I am now married (again) after going through some lousy relationships. This time it feels different though, probably because I've started to deal with all the Straight garbage.
Straight taught me to yell, cuss, fight to get what I thought was right...though most of the time I was wrong! It took me two severe beatings from an ex and lots of drugs to make me realize that there had to be more to life than misery.
I now choose to be drug free, and to do that I have to deal with the Straight shit. And sometimes it feels like I'm going through hell, but I'll be better off in the long run.
I have a wonderful daughter, and an extremely understanding and loving husband. These two people honestly support me, and love me no matter what kind of hell I have gone through. I know they are always going to be there for me. At first I was scared to share all this with them, but now know that they aren't going anywhere just because they know what I can be.
