When I was 7 my step-dad began to sexually abuse me. I just found out that he told my mother when he started, but because she couldn't take care of herself, she didn't do anything about it. She didn't want to lose him even though he was abusing her only daughter and he was always high.

When she was asleep he would come into my room and fondle himself and me, and after he was done he would go and f*** my mom. He would make me feel like I was nothing but crap. However, he would always try to make me feel good while he was abusing me.

After wards, I would cry because I knew from his talking to me that I would never find a guy that would like me for me. He tore my self-esteem apart and he would keep tearing it apart until I would quit trying to re-build it. But he is in jail until October of 2012
