That post takes possession of your own experience without shaming without denying without minimizing and without deflecting. It just says what happened.

I respect that the place you were in was not a good one. It seems like you were "seeing" what happened and were able to acknowledge the wrongness of it. That in itself is huge.

To me your post is very powerful. I hope you let it stay but I very much understand if it feels like too much.

But yay you for having the courage to see and to own that for that little bit of time.

It is important!!


Thank you!

I would like for it to stay, but I can’t edit the request anymore. I guess time has run out to do that.

Your responses are very validating to me and I would like for them to stay.

They actually put a level of realness to it.
