Now you guys are not very nice! I am not sure what to say? Uh, whatever accomplishments I have, whatever nice things I own, whatever good has come out of my life, has to do with letting go of the past.
I did not let that control me for very long. Initially, in the beginning, yes. But, then I had to take care of myself. Nobody cared about my troubled past. Most people don't even know someone who has been through a program. Very few can relate.
15 years later I stumbled upon this site like I said because I did move to a new area, where I did not know a soul. My life went from working 60-70 hour weeks, to 0. So, I had time to reflect. I wouldn't say I did not have any friends. My friends were only 2 hours away. Always available by phone, and since I wasn't working I spent most weekends in the bay area with my friends.
You think you know me so well, but you really don't. Talk all the shit you want about me, like you have been, ever since I disagreed with you on some things you said. That is fine.
When it comes down to it, I have been able to take responsibility for my actions. I have been able to forgive others for theirs. Like I said as far as emotional baggage goes, some of you need a uhaul to pack it around, while I am sporting a small overnight bag. I have my issues, but not like some of you who i believe to be deeply troubled.
The reason I brought up the seducing of male staff was to let others really understand the inside scoop on it. Not because I am proud of it. Back then it was a game. A game I regret playing.
I understand that some of you may need to twist my words. I understand I am a threat to this board. Otherwise, you could care less what I say. You wouldn't be deleting or changing my posts if you weren't threatened.
You obviously are.
