In a relationship like you described it takes a very special dominant to take on the responsibility of protecting someone when they have made them so vulnerable to others like that. And I have met very few that do the job right.

I am sorry for the pain you have experienced as well as the emotional hurt you still have to carry. You are doing exactly what you need to be doing. Moving on and moving forward in your journey as you learn more about what your needs are.
Please don't apologize at all Jadetiger and to be very honest, it is nice to feel bared claws...I am not really sure if this is a double-entendre or not but it sounds wickedly delicious.
