You may have had to give up or slow down a promising career, academic achievements, or other activities that your partner did not approve of. You may also have had to give up people you care about because your partner was jealous of them or saw them as a threat. How amazing will you feel when you realize that there is nothing stopping you from getting back everything that was once dear to you!
