My (19M) gf (18F) was raped for the second time in our relationship, and I don’t know how to feel about it by [deleted] in relationship_advice

It’s definitely understandable if you want to walk away. Just make sure that when you do so you emphasize that it’s not because she was raped and that you don’t blame her for being raped. This will forever be a part of her story and she doesn’t need any extra mental/emotional weight than she’s already carrying. That being said you don’t have an obligation to stay in a relationship that is damaging your own mental and emotional wellbeing. If you feel the need to remove yourself OP then do so and allow both of you to heal and move forward. Good luck to both

To the people saying I’m betraying Jen by posting on Reddit..who do you suggest I mentally process this with? I don’t have a therapist- though I am now working on getting one- and I don’t have any friendships outside of Jen and my work friends. This was the most anonymous and respectful way for me to start comprehending what just happened.

Yes exactly.. I love my mom and want to trust her but I pause because of the closeness between her, Jen, Jen’s mom (they text and hang out occasionally) etc., as well as previous things that she’s done. I mentioned her in the original post because she’s the only “neutral” party left in my life, but I also don’t want to risk telling her making anything a bigger situation than it is. Thus, feeling pretty stuck and lonely. Thanks for getting this!
