trigger warning
I just heard this for the first time, and it took me immediately back to the worst night of my life, a night where I was actually tied to my own bed and didn't know if I'd live to see the dawn. "You were high when I was doomed..."
I don't want to get into it too much, but it did make me a better person in spite of him. I went on to become an advocate for survivors of rape. I went on to empathize with others who have suffered. I've done so much and come so far.

I met a woman named Nicole who initially taught me what love was, and that it was nothing like what he had taught me. "she made me love, she made me love, she made me love more..."
Very similar experience. Thank you for sharing. I completely agree- took me back. I'm in tears right now as I write this. You are strong, and so am I, in spite of them.

For me though, I think that the "she" is my own self. I'm working tremendously right now (therapy etc.) to believe in myself. Once I can do that, I think I'll be able to love more.
