I knew that there was an underlying thing there that I was never really able to come face to face with. There's a part of me that wants to always protect myself because of what I had gone through. But I learned that you have to let people in. Going to the therapist kind of helped me with that.

I love my family and I miss them very much but I'm a new person now. I know a lot of people will not agree with what I've done, but it was right for me.

I can count the number of dates I've had on one hand. I wish that guys would approach me, but they don't.

For so long, I was controlled and manipulated by other people. Whatever people think of me, I'm finally doing what I want to do.

It is so difficult in the world for people to find love, true love.

I can't say it's not painful being estranged from most of my family. I wish it could be otherwise.

Our marriage is strictly in name only. It has never been consummated.
