Girl's Behavior

Fairytales exist, for me anyway

For as long as I can remember, bad things have always happened to me.


My mother used to beat me. Her boyfriend used to rape me while she stood there and watched. She dumped me on my fathers doorstep when I was 13. She said she didn't want me anymore. I wasn't safe at my dad's either. My step brother raped me numerous times, until I was 14. Too scared to speak up, to say anything. He went to juvenile hall, but only because his little sister said something.


My dad took me to various doctors. They said I had depression and ADHD. They also said I still had the mind of a 5 year old. I was 15. I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome when I was 18. I never got to learn how to drive a car or find my first apartment by myself. I never got a job. Too afraid to go out into the world, away from the safety of my father.

Everything changed when I was 23. I fell in love. I met him in May 2012. Moved in with him in October 2012. Got engaged in November 2012. Since I have been with him, I am no longer the timid little girl that I use to be.
I stand up for myself and others. I see myself as beautiful.


Fairytales do exist. Just depends on how you look at it all.
