i have never told anyone this before , im now a middle aged woman with a family of my own and have these horrible memories of hearing my parents having sex really loudly its something that i feel horrified at to think they knew i was only in the next room as a small child ( about 8 the first time i heard ) i was very frightened the first time i heard them i thought there was murder going on !! my mother ran in when she heard me crying and tried to comfort me , this happened a few more times and i eventually just ignored them , they did get quieter , they were good parents in every other way , but as ive got my own family ive made sure my children would never hear me this way and think it was vile of them to do this , they are now in their 70s and have never mentioned it to them , but feel like telling them how vile it was for me , its 40 years since this and i cant believe i still feel so burdened by this , feel better for just typing this and getting it off my chest !!! will i ever forget this ?
