I can see how you would feel like that, but you have got to remember that this girl is sick. She has been thru a lot of trauma. She doesn't trust -- she feels that all men are the same. She feels that she will ALWAYS be hurt because that's ALL she has ever known. And when it comes to sex, that has always been the "weapon" that men used against her.

She needs help -- she needs a therapist badly. To wonder if she loves you is valid because she might not be able to love ANYONE right now. She probably doesn't even love herself and before you can love someone else, you HAVE to love yourself. Her self esteem is undoubtedly in the pits. Men have destroyed her self-esteem.

If you two have any kind of open communication at all, try to talk her into going into therapy. Otherwise, she's not going to have any kind of life at all. She desperately needs it ~ and hopefully you can get her to go. I send you both my prayers. God bless you. Hugs, Lee
Thanks for this!
