Sorry My Fault - Tumblr Posts

Blamed for my bruises

Every time he left a mark he became distraught. I would have to invest so much energy into consoling him - telling him it would be alright, I'd wear a turtleneck. No one would know.

He told me that he made calculated decisions about how hard to throw, squeeze, or hit and I was just too fragile.

Marks just showed up on my skin far too easy.

So not only did he calculate an acceptable amount of violence, I was reprimanded for my skin not adhering to these standards.
