 A survivor
by: Darlene Barriere - webmaster

I certainly understand your feelings about trusting men, Sara. But not all men are like your molesting father and his disgusting, perverted friends. They should all be in prison for the rest of their lives for what they did to you. And your father should be leading the way!

I do have to wonder though, where was your mother in all this? Why wasn't she doing anything to protect you? The fact that your mother was a work while your dad sexually assaulted you isn't enough of a reason for her not to keep you safe. Both your parents failed you, Sara, both of them.

I sincerely hope you are getting some form of counselling for what you've had to, and still have to, deal with. You deserve it, and you are certainly strong enough to endure what you need to endure in order to start the healing and recovery process. You have more than proven that, Sara.

 I understand
by: LLS Buffalo

Hi,
Sara, I understand exactly your feeling of not wanting to be with a man. I have been molested multiple times and one guy tried to rape me. Trust is a very hard thing to regain. I want to say to give it a long, long time. You don't need a man to complete you. In the future it may happen but if it doesn't have confidence in yourself to succeed alone. I still have flashbacks and issues with intimacy. It is difficult to have a relationship this way. I am married but getting divorced this year due to other issues. Those people are real scum for what they did to you. Don't let them take the rest of your life over though. They stole your innocence and childhood. But now your life is yours. It's all you. Life is good. Make it the way YOU SAY IT SHOULD BE. Keep doing what your doing and everyday when you wake up be happy that you are the onle in control finally. I know I am. Best wishes, and congratulations for making it through.

 OMG you could stand that?
by: SadGirl700

It's so gross that some people are like your father. The idea of sexual abuse makes me want to vomit. My own father sometimes touch my butt and my breasts, luckily now I'm safe with my foster family. But compared to you, I'm counted as lucky. I just hope no other kids have to stand this kind of abuse.

 you're a survivor

I'm so sorry you had to go through this, it must have been awful for you. What happened to you was not your fault and you are so strong to be able to move past what your dad did to you. Your dad's friends are just as bad and they all belong in prison for what they did to you.
Your mum is also wrong to not have realised what was going on, she should have stopped it, it was her job to protect you and she failed. Maybe in time you will learn to trust men, you deserve to feel what it can feel like to be loved and respected by someone in a relationship. Either way I hope you are happy and you should be so proud that you survived what happened.

 It really hurts...
by: Pained reader

It really really hurts to read this. You are a truly amazing person to have got your life back in control. That is in the past but i've always remember that the plants planted in the darkest soil are the one's who flourish the most. I know that you must be a truly incredable person now and i wish you great love in everything you do. Don't ever let it get you down and if it does, keep smiling because it will never stop you doing what you want to in life. Bless, justin x
