imagine how it must hurt.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;But what would be really sad is if you let those feeings of anger and revenge take over your life and diminish what is possible in the future.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I just sense such hurt and sorrow beneath the (justifiable) anger and I believe that revenge won't really take it away.  What will help is to do what you can to bring health and healing into your life.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It is sort of like when someone is in a dark cave and they try to get light by fighting the darkness with darkness... what takes away the darkness is to bring in light.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I just believe that your pain will subside as you find the goodness, and I wish for the suffering to be released from your spirit.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;As you share your experience, I get a glimpse of what is in your heart... wanting a good relationship, accepting imperfection, tolerating beyond what one would normally endure.

I don't think i can let this go without revenge though. My wife and her pals surgically damaged my life and to let them win would be a travesty.

They are published publicly and dropping the link to them in certain places may be the needed medicine for me.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I know it's possibly cruel to do so, but she obviously wanted attention by having them taken.

Every week I am blamed for and reminded about what has happened to me. When the classes are done I think I will be able to wash myself of her and move on.

The costs are a drain but not crippling. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;  Even the men's groups have turned there backs on me since I was convicted of this.

If so, are you wanting a divorce?  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I would suggest that before you do anything you discuss the issue with your wife and figure out what is going on.  Is the woman is indeed her... Does she want to remain in the relationship...do you?  Are you both willing to work toward a healthy marriage, etc. etc.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;As I often mention, I truly believe most marriages can be healthy and happy if both partners are willing to work!  It is not easy and your situation is a huge challenge for sure, but it is possible.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;There are many ways to help with the hurt and heartbreak of infidelity.  There are some great support groups for starters.  Basically, one needs to work through and process the emotions, which are many.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It is a sorrowful time but there is light at the end of the tunnel.  Our hearts can mend and we can move beyond the pain.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;My heart goes out to you...&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Warmest wishes,&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Jen</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/2707517079375515965'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/2707517079375515965'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html?showComment=1178540160000#c2707517079375515965' title=''/><author><name>Jennifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04593797320592103928</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='30' src='http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q273/truthdancer/ii-1.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-7333386292717743452' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/posts/default/7333386292717743452' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-332600355'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-4774333186584606761</id><published>2007-05-07T07:08:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-05-07T07:08:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I have two anonymous' with questions so this reply...</title><content type='html'>I have two anonymous' with questions so this reply is for the first one with DV charges... :-)&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Hi Anon...  :-)&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I'm glad you replied!  I can only imagine how you must be feeling right now.  I'm guessing you will be attending classes for some time, paying for them... constant reminders of everything that has gone on in your relationship.  It is difficult to move on when one is sort of stuck in the process.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;It sounds like the first thing that needs to happen is for you and your wife to decide if you want to work things out.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I'm a FIRM believer that the majority of relationships can be healthy and happy IF (this is a big if), BOTH partners are willing to do the work!  :-)&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;In unhealthy relationships with a "history" it seems that one partner's commitment is just not enough... it takes two.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;If you and your wife decide that you do want to work things out, it will take work... lots of it but healing is possible and many couples find their relationship stronger and healthier after working through some serious trials.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;If you and your wife decide NOT to work things out then there are specific techniques to work through your grief, sorrow, and pain.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;You miss her because you shared your life with her for some time and even if the relationship was unhealthy, my guess is that there were good times as well, and you probably gave a lot of yourself to the relationship.  This sort of thing doesn't just go away... IOW, you don't get over it over night. :-(&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;If you want to prosecute the agency, I would suggest getting a good lawyer who is familiar with issues of abuse.  Also you may contact an agency that deals with the rights of men... they may have some support for you.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;To share just a few personal thoughts with you... take care of yourself.  Your situation is filled with a lot of pain and hurt and emotions can be all over the place.  It sometimes helps to step back a little and do whatever you can to move away from the anger.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Anger is a powerful emotion and while totally appropriate at times can really eat at us if we let it... ya know?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Please feel free to continue this conversation if you wish... and thank you for your kind compliment.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Blessings and peace to you,&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Jennifer</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/4774333186584606761'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/4774333186584606761'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html?showComment=1178539680000#c4774333186584606761' title=''/><author><name>Jennifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04593797320592103928</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='30' src='http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q273/truthdancer/ii-1.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-7333386292717743452' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/posts/default/7333386292717743452' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-332600355'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-1800649950487828950</id><published>2007-05-06T23:33:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-05-06T23:33:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I recently came accross some pix of a woman having...</title><content type='html'>I recently came accross some pix of a woman having sex.

I spat at her.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Shortly after she broke my kneecap.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The shelter she went to lied to the local court system , police lied etc. She went to the shelter twice, i called police 3 times and everytime they said since she wasn't abused there was nothing that could be done.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;She could even fix things between us but she obviously wanted out and decided a year of setting me up was worth it instead of simply moving back home to where she came from.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Here is what is sick. Now i go to abuse classes as the supposed aggressor and i have a good grasp on how the psychological trap affects the victims. I miss her sometimes. I have little hope for reconciilliation and less that we would ever repair what is left of our marraige. Why do i miss her ?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I do forgive her since she has lived with a physical deformity that the shelter promised to repair. Havig lived with such a problem must have taken it's toll.&lt;BR/&gt;If not for her past being so difficult i wouldn't excuse her behavior and quite frankly i couldn't forgive it.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The people that worked to convict me have no excuse and i won't rest until they regret what they have done with every fiber of their being.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;We were together a year and a half. Any idea when i can bury her and be completely rid of her ? A previous girlfriend offered herself to me and i couldn't accept. In the year we are apart i have met a few womenm but can't seem to be romantic with them in person.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Do you have any suggestions on having my ex and her cohorts prosecuted ? We are to be divorced soon and quite frankly i just cant let this go on the present terms.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I know i touched on many subjects here and i appreciate any input you have .&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I'd like to say you are a rare gem in the coal mine of Domestic Violence professionals i have encountered.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/4508541306669163472'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/4508541306669163472'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html?showComment=1178505240000#c4508541306669163472' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-7333386292717743452' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/posts/default/7333386292717743452' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1180392616'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-3401273402803387942</id><published>2007-05-06T10:39:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-05-06T10:39:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Hi Anon... one other thing just to clarify, I no l...</title><content type='html'>Hi Anon... one other thing just to clarify, I no longer work for an agency dealing with domestic violence issues.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;JJ</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/3401273402803387942'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/7333386292717743452/comments/default/3401273402803387942'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html?showComment=1178465940000#c3401273402803387942' title=''/><author><name>Jennifer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04593797320592103928</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='30' src='http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q273/truthdancer/ii-1.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.theartofloveandintimacy.com/2007/05/managing-and-diffusing-anger.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-7333386292717743452' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3240135571858542479/posts/default/7333386292717743452' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-332600355'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3240135571858542479.post-8259145014128314154</id><published>2007-05-06T10:37:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-05-06T10:37:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Hi Anon..&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ahhhh I'm very sorry for your sit...</title><content type='html'>Hi Anon..&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Ahhhh I'm very sorry for your situation.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Our legal system is certainly not a perfect one, and unfortuantely there are situations that prove this.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;My post was not meant to blame anyone but to alert us all to the dangers of violence and anger, particularly in relationships.
