I am a survivor of domestic abuse

I am now in a very happy marriage, have three beautiful kids, have a very comfortable HHI, and have a stable, boring job. Most people would be shocked to learn these things about me.


Have you had therapy?

Does your spouse know?

Do you think there are emotional scars that influence how you I aren’t?

Yikes!


The way some people are around here and their common sense in driving id say many people in this area could have parents who were closely related.

Are you married?

If yes, that is not okay.

If not, what do you fear about coming out?

Then why are you keeping it as a secret? Go scream about it.


You know, now that a stranger on the Internet had given me permission, maybe I will 🙄🙄🙄


Why keep it a secret if you don't regret it though?
