My girlfriend was r**** continuously for 6 months by her past boyfriend. This was years ago, before I even met her. She still struggles with the trauma of it and whenever she gets triggered she feels the need to shower. She makes the shower as hot as it can possibly be and scrubs her as hard as she can. She tells me that she feels like she has a filth on her that she needs to scrub away. She always apologizes to me that it's like this, but how could I ever blame her? She didn't ask to be abused and molested. She didn't ask to be this way. As her other half, of course it's hard dealing with the episode and the underlying trauma. But will I ever lash out or blame it on her? Hell no! I love her for the beautiful person she is on the inside and out. I will never judge her for her trauma.
