About The Incident

A bunch of people have asked kind notes to see if I’m okay. It’s much appreciated, I’m fine. I am still having little adrenaline moments and I can’t stop thinking about the girl and what could have happened, so many things could have gone badly.  But I’m fine, and your kind thoughts are appreciated. I hope the girl is doing okay, I hope the abuser is suffering some consequences. I have not heard back from the complex’ security, the girl, or the police.

I’ve told my son to keep an eye out, in case that guy comes looking for him, as they both live in the complex where it happened. My son can handle himself, I just want him to be careful for a while.

Finally, a bunch of people wrote really moving stories about abusive situations they had endured. My heart goes out to you all. I wish there was something I could offer other than just my love and best wishes. I am glad you survived, you deserve better, and I hope you never forget that. 

Best wishes to everyone. If you know someone’s been in an abusive situation, please try to be there for them, be their friend, believe their stories, offer support where you can. I have been hearing story after story (via dm) from people in bad situations where one person made a huge difference. Please be that person if you can.  Be safe, stay aware, but try to help if you can…a lot of people need it at some point in their lives. 

Thank you all.
