Am I the only guy here?


Hi,


I hope I'm not intruding. I only see women's names on the site. If this site is for women only, please tell me and I'll go away.


My name is Steve, I'm 42 years old and I'm a man.  I was abused by daycare providers when I was 4, 5, and 6 years old. Also had a physically and mentally abusive mother who made me the cause of all evil in her life. 


I'm just trying to connect with anyone who can relate to what I've been through in my life. I hope to make some connections with other humans. I've never had any real friends, so I hope this is a starting point.


If it matters to anyone, I live near Washington, D.C.


I do want to say that I think all of you are incredibly brave to come to this site and tell your stories. I've been in therapy for three years and I still haven't told my therapist everything. I just have a hard time verbalizing it.


Anyway, thank you for your time. I hope to meet some of you online soon.



Kind Regards,


Steve

Hi Steve


It's good to see you here.  You've taken a brave step too.  It isn't an easy thing to do to post though it doesn get easier with practice!  


No, you're not the only male and it isn't 'women only' either though i guess more women access it.  i hope other men will come out of the woodwork and introduce themselves.  


I'm 44 and was sexually and emotionally abused as a child/teenager.  I live in the uk.


I hope we see you around again and that you find the support and friendship that you are seeking. 


I wish you well on your journey.
