Young couple goes on van tour of US, boy comes back with van - no girl

I know. And those women use the "knowledge" that it's only men who abuse to their advantage and it's disgusting. I dunno, I guess the only thing I can really do is, 1, not be an abuser myself; and, 2, not be in a relationship with an abuser just because I "love" them esp. when I have other choices and resources. People want to go back and redo what the police did because they want there to be a different outcome and they feel powerless. I think that's how I express that same feeling by wanting there to be "education" to our young people and knowing that's not going to change a thing till we change within ourselves.
Agreed, it is only when you empower young people with knowledge that they can learn they are being abused. I didn't even know until I left the house. I thought everyone endured that so I just kept my mouth shut.

PS: I hate your sister
Don't bother. I gave up a long time ago. I reached a point of indifference. If I hate then I still care on some level. If I am indifferent I am over it imho.

Besides, I was there. She didn't have it much better than me. I wish I could say I forgive her and I do understand her problems. I've given her every chance, but she still cannot admit what she did and offer an honest apology nor has she changed her behavior. Therefore, she's nothing to me as sad as that is.
