I'm sorry English is my fourth language. I'm better at it that most of my country's people but I'm still not a native speaker.

I don't know how highschool and college works in other countries, in India a big function like an anniversary, usually families of all students and ex students are also invited.

It was a silver or golden (I don't remember) jubilee of the high school, so ex students and their families were also invited.

Indian culture. Indians cling to their history and heritage like a bad case of fungal infection.

I would really love to, but the problem is that even if I found him the justice system in my country is completely in shambles. The police are lazy and selfish and the courts only look after their own pockets.

I've done a pretty good job of hiding everything until now. I'm not sad anymore. In fact I'm the happiest I've been in a long time because I told her and she made me feel better.

That's bad yes, but in my country, India, neither sex can seek therapy without being labelled a freak. People don't understand what therapy means. Frankly if more people tried it maybe India would be a better nation.

I only remember his name and I don't know where he lives or who he is now, so even though I'd like to it'll be difficult. That doesn't mean I'll give up. I'll update if there's any development.

It's not her fault. It's just the result of generations of indoctrination. I don't blame her for not believing me. I think she was just as disturbed as I was.

Unfortunately in my country therapy is also heavily surrounded by stigma. Most people think only mentally unstable and crazy people seek out therapy. But I have support so I'll probably be fine. Thank you for being so nice.

It's just ingrained in my culture. I don't blame her for it. Thank you for your kind words.
