"No one could understand how love, hate, fear and comfort could coexist
simultaneously. They could not understand that in addition to my abuser,
I also lost my confidant, the person to make dinner with, the person to
watch movies with on a rainy Sunday, the person to laugh with, the
person who knew me. I lost my companion. How can you explain to someone
that the abuse was only a part of who he was? How do you explain that to
yourself?"
This one really hit home, for me... He Never Hit Me (Warning: This post contains descriptions of intimate partner abuse and may be triggering to some.)
