Folks here like you because you are not defined as a person by the abuse you received hon. There are many here who have been abused in their lives, but it doesn't mean we don't like them or don't care about them because they've been abused.

We do not judge people here by whether or not they have been abused. Our community is one that embraces others who have difficulties because we are all fighting a battle of survival and looking for acceptance and love and understanding, no matter what our issues in life are.

Hi Roz

I agree with Sabby. People here can relate to the abuse you've had to endure, so it's not really an issue. What happened to you in the past simply made you who you are today. So what if people happen to like you. Why???

When people who have had similar abuse get together, I think stronger bonds are formed. It's nice to know you're not alone. Why???

I think it's because you and people like you have been hurt by the people that were supposed to love you.

They are only afraid for you... that this person you found love with will eventually hurt you.

They have their gaurds up. They care for you RozG. I don't think it's because they don't want you to be happy. I think they genuinly love and care for you. Don't be so hard on them, you might react in the same way if the shoe were on the other foot.

Congratulations in your new relationship. I hope all works out.
