[quote=Anonymous]Several years ago I went through a phase like this. My poor husband was so patient at the time. What was really going on was that after the birth of my sons, I was forced to confront childhood sexual assaults I had essentially compartmentalized before that time. But having my little boys be the same age I was when I was assaulted and realizing just how vulnerable I was made me enormously angry, not just at my assaulter but at the world that coddled and protected him while leaving me vulnerable.

There are so, so many women with sex abuse in their histories, and we are taught not to talk about it. I didn’t tell anyone for years, not even my husband. But it festers and harms. And we don’t always handle it well.

I had to get therapy. And honestly, some days it is still a fight within myself not to be angry at what happened to me. But I don’t lash out at all men and in fact I am very careful not to because I have sons who are good boys and men, and I am married to a good man.

So maybe ask her what is going on? There might be more than you know. [/quote]
