<font color="green"> I think forgiving ourselves has to come first. Please try to realize that you were not responsible for what he did. You were a child and he was an adult. For me, I have had to get to a mental understanding first and then work towards getting a heart understanding. Sometimes it seems that my heart does get it but often I feel the old shame and guilt bubble up.
I am better now in general thanks to therapy and HARD, painful work.
