[quote quote=458990]Hi Starlight ️

You are welcome and thank you for your kindness

It caught my eye, as I started to read your 2nd paragraph, that you placed a suicide attempt in parenthesis, as if it was secondary to the point that you didn’t help with housework?

I am that you were left alone with her partner growing up.

You say that “a lot of people might have gone through worse”-

Being gaslighted from a young age and feeling unsafe day in and day out, from my experience, is of the worst category of abuse and neglect.

You wrote in another response that she said that you chose to be born into the family- is that her religious view, or something else?

You also wrote that she may find and read this- you mean she might read the tiny buddha forums? If that’s your concern, I may be able to soothe such worry.

I hope to read back from you

Hi Anita, i mentioned the suicide attempt to add context, and it happened after her applying to do art.

Her view that i chose to be born to her in the family was part of her spiritual belief.

Yes, i think she may read tiny buddha forums. Perhaps i ought not to have posted, but i was tired of holding back. There is much more that i could say, but im not sure its best to.
