I really want you to tell my story because I don’t fit the usual profile of vulnerable women who has issues from her family/upbringing and I want other women like me too see that it can happen to anyone and not to feel ashamed. I was made to feel like there was something wrong with me as no one could understand how I let this person abuse me because I came from a perfect middle class mum & dad both together family unit. I hate that it’s assumed that you can only be vulnerable and can only end up suffering from domestic violence if you’ve had a troubled past. It makes me feel like I’m weird.
