You are transferring your anger toward your boyfriend for what all those despicable men did to you. You will drive him away, unless you get help for yourself. And trust me when I say that your relationship is anything but functional. You're hurting too badly for it to be functional. And while I applaud that you have stopped doing drugs and that you aren't drinking as much as before, you are still looking for ways to deal with the pain. Please seek out some form of counseling so that you can more appropriately deal with that pain. As fearful of counseling as you might be, remember that you've already survived the most fearful stuff of all: the actual sexual assaults, the betrayal and the abandonment. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.

I understand
by: Sunshine

I thought it was just me, that there is something wrong wiht me, that I have no desire, that I am bored, that I have to be drunk before I have sex with my OWN husband. Its not fair that my abusers took my right to my body away, my right to feel desired and feel desired.... their selfishness to satisy their own needs goes beyond belief.I understand you Polly I really do, cant offer you any advice as I have not figured it out for myself. What I wont allow them, is that I am very careful with alcohol , that I dont need it or become addicted to it.. they will not be allowed that win. They have taken enough from me. I love my husband very much, he is such a good man and oneday I pray I will feel again.
Good luck Polly, you sound a strong and lovley woman and I thank God that you too have found a loving man, maybe love will win after all.

Take care love

I felt very sad upon reading your story. Thanks for sharing and I hope that one day you can find true happiness. I understand your reason for having such disappointed in your mother and animosity towards men, but you are taking your anger out on the wrong person. You said you forgave but will not forget. To genuinely forgive means to act as if though something has never happened. Some people are stronger than others and have better coping mechanisms. You have dealt with your pain by turning to drugs. Now that is out of the picture, you started drinking. That addiction is no better... you find one addiction and quit it... but that first addiction will always lead to another, sometimes more fatal - more deadly. You have a good man in front of you and you say your relationship manages to be functional. On the contrary, it is anything but that. Take advantage of this man you have, before you end up being alone for the rest of your life. Work a little on "self" each day... learn what it means to truly love yourself. It begins with you before love of any sort can be directed towards other people. 29 years old, grown, and consumed by pain. You have to start somehwere... sometime... so start now. Leave the pain in the past, live in the present, and look forward to the future. You will be alright, I know this. You have made it this far... You are strong and worthy of being happy. You are beautiful and deserve to know the good that life has to offer. I wish you well.

Hi Polly,

I am now going on 36 and in love with my husband but struggle everyday to have an intimate relationship with him. Hun you need to get help and believe me it will help. Thank you for sharing your story with us because take it from me you just made a big difference in my life. "I am not alone"

Regards,
