ORIGINAL: Lockit LadyPact's words may seem sharp to many, but as someone that has worked in this area as well as I have, there are times when you must look a victim in the eye and ask them how long they are going to use their victimization as a coping tool. You can be victimized without becoming a life victim and if you are a lifelong victim, I must ask... who is victimizing you? The one that victimized you is gone... it is over... you can find counsel and heal... but if you are still a victim... you are doing it to yourself and will never be stable and happy until you stop holding on to your victimization. Even those that have been abused at young ages and for long periods can come through a true survivor. Not just someone that gets through it and still has an open wound, but someone that can heal, move on, have healthy relationships, no denial and no excuses. Even flashbacks can become a thing of the past. There were times when I had to bring on the tears with some of the ladies. I had to point out some truth that hurt them and it broke my heart to do it, but I knew it had to be done. I knew it to be correct by the results. Anyone who has been abused at any age... knows of lies and deceit. To be ignorant of it after that is denial. Then I would suggest... stop looking for a knight in armour or a relationship and get yourself to a good counselor. This but more than this, gorgeoushair, it appeared to me that you were using that abuse to gain sympathy which is disgusting Thank you, Zeph. It appears I don't have to write my own posts this afternoon, I can just follow you around the boards.
