Once, a long time ago, I was involved with someone. He was a horrible person and he was very violent with me.

This happened because I was young and I had no idea what was going on. It lasted only a month.

Now, every time I meet someone whom I haven't seen since that time, I just know that they are thinking to themselves that my husband must also be a horrible person, just because I'm involved with him.

I feel extremely guilty about this.
