I was abused for 4 years. Mentally, physically, emotionally, and sometimes sexually.

Sometimes it's hard to keep out conversations from my current relationship. Because I am still dealing with court. My current boyfriend doesn't know a lot, he just knows I was abused. But when stuff does come up he gets weird and makes me feel like I should be embarrassed.

But, like it or not the abuse happened and I have to live with that. I was hurt for along time and unfortunately it's a big part of my life. I can't run away from it and I'm tired of feeling like I should be embarrassed or upset that I got hurt. It wasn't my fault. And I don't want to feel like I have to hide it either.

Or is this thinking wrong and I shouldn't bring it up around him??
