Hey native, Great to hear you & your D had a wonderful time!!! A nice escape - I bet. What nice memories your D will have!!!

Unfortunately, for you w/your W, it seems you are guilty by association, in that you are a man. Her rape, her being a victim, has been blamed on someone else & that might every well be appropriate. It seems like in your M & what she is saying to you, that she is still in that victim, blaming role. Only she can break free of that. Still, it is good you are trying to understand her & let her know this. Ah, if she would only read some books about men & see your POV. Since leaving you, here life has not been a bed of roses. She must see that. I hope she does read the book. If she cannot take any steps forward & stop with the past, you cannot take many steps forward w/her either.

Good to see you are back though, missed your posts. So are dance classes on the horizon for your D?
