Thank you for sharing your story. I too was raped! It all started when I was between 5 or 6 years old and it went on for a couple years. I would never forget. Only it was one of my own family members that did it to me. I blamed myself for years and I would never be in a descent relationship because I have a trust issue. I am always thinking that someone is out to harm me. Sometimes, I wonder if this scar the pain would ever go away. I am happy that you have found peace and I pray that God will continue to heal you!

Comment on A Monster in Disguise- Marie’s Story by Monse Salinas

I believe this is the worst story I have read or heard. I am so sorry that you had to go through this. I agree with you that the justice system ABSOLUTELY needs to get a better handle on this issue. To this day, the man that beat, raped and humiliated my mom is not in jail. The police took a police report and he got himself a lawyer, he never went to court, no punishment, NOTHING. I have so much anger towards him, I can’t even bear it sometimes. It’s like all the things my mom went through were for nothing. He should be rotting in jail, but instead he ran away like the coward he is. I hope no other woman goes through this with him, I pray no one else falls for him only to realize too late the monster he really is.

I too, when I read this, was crying. You are so brave for sharing your story and specially for forgiving him. My mom is a domestic violence survivor, and I witnessed her getting hurt for many years. I still don’t think I have forgiven him, I don’t know how I could. My mom is a strong woman and has forgiven him a long time ago. I recently found out that aside from his humiliation and physical damage towards my mom, he would also rape her; I couldn’t believe it. I always ask myself how can she forgive him for that? But, I always look towards her for inspiration, I hope one day I can forgive him too. Thanks for sharing your story and I’m sorry that people like that exist in this world. Thanks for helping me come closer to forgiveness, I hope one day I can finally achieve it.

Tamela,
I am sitting here after reading your story weeping for you and what you had to endure at the hands of this evil man. I commend you for having the courage to tell your story and also for having the strength to forgive your attacker. It is in doing this that gives woman like us the power to live our “God Given” lives and to be able to help others that have been subjected to such inhumane treatment. I am so glad you know it was not your fault. You are now in my prayers. Thank you for sharing.
Laura White, (a domestic violence survivor).
