I am here for Friends

About Me


I'm a fighter, I'm a survivor, I'm a bitch. I've been through hell, and come out on the other side stronger than I was to begin with. I've lived through child abuse, childhood sexual abuse, incest, rape, verbal abuse, emotional abuse, financial abuse, just about any type of abuse a person can live through. And I am still being abused, I KNOW I am still being abused, but because my abuser is who they are (I'm not naming names or relationships), and are as ill as they are, I feel guilty for even thinking about trying to get away from it until they are in a better place.I'm a mother, and am trying to shelter my children from the abuse I take as best I can (my abuser does NOT abuse my children, thank the Goddess).

I am a wife. My husband stands beside me and helps me stand strong as best he can.

I am also a proud Pagan woman.

My Interests

Whatever catches my eye and piques my interest today.

I'd like to meet:

Someone who can put up with me and not run screaming. Someone who can be my friend, and not try to solve my problems for me, or tell me how to live my life, and not get pissed at me because I don't do what they tell me to how or when they tell me to. I know the mistakes I'm making. I know what I'm doing, and I know all too well what the consequenses are going to be.

Music:



just about anything

Movies:

Lots

Television:

not a lot

Books:

Most anything that is readable

Heroes:

Our military men and women, and my chosen family who have been able to put up with me for so long. And most of all, my beloved husband.
