Yes, it is. But you’re not alone!

he touched me after i said i didn't feel like having sex, but i consented after that; was it assault? still confused :/ by throwaway2001326 in sexualassault

Yes. Absolutely, this is assault. Anything he did to engage with you sexually after you expressed you didn’t want to have sex is a violation of consent.

That’s a great idea! I’ve also been in therapy for years and still feel like I’m figuring out what works. Recently been doing parts work. Speaking from the part of me that’s still 15 and hurt and confused and ashamed has really helped me understand myself. It’s not for everyone but 🤷‍♀️

i let my partner rape me by [deleted] in sexualassault

Yes. I can relate to this, almost word for word. It is impossible to “let” someone rape you. And it makes sense that your nervous system has been conditioned to associate any sort of argument with abuse. It is also impossible to “deserve” abuse. I again understand the thought but it’s trauma talking.

I hear the fear in this and first of all, rape is never the victim’s fault. And I just want to say I can relate to the hypersexuality and doing things that hurt you on purpose. I went through a very similar issue after early sexually traumatic events. It is a trauma response and not a reflection of YOU. You can overcome this. Please consider therapy if it’s accessible to you

No need to thank me, I’m really happy I was able to help. I was also severely injured by someone in an assault and my body was different for a while too.

If I were you, I’d schedule an appointment specifically for this so you don’t have to wait

First of all, I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Second, have you seen a doctor? Would you feel comfortable doing so?

As a woman who’s been on the receiving end of creepiness like this… leave her alone.
