00:00My b**** started when I was 13 years old. I had started a cheerleading group that my friend had
00:04gone to. The head coach, who was my b****, decided that she was going to ask me if I wanted
00:10to help
00:10coach the little ones. So I would come into sessions earlier, leave later. And I think this
00:15was a crucial stage of kind of gaining the trust and seeing how far she could get me alone before
00:21any actual b**** started. It turned into like going out for food to discuss the routines,
00:25going to extra competitions over the weekends. And then that very quickly turned into her dropping
00:30me off after cheer back home. And I'm guessing that's also where she kind of gained the trust
00:35of my parents as well, because they knew that she was outside the house. I was in the car,
00:39they could see everything. And she was always like buying me presents, taking me out places,
00:43buying me clothes, like anything to kind of just keep me on side and keep me kind of interested.
00:48Then she got more controlling of everything I did in life, like what friends I could have.
00:52I obviously wasn't allowed boyfriends. She didn't want me to have any relationship with
00:57my family. So she distanced me massively from them.
