Gosh I cant even believe I am writing this here goes...
I am 31yr old mother of two gorgeous babies, getting married in 8 weeks. Life couldnt really be much better.
My mum calls me today (very bad relationship with her, shes an alcoholic and has nothing but caused me and my siblings harm). She is ringing me to say that the police have contacted her regarding her ex of 15 years ago, Pete. Pete sexually abused me for around 4 years (8yr-12yr) whilst my mum was with him, started off quite mild but turned serious. It was stopped when he was arrested as he had done it to another girl and she had spoke out. The police picked me up from school I was interviewed and told them everything. He was put away and in them first few weeks, whilst he was awaiting a charge/sentencing whatever he tried to commit suicide. To cut a long story short my mum said I should lie to the police and tell them i made it up. The reason she told me at the time was that his 3 children had lost their mum (to cancer 2 years previous) and how dreadful it would be to loose their dad too. So I lied and told them I was lying. Unfortuately that wasnt the end my mum then proceeded to take him back. At the time I thought she hadnt believed me, now I know she did she just didnt care. I went to live with my dad then and everything for me got alot better. My dad brought me up so well, i had a good childhood, was given morals, education went to university and I am the person I am due to him. I was 12 when i was placed with him. My mum eventually left Pete because he beat her one day.
The police want to interview her and have asked for my details, she rang me to ask if she can give them to him. I instantly said yes and its noones but our fault that this has now happened. I meant hers.
I want to do this, but the timing couldnt be worse. I am not this mans victim and never have been but in my weaker red wine moments I do get upset that he got away with it. Im shaking and teary now writing this, my dp isnt here and I dont think im ready to ring my dad.
