That is a real bummer. That’s what court advocate are there for, to provide emotional and instrumental support to victims/survivors.

If he goes on to kill another woman, the only person responsible for that action is him. She is not responsible for another human being’s actions.

The point is stopping someone from killing them in that moment. If someone is attacking me and I call 911, I am not calling because I want that person to be prosecuted. I am calling because if I do not, then I might die.

She told them beforehand that she was not coming. They decided to proceed anyway. That is not her fault.

Good. I work in DV advocacy. DV is already way under-reported.

I have a sorority sister who did pageants. She looks totally normal, but her pageant makeup made her look 43 when she was 21. I would show her pictures to people and ask them how old they thought she was. Never got an answer under 35.

On the day of my junior prom, my mom accidentally took her Ambien in the morning. It was in the same drawer as her allergy pill and she wasn’t paying attention.

I’m sorry you’re going through this. I have PTSD relating to a history of teen dating violence, and there was a period a few years ago where I couldn’t read an internet comment section without feeling afraid of all men.
