You're right...this poor excuse of a man did not love you. He "groomed" you and took advantage of your vulnerabilities; vulnerabilities that were both age related and as a result of your abusive environment. That's what pedophiles and sex offenders do. You now miss what he represented, which is the love and acceptance you didn't (don't) get at home. But he didn't show you love; he sexually assaulted you. You were not in a position to "willingly" have sex with this offender, you didn't have a "relationship with him"...you could not consent. Please speak with a trusted adult, perhaps a trusted teacher or school counselor, and tell this adult what this sex offender did to you and what's happening in your home. You are beautiful just the way you are. You don't need a pedophile creep to tell you that. You must learn to believe it yourself. Please consider contacting Child Help at 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453) in order to talk to someone about what you are dealing with. They are staffed 24/7 with professionally trained counsellors who will listen to you. Visit their website by copying & pasting the following URL into your browser: http://www.childhelp.org/get_help

IT's hard to see...
by: AnonymousT

when you feel loyalty and love for someone that they didn't feel the same way. It hurts.

I urge you to call the numbers Darlene listed, if anything it helps to SAY what happened and then also get feedback from someone.

My advice to you is to call the numbers, find something you love and throw yourself into it, and write. If you can get involved in something (band, music, art, sports)you throw your hurt and anger and pain into that. If you write, it helps to SEE your words and feelings on paper.

Lots of luck to you. Now it's time to take care of Tilly.
