Idk what's worse. A predator or An Abusive Parent...
hmmmm... on one hand, if the predator is luring you by your pain points, in a way it's healing your abusive parents works. Now the question is, what is it about you that they want to predate? Is it something you may never value or care about or have in abundance that it wouldn't matter? Or is it something scarce, deeply intimate, or has yet to be developed? If it's the former, a predator is most likely a better case scenario than the abusive parent. Unfortunately, nobody can hurt you like your parents can—the only people in this world that are supposed to love you also have access to your deepest vulnerabilities and development.
I've also noticed that the hurt we linger on caused by those unrelated to us (classmates, work, randoms etc.) tend to be the types of hurt that were connected to our parents. The type of hurt unrelated to our parents are often healed or dealt with in a shorter time frame and with less intensity. If not, then that just means the hurt came from a deeply vulnerable spot—which goes back to my point about parents being the ones who can hurt us the most.
