On the Road- Awsten Knight Waterparks

Authors Note

I feel like I can just get stuff of my chest in this book don't @ me...

I just completely shut down my ex.

Long story short, he was 2 years older and would always pressure me into sending nudes and sexting him. After about 6 months, I broke it off and completely cut him out of my life.

Today he started messaging me on my new Twitter account. I just ignored him at first but then he sent me a message asking if I was "still naughty?"

To which I simply replied no.

Then he told me that was a "shame" so then I straight up bossed him when I said:

"Actually no it's not. I'm so much happier as a person. I've grown to understand my sexuality, identity and mind and none of those are compatible with you."

I'm actually so proud of myself for this because he's a man that sexually oppressed me and made me feel small, insecure and dirty.

I've learnt so much about myself to know that the way he treated me was unacceptable and abusive. At the time I was really low and hated myself therefore I attracted bad people that fed off my misery.

Now I've realised that's not how relationships should be, not for me anyway.

So yeah, I'm super proud of overcoming these abusive males. But thankfully they've given me insight that I use to develop Isla's story that can hopefully show people that these manipulative and abusive attitudes aren't okay and it's okay to say no.

I also just told my best friends about the time I was molested by this guy last year and it's the first time I've told anybody. This book is helping me solve so many things for myself and I never thought it would.

My body. My rules.
