Update to my last post - #SexualAssault #dadhatesme
***Trigger Warning***
I swear my dad hates me.
Fist of all he blames me for all the sexual abuse I went through, as a teenager and as a young adult when I was raped. That according to the conversation my parents and I had May 1.
Growing up he shamed me and embarrassed me with the things he'd say, "Your headlights are showing," "If you didn't have epilepsy or weren't a Christian, you'd be sleeping on the streets with every guy that came long, pregnant with 3 kids," and so on.
He didn't protect me when I was molested in the CN Tower elevator and he shunned me the rest of the day when I needed his support - I was 12.
Now he says I deserve these, the others I went through, and the rape when I was 26. And he's got mom, and possibly my brother all on his level of thinking. God says There is therefore now no condemnation Romans 8:1. Is his opinion greater than the Bible's? Even Tamar was not condemned in the Old Testament www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/cruelty-victim-blaming-ho...
So does my dad hate me? It sure feels that way.
