“How to help my fiancé who was sexually abused as a child?”
My fiancé was violently sexually abused as a child. He feels “weak”- because he feels like that’s why they picked him, and he wasn’t able to fend him off. That mechanism that’s often so present in abuse victims. Any advice on what to say to him?

He needs support and reassurance, also a therapist for PTSD.
