During this process of facing some really hard emotions about what happened to me I am afraid that my boyfriend will get overwhelmed and leave me. I have had a lot of friends back out of being supportive during this time because they said they had "reached their limits" with me.

I cant blame them for feeling like trying to support me is too much even though I wish it was the opposite. It is difficult for me to trust anyone during this time so trusting my boyfriend not to run into someone else's arms because he has reached his limits too is a concern. I know what it is like to be with someone during a difficult time and feel neglected because the main focus is their recovery. Yes, it is selfish and all I can seem to hope for right now is that I am worth it.
