That you can write about these experiences with such beauty and grace is astounding, Anastasia. I cried for the young version of you that had to endure so much. It’s so fascinating to me that when we’re living life as our teenage selves, we think we’re so grown up and capable of making the right decisions for ourselves, but without loving guidance it’s near impossible to stay safe. Like Kristin, I wish I could go back in time and give you a huge hug.
I should clarify, that this is in the context of early sexual experiences with our peers, not sexual assault. I deeply resonated with your expressions of looking for something missing in sexual relationships and coming up empty.
I wish I could hug you and contribute to healing your inner child. You deserved more. ♥️
Thank you, Kristin. This is a kind of hug <3
