Jacquie & Shattered thank you for opening my eyes to the possibility that I may have misunderstood his actions. Logically and rationally everything you said makes perfect sense. But my heart still feels something is awry. I can't for the life of me understand why he has been so supportive about...

Deaf Global Nomad, Anna thank you for reaching out to me. I started a thread in the Discussions forum about this (Titled: Confused, is my mind distorting reality?) that has MUCH more info regarding this situation, as well as more of my thought processes and experiences involving this if you...

Ron thank you for your encouragement. How very kind and thoughtful of you. I'm so humiliated by what didn't happen, I haven't seen him since this happened or rather didn't happen... I've come up with excuses not to see him. I am disappointed in myself and humiliated. Nice to meet you too. Thank...

Visiting: It is much easier to be the victim, really. Because as you know, to no longer be a victim, means work... it means pain... it means facing our worst fears and reliving our own trauma... And it wasn't until he and I became much closer that it made me realize that I don't want to be the...

Visiting: He was initially adamantly angry when I first told him about the rape. He was upset, breathing hard, and the look on his face was pure pain. Empathetic pain. Then it was like a switch, he immediately went into attack mode, or the police mode he's trained to be in - not at me, but...

Visiting: Thank you for reaching out to me. I am surprised and touched by the fact you signed up to respond. Thank you. You have definitely given me a lot to think about. Thank you for opening me up to his point of view instead of mine alone. Maybe he knows my healing will take a long time...

PS: I guess it boils down to the fact it feels like he's passing me off to someone else because he doesn't want to deal with it. That hurts. But yet he's above and beyond supportive in EVERY other aspect of my life! I am confused and extremely anxious of the thought of talking to a stranger. I...

Thank you again for your support. You provide such comfort to me. He was the first person I had ever confided in. I couldn't understand why he would offer somebody else's help but not his own. But I understand more through your explanation. It hasn't come up again since I told him. He hasn't...

Also Jacquie what did you mean when you said he knows stuff I don't know yet? I look forward to your response. I appreciate you.

Jacquie thank you for your prompt reply and attention. I appreciate your reaching out to me more than you know. I was not mean or ugly to him, but my heart was disappointed that he would seemingly rather pass me on to a stranger. I reached out to him because I wanted his help. He begged me to...

I was brutally raped 11 years ago to the point I had to "play dead" in order to escape. I was young, 20, and afraid and didn't report it, never got help, just tried to put it out of my mind. Little did I realize the YEARS of suffering I would endure internally and externally, had I known, I...
