“I was able to say goodbye to him last year, at the age of 66,” says Bubbi Morthens of one of the Bubbs whose photo is drawn in the 9líf exhibition. Bob is in a long weekend interview at The center and there he recounts when he met the man who abused him and settled things with him:
“It wasn’t until I met the man who assaulted me. I got him to come, which was wonderful. I contacted him and said, would you be willing to see me at the trauma and addiction therapist I see and we’ll just try to work this out. I don’t mind living life differently anymore, but at least I tried that. The person showed up, of course tried something, you understand, of course, we are human beings. But things went so well that he confessed everything. And sincerely apologized in his own way. And I shook his hand and I just thanked him for coming. I thanked him for showing such audacity and courage. Only one percent of the perpetrators admit to the crime.”
In the text The center the interview says, among other things:
“In the interview, Bubba talks about the different Bubbas on the show, the different Bubbas he’s been.” Poor child Bubi, illiterate and insulted. Bubbi with an acoustic guitar finally getting some recognition in a school in Denmark, cocaine-Bubbi, bubble-Bubbi and all the Bubbis in him.
Bubbi talks about his people, the neighborhood, his upbringing, but he also talks about Bubba, a liberal who cannot tolerate the injustice in society and the addiction to greed who has owned the few families who actually own the Iceland.”
Describes porn addiction
Bubbi describes the relief he felt when he let go of all his secrets during conversations with an addiction specialist, putting everything on the table, even the most intimate secrets. “Since I was abused, I had no intimacy. I could sleep with a lot of women, but if there was going to be intimacy, I either couldn’t stand it, or I stopped. fled,” he says. He further says:
“Then I was in contact with porn on the computer a lot.” He says he confessed to the therapist that he had more contact with the porn on his computer than with any of the women he had had close relationships with. The therapist said, “Don’t worry, I’ll break it all down for you.” Bubbi says it worked, but for it to happen it took courage to get all on the table and face your failures. .
