Watch You Cry's Story of Abuse
I felt like someone's opinions and ideas were being forced on me. They weren't all bad, but they were... well, not mine and I felt this fear of going against them. They were arrogant and knew everything. All of a sudden I am this smart great person, but what they're really telling me is that I won't ever really be anything unless I do what they say exactly the way they want it. I was degraded, patronized, and belittled all without really knowing it.
How Watch You Cry Found Out They Were Being Abused
He kept saying he was "transparent" but in the end I realized I was in the dark and that he knew everything about my business and then, I asked myself "Why? Why does this person need to know so much about me and needs to make themselves so much a part of what I do when I've not asked?" That was the first awakening. If I had questions, then I was offending him as he been "Transparent". Then he would say things like "I challenge you to ask me questions!"
