Hiya from Europe

[whereupon]

Thanks everybody for the welcome =) Good to know I'm not making too many mistakes while writing. Never tried my English on native speakers before.

Which country? Best place to find a pair of Turkish Muslims is Turkey, but I make no assumptions

Fair enough as it's true, a wee bit part of Turkey is on the European continent, but I never think of it as a part of Europe. I live in the second best place in the world to find Turkish people actually - Germany.

I'll bet that you're just fine, and that there's nothing a hug can't fix.

Thanks for the hug I may not be fine, but I'm willing to get there at least.

I cannot know if it was or was not pathetic, given how few details are suggested to me, but if <Increasingly abusive family members> is a true value: perhaps you should stay run away, find someone non-abusive to make yourself not-lonely, and build your own sense of self-confidence and strength

But then, I ran away from abuse, and I'm a whole lot happier today for it, so I'm biased.

Oh, don't get me wrong, the only pathetic part is that I had to literally run and hide instead of being able to move out and live my life in peace. My family and our community is pathetic for thinking they can hold me captive in a country like Germany instead of seeing sense and compromising.
I don't think that going back to my family would be better. I just find it difficult to find happiness in this new life. But as it is very new I'll just have to give myself some time to find anything, let alone something as complex as happiness.
It makes me all fuzzy to hear that you're happier for leaving though

I didn't want to make my intro broing and long, figured I could get the whole story off my chest on the convert-subforum sometimes.
