Welcome to Steemit @enzian.
Wow. It seems through your writing that you are still hurting from the wrong that you have been done. :c/ This article serves well as a warning to those less aware - of what to look out for.
It is my hope that you will thrive. Such would be the ultimate revenge and it is something that she has no control over any more.
On a different note, since you're new here, here is a post that you will likely find helpful.
I think that you are on the right track (keep in mind that posts are quite permanent here so only post what you won't eventually regret) and just keep in mind that it takes time and effort to build up any income here (posts, comments, curation/votes (and followers), etc.).
Thanks for the advice. I've purposefully left out names and things like that to try and remain anonymous while processing some of the events I've blogged about here. You may be glad to know that I'm actually doing pretty well, all things considered, and I have fully accepted the advice that the best revenge is to live well without her. I'm just trying to make a log of some insights as I research more and more; I'll probably turn to some different subject matter fairly soon so I'm not seen as a "one trick pony" here.
You are welcome. :c)
Yes it is a good idea to refrain from names upon such an open medium. And yes, I am glad to hear that you are doing good - but its clear that this subject still touches a nerve.
Thats fine. Continue to talk about it. There is nothing wrong with spending time as 'a one trick pony' :c) You could recount different angles upon your very valid experience gained from this. Rationalize it. Define the signs. Your compromises made. Anything. Overlap is fine but ensure that each post about it can stand well enough on its own.
Such could help other guys or girls out there to identify such a user sooner, sparing them some of the hurt that you have experienced.
Once 'you' are ready to move on from the subject, then you can explore new horizons. ^_^
Good luck! And remember that some of that luck is made by you. You've got your back even if nobody else might and thats more powerful a backing than having the entire World on your side but not yourself! :cP Shine on.
