and when youve been abused by someone like this, its not a case of just not dwelling on it. if it were that easy everyone would have a much better time moving on. saying things like "Then it sounds like that's their problem for choosing to dwell on the past." very much implies that they just need to get over it. it's like telling someone with depression to just be happy. it doesn't work like that, it never has worked like that, and it never will work like that. It doesn't imply anything, it is exactly as it sounds.

And you continue to act like I'm only talking to the victims.

the point is that you're talking *to* the victims as well. That they are a victim or not is irrelevant, that is my point.
