I didn't react the same as you do. I would constantly ask, "Why are you so good to me?" and I would be waiting for it to all go wrong. BUT, It's been almost 3 years and I'm still happier than ever and I still find myself amazed at how great being happy feels. I don't ask him, "Why are you so good to me?" as much as I used. I know that he's good to me because that's how it's supposed to be. Great post! I know this feeling all too well. I didn’t react the same as you do.

Great post!

That's all you need to say. a great piece of advice i once received about how to accept compliments, and will now pass on to you: when someone gives you a compliment, say “thank you”.

You've got all there brain patterns around being Not Happy and Treated Badly, that you've just gotta make new patterns around being Happy and Treated Awesomely. I've gone through what you're going through...steady, stable, healthy, and happy just feels *weird* after numerous dysfunctional relationships. You get past it though, and you're doing all the work in order to get through it! Good for the both of you. Go! Be Happy!! :D You’re totally right, mama!

Changing those patterns are really difficult, and I wish you the best of luck with it - because you do deserve to be happy :) That’s so sad, and yet so fantastic.

And if my own experiences are any indication, it's certainly possible to learn how to let yourself be happy. It takes time and effort, but I think you can do it! And you certainly deserve it. Even through just your blog it's obvious that you're awesome. You're smart, you care about things that matter, you educate (I've learned a lot from your writings), and you inspire. You inspired me to share the story of my sexual abuse. Reading about your decision to move to Boston and pursue happiness, you inspire me to grab my own life by the horns and go for what I want. You inspire me to speak out. You inspire me when you fight back against the bad things in life and the things that have happened to you and when you strive to grow, like you're doing right now. I know you're human and you have flaws like anyone else, and I know I don't know everything about you, but in my humble opinion, you've got it where it counts. And I want you to know that you've done something that has positively impacted someone else. So good for you, you deserve it. (P.S. Your blog is also where I first discovered Lady Gaga, and my life would have far less fabulosity in it if it weren't for that, so thanks for that too.) Yay! I’m glad you’re happy.
