Coffee Drinker:
I want to thank you SOOOO much for your "blunt" post. Even the guidance counselor used the euphemism "unsafe behavior," so it's been fairly easy for me to keep sailing down that big river in east Africa. No longer, thanks to your post and others here.
Please...keep saying it like it is to those of us in denial about abuse...I will do the same.
Namaste,
