 Here is what I learned. You should make sure that you have some kind of support, from a friend, pastor, councelor etc. Write down what you want to say and review this until you are confident. Keep in mind that you may not be able to get closure with this. Decide now what your risks vs benifit will be and also decide what it is you want to accomplish. Be prepared for rejection. The person may suprise you and acknoledge you but  most likely, I am guessing that will not be the case. Have a plan about how you will deal with the outcome of this. Do not vent this information during a disagreement. It did not take much to provoke my abuser. All I did was state the situation and ask "why". Things did not go well for me. It took years to work through it all. Blessings and I wish you all the best.
