Abuse affecting new relationships-trigger warning!

[Notaboutthebass]

Hi all, just asking for personal experiences. If you've been physically abused as a child, how has it affected you starting a new relationship (or any relationship), or have you been the other party? How has it impacted how you've been treated in a relationship? With/without therapy.

I don't know, but I think people might be wary of giving personal info without knowing why you're asking. Is this an issue for you?

Sorry, it's nothing other than being in that situation myself and trying to understand it. I don't want a complicated post, just wanted to ask a straight forward question.

Thanks.

Anyone?
