Yes. 4 relationships. I was abused and did abuse them back, they always started it though. I am not proud of myself but I was definitely ALWAYS living with them and trapped, either in another city or without a vehicle at the time, so I was reacting with abuse. Still have an injured knee and a horribly scarred up left arm over. Constant trust issues with men at this point, constantly thinking my new bf is cheating on me, PTSD (undiagnosed but I am sure I have it). I think because of Asperger's I am quite trusting and naive and can't really trust my own judgement, and coming from a background where everyone teased me and bullied me, including my entire family, the abuse was normalized and I thought, oh, this is just normal honestly, nothing new to me. I'm sorry to everyone here and thanks for sharing your stories.
