quotes

“You know, he was charming in the beginning. He really was. All the things he was saying, it was charming. He was moving really fast. I let him in so early because I wanted it so bad.” - Alona

“I’m depressed. I'm lonely and this man is cheating on me. I had no one to talk to because everybody was angry that I wasn't listening to them. I was embarrassed because they, they all warned me and they were right.” - Alona

“I prayed and prayed to get out of this situation, but I didn't know how because he would find me. He knew where my house, you know, if I went back to my house, he knew where I lived. If I go to my mom's house, he knew where she lived.” - Alona

“You can't explain it. All you know is that you were caught in this web and you were lured in and you were like preyed on. One day was too long. Three years was way too long. Don't feel embarrassed. Talk to somebody, get empowered. You're not alone.” - Alona
