The day before, he was telling me that he wanted to take me to North Dakota and meet his mom and family, at that point, I was trying to earn his trust and make him believe that I did n’t want to leave his side. I would tell him that I wanted to show him all the places I grew up in, where I went to school because I loved school, where I used to hang out, basically show him my life because I had no family. That made him feel good because he felt that I trusted him. He felt that he was learning about my life and getting to know a vulnerable part of me. I was just trying to manipulate him.
