Trauma victims deserve love that is selfless, respectful, and healthy. Objectified and abused women face a wide range of symptoms related to trauma.
Trauma Victims Deserve Love In Intimate Relationships
Victims who have been hurt by abuse may start to doubt what love really means or if they are worthy of true love. It’s important for them to set boundaries. Here are some positive beliefs they can adopt:
- I choose partners who respect my boundaries.
- My partner listens to my needs.
- I deserve someone who make me feel safe and happy.
Trauma Victims Deserve To Be Loved In Safe Friendships
Many victims of betrayal and hurt often feel lonely. They might have shared their stories with friends and family. They need support, but sometimes those people don’t believe them or fail to listen. This can make the victims feel even more isolated and sad.

Having friends who truly understand their pain helps them feel less alone and more supported as they work through their experiences.

Trauma Victims Deserve To Love Themselves
In abusive situations, victims often struggle to love themselves. This is because abusers usually make their victims pay attention only to them and their needs. As a result, it becomes really hard for victims to take care of themselves and think about what they want or need.
They might feel sad or unworthy, which makes it even harder. However, it is important to remember that everyone, including victims, deserves a chance to learn how to love themselves. Loving yourself means believing you are special and valuable, and it’s a big step toward healing and happiness. With support and time, victims can find ways to care for themselves and start to love who they are again. Here are some steps to get started:
- Set boundaries to focus on your needs.
- Eat well, drink enough water, and rest.
- Seek support from trustworthy people.
- Spend time on activities you enjoy.

I am lost. My husband had several affairs, and based on his behavior I shut down in all aspects of my life with him. I just ran on a treadmill trying to keep him happy, but I was never successful.
I lost my voice, and experienced ongoing anxiety and distress. I tried to find a Counsellor to help me to no avail! Now my husband has passed, very suddenly, and I am left with so many questions. Why did I shut down, not ask questions and why not expect more for myself?
