"I have just watched a movie and realised a strange thing. What happened with Max was brought up a few times this week. The first time was by me after I cleaned my room and discarded the letters I wrote. I told everyone that I tore them up and threw them away. The second time was when Mom brought it up after I complained about Dad smelling like smoke. And, then Rose brought it up sometime later. Anyway, my point was that in this movie I watched this 19 year old girl who falls in love with a 37 year old guy. She tells him she wants to have sex and it's her first time. He tells her he respects her too much and that it's the right thing to do. Max was the older than me and should have known better. Although, being young is no excuse for my stupid behaviour. I will eventually learn to accept what happened and be okay with it. Until then I just need everyone to be a little more gentle. I was young and silly and Max was young older and just wrong. He was, however, sick. But that also doesn't make it okay. Just a little more understandable."
