In my original post, it said that dbf was physically abused. That news would have been more easy to accept, being that I'm a survivor myself. He in fact was sexually abused. Have no clue how do even deal with it. I posted on the sexual abuse board looking for some help, and I know he needs therapy, but need some options to help him when he wakes in a cold sweat, or things don't "quite work out" when we're alone. Don't get me wrong, I'm very supportive, and understanding, however, I don't know how to make him feel better or get out of that place where he's at. Thanks for re-reading.

PS--I may start to use another handle...chocolatelablover. Created it, because found out my sister has been using my parent's computer after me...long story. Just an FYI!

In the meantime, know that you being support is the BEST thing for him and you. What a wonderful woman you are! It takes someone with a strong heart and some beauty inside to stick it out when hearing something like this.
There are a lot...lot of shallow people in the world and you are NOT one of them. I knew I liked you. What a beautiful human! You a) care about this guy and b) are so great to come to your friends to try and figure out how to help.
I am about to be late for work....yikes. I just did not want to not post.
Sending hugs and good thoughts your way.
Take care,
