The positive of being married to financially abusive narcissist is that we have very few vacation/travel/memories together. This means I don't have any bad feelings about anyplace I travel. It's all new and fresh and safe because he never existed in those places.
I took my boys to California a few years ago and it was refreshing to be able to make plans and go anywhere without someone sneering, complaining, and having a manufactured breakdown when he noticed anyone having a good time. He did this in several places, but thankfully it was limited and we never went back.
We did a East Coast road trip that was exciting and later went to NYC.
Alhammdulillah for freedom.
