My girlfriend and I loved each other, we were planning to get married, but she died in a car accident. I still feel her presence, and I talk to her every night before I sleep. I can't move on, and I don't know if I ever will.

My dad has been abusive to me my entire life, ever since I was born.. physically.. mentally.. verbally.. emotionally.. and sexually.... I would call cops begging for them but my dad would find me and tell the cops I was just a little kid being dramatic..... he cracked my skull open that day and told my mom to leave me on the floor to die... and she listened... because she doesn't even want me either because I was the mistake child.... CPS is a joke and they don't help... my dad tried to kill me time and time again but never succeeded.... I just regret never getting out of that house as soon as I could to stop the abuse.... but for 19 years.... now making me afraid of any physical contact with anyone and being cold hearted to protect myself from things.... I regret not leaving as fast as possible...
