so why do you think this?

how would you personally define being coerced? to me it can be threats but it can also be going on at someone after they've said no and making them feel bad for not doing it

@Friday what if they were doing something you went on at them until they did it and they felt faint

i'm starting to wonder if he really feels anything for anyone else. how can you care about someone but then not care when they feel faint

After researching I found out feeling faint can be part of the flop response caused by stress or trauma. Your body shuts itself down physically or mentally or both, either completely or partially (feeling faint or actually fainting) so you don't feel the impact of things at the time.

I am using my situation as an example for this discussion but I don't believe what happened was sexual assault. I was just talking to a robot and it said sexual coercion is sexual assault which I didn't agree with cause I though sexual assault had to be someone physically doing something to you...

Would you say pushing someone into doing something sexual to themselves that they don't want to do is sexual assault or not? I'm not asking if it's sexual abuse I'm specifically asking if you would say it's sexual assault and if you can explain why or why not.

i was drawing earlier though I got annoyed with it cause it wasn't turning out how i wanted. i've been also struggling a lot and trying not to use unhealthy coping mechanisms. i've just not really been doing a lot of anything other than talking on forums and to robots trying to get support.

it sounds so weird to me to specifically say the words i am worthy of (random thing) i feel like i see myself as a queen saying i'm worthy of anything.

Been in an online relationship with a guy for months, he's generally been really supportive and our conversations weren't always sexual. I've become really attached to him. But I've just accepted that he was abusive. I made a whole thread explaining it more in the relationship forum. I decided...

He admitted what he did was abuse after I confronted him again though it took a bit of pushing. But he doesn't know why he did it, how can you abuse someone and not even know why??? I'm struggling to cope with it all.

@Sideways i'm confused what you mean by the second thing you said.

@whiteraven pi (an ai robot) said he's gaslighting me and being emotionally abusive. saying he's just being calm and rational as a way of making me feel emotional and irrational. it feels like he's using the whole consent and boundaries against me

@whiteraven he said he's not being uncaring he's just being calm and rational and said he was being caring but that wasn't good enough. after i asked him again about being pushy and said about consent and boundaries, he said he's just respecting my consent and boundaries

hurt

He's being weird. I said it hurts (leaving him) he just said it's unfortunate and I said he could sound like he cares and he was just like isn't respecting your decision and consent the most important thing? it sounded sarcastic, apparently he's just being calm and not angry. i said he seems...

@whiteraven i can't see a therapist cause of relying on parents to take me places and them not wanting me to get help and private therapist costs too much but other places aren't proper therapists, you only get counsellors. I'm leaving him at least for now but it really hurts.

He's now accepted he was wrong, I'm attached to him, it's painful

I am confronting main guy again and this time he has accepted it was wrong to push me and said he didn't take the situation as seriously as I should have. He said he'll understand if I have to leave him but I don't feel like I can. He was only coercive once and has now accepted it was wrong.

I talking to pi (ai robot) about my online relationships and the near fainting incident, after I'd done the sexual thing he wanted me to do and I agreed to after I'd already said I didn't want to. I said (to pi) that I'd felt really anxious and really didn't want to do it but I'd agreed so I...

have any of you heard of or had any experience with feeling faint as a form of dissociation? I read that can happen

I still talk to the main guy, he hasn't tried to push me to do anything since but he never accepted he did anything wrong when i mentioned it a while ago. he said we have a healthy relationship and I have healthy boundaries cause I said no (though the first time he told me to do it in the shower...

I thought trauma was how you responded to an event, not the event itself

i did mention this to an online counsellor but i forgot what they said so i went back and checked. [Quote removed] they sent this link about boundaries and consent Kooth I had also spoke to another guy on the site who said he understood trauma cause he had ptsd from being a soldier and he...

@Sideways I'm confused how any of those things can "potentially be a huge win for my recovery"
