Out of all the men that have ever abused/raped me, many of them were addicted to one thing or another. It didn’t mean a damn thing when it came down to it. A lot of people in my life have been addicted to things and even more have had…

KH came home tonight with some bags, and naturally, I inquired as to the contents.
