I’m picturing you going on a first date and just casually asking something like “So, childhood abuse yes or no?”

Often times, you don’t need to ask. You can just tell.

Like another comment said, sometimes you can just sense it, but often enough they will just tell me. I have heard so many stories, frequently about sexual assault by a family member, from someone I had just met or barely knew.

I have a similar thing. People just open up to me, but my parents aren’t abusive. The worst punishment they gave us was to write a research paper on why what we had done was wrong.
