Sex, With A Man, For Me Was Disgusting

For this I will add that I married for the visa, to a man I hardly new. Becoming a wife under those circumstances is anything but easy. Sex was horrible, I don't have any other word for it. I had no experience, no first hand knowledge. It was frightening, disgusting, I vomited afterwards. I suffered, and that is the word. I had one child and after I had all my papers I asked him to let me free.

My five years with him was a prison sentence. I was too young, too innocent, to realize that I would find the kind of love I wanted with another woman. But that's another story, for another time.
