Dear Rainbow,

From what I read in your post it sounds as though your mother had her own unresolved issues and that she was taking them out on you - the physical abuse you suffered (may God heal every one of your wounds) could have been from the anger that your mother held in her own soul from her past or from her husband / male friends.... she saw all FEMALES as sluts for they stole her man - or at least in her mind they did, where if the TRUTH were to be told it was the male that did the running around and a female just happen to be who he ran with.

Does any of that sound true to your situation? - or am I am barking up the wrong tree here?

LoVe,
