someone asked me today why I'm not going to see my parents on christmas

bare in mind, this person knows the situation and that they arn't allowed to be near me because of the abuse they inflicted

I said well, you know why. I all ready told you before

and then she's like well.. if you could see them for christmas, would you?
uh... no. I wouldn't. after what they have done to me

I think she meant somethingl ike, if you had family who loved you and apreciated you, would you see them?

but it didn't feel like that. it felt like saying well... you choose not to se them, and you choose to be lonely.
no, I choose to follow the rules of the court, and I choose not to be abused

it really frustrated me today

It can be so frustrating when someone just doesn't doesn't 'get it.' I hope that person's lack of understanding stops bothering you soon

People can be unbelievably obtuse and insensitive. My heart goes out to you!

Just stick to your guns! You are right to protect yourself from further abuse.

That's rough RV. I don't blame you for not wanting to spend the holidays with your parents, I wouldn't either. Sending hugs I hope you don't let their comments take up too much headspace.
