Yeah but I have been seeing them on and off since I was 7 years old. The first one I saw would always have my mum in the room with us though. Since they assumed I was anxious and depressed about the bullying they never thought of me being screwed around with - especially since that started on my seventh birthday so I was really young. Since mum was there I was terrified of upsetting her by telling her 'the secret'.
I had no idea about sex so I thought it was completely normal and since my mum and eldest sister had their period at 7 and 9 I was just taught how to out on a pad if I bled. It wasn't until I actually got my period when I was 11 and told my dad that I think I have Gag's baby. My dad was like My parents had planned to give me the talk when I was going to high school at the end of that year. By then it had been going on for six years and by the time I was 11 it was really just another afternoon so I just tried my best to forget and just read my books, The world was really **** to me but I just used my intelligence to avoid any sort of serious discussion. Even typing this somehow terrifies me. So I would just talk about my future and persuade the conversation towards any other topic - so most of the time we would be just talking about how my mum, dad, brothers and sisters were acting (which basically broke down during the court case- which lasted four years thanks to appeals). Like I won the court case and all and he has been charged for related charges since my case made others want to come forward and now they had my case .
I guess I am just exhausted from that whole ordeal. He was put away the day before my 18th and it was also the same day as my university acceptance letter so I kinda just figured that I should take step. The only problem with that is the level of my families dysfunction. I love them all so damn much don't get me wrong. I continuously solve problems that would put a tv sitcom to shame aha
But in all seriousness no I haven't seen anyone really since I was 19 - and I am 21 now.
