Yes, you make perfect sense. I just need the information and insight from those who've been there. I don't want you to think I was questioning you, I wasn't. kwim?

And I know how you feel about family not being supportive. When my cousin made that sexual comment and told me what he wanted to do to me, my dad didn't believe that he said that because I wouldn't go in front of my dad to confront my cousin. So my dad called me a liar and told me never to make up things like that.

I honestly think he just didn't want to believe it. Because I found out later that my cousin abused his youngest sisters when they were little (like toddler little). He was sick and my dad knew that and knew of what he'd done to his own sisters, yet called me a liar.

Another reason I hate my dad, but that's another thread for another time.
