This is very insightful. And you know “fuck” is one of my favorite words! ;)
The truth is, I don’t know what to think of him at this point. There was goodness there. I don’t ultimately think he’s a bad person. I think he has been as damaged by the patriarchy as I have been, but in ways that I cannot share in public because it would reveal too much about him and I don’t want to “out” him. I’m trying to find a way to talk about that part of it… I know it’s important to get my own anger out and speak my truth, but I also don’t want to throw him under the bus. He certainly deserves to take responsibility for his part in all of this, but also…I want to try to be as fair as possible. (When I’m not so angry.)
