What the crap?
Last night, I found out the most disturbing thing. One of my exes was charged for raping a child. I dated him back when I was 22-23, and haven't talked to him since due to the fact that he had been charged with having a relationship with a 13 year old PRIOR to our relationship and I was told that if I continued the relationship with him, I would lose Trystan. Anyway, I got a message on Facebook last night from his fiancee/ex fiancee, telling me that he had been arrested and put back in jail. For raping a child. And apparently, the cops also found child porn on her laptop.
I am beyond shocked. I mean, I knew about his previous charges. But I was also convinced at the time of us dating that he wasn't that sick in the head. That he had just made a mistake in the past, and there was nothing wrong with him. Despite the fact that Doug repeatedly told me he didn't want this guy around Trystan, and that he would kill him if he ever went near him again.
The scariest thing about it, is that when we dated, I allowed him to care for Trystan sometimes. Trystan was a year and a half when we dated. What if it had been MY son he did something to? He wouldn't be able to tell me, because he was so young and couldn't talk. All these "what if's" keep going through my head. How could I let someone like that into my life? How could I be so oblivious and blind? HOW could I believe he wasn't a bad person, and stand up for him despite what people said about him?
I feel like a horrible parent. I mean, of course I got away from the guy and haven't seen him since. But the point is, why didn't I listen?
Anyway, it's creepy. I honestly didn't see this coming. And as much as I cared for him, I can honestly say that if he's that kind of guy to have certain "feelings" for little kids, I hope he rots in his cell until he's too crippled to move. I'm sickened by this.
Utterly disgusted.
