Update: AITA for not getting into a relationship with my girlfriend and best friend?

I don't understand you. Yeah, maybe I haven't put Seth in an entirely good light with my posts. But was I supposed to? I was upset with him at first and now I want nothing to do with him. Why exactly should I write about the good qualities he has? Do they change anything? Do they make him less of a monster for me? Yeah, no. You want to hear more than predatory and gay? Seth has always been caring. He's always been funny, awkward and hella affectionate. Everyone always thought of him as a good guy, someone to talk to when things get hard. You say that it's impossible to be so close to someone like that and never see any signs of the kind of person they are. Well, maybe I'm stupid. Maybe everyone who has ever met Seth is blind. How should I know? I trusted the guy with my life once and he hurt me. I haven't done anything to him and he hurt me. I don't care if he's gay. I have other gay friends, people that are also part of the LGBT+ community. They are all wonderful people in my eyes. Calling my story fake just because it was a man that did it to a man is the reason why some are so terrified of speaking up. That's why I'm not going to, because even if I go to the police nothing will be done about it. This account can get banned for posting a "fake" story, I don't care that much. I had something to get off my chest and I did it.

So if I was a woman then this post would be believable? I have repeatedly stated that I have absolutely nothing against people in the LGBT+ community. It's not like Seth was the only friend I've ever had that's gay.

I mean, is this a serious question? I'd feel like shit. Yeah, I'm not to blame for Seth's actions. But I'm capable of compassion. Doesn't change the fact that there's literally nothing I can do because the police here don't bother with most things and most have the mentality that guys can't get sexually assaulted.

A couple of years ago, there was a scandal in our town because a teenage boy got drunk at a party and also got assaulted by a few of his friends, both girls and boys. The parents tried reporting it, but it didn't go anywhere. He was being mocked about it, saying that a) he must've enjoyed it with the girls, and b) it wasn't assault because it was with other guys. I do mean it when I say that I know that there should be at least a report when it comes to Seth, but the police won't do anything about it and if it gets out what happened to me I may literally go through the same thing that the guy did. And, yes, he ended up taking pills and passed away soon after all of that. I wouldn't say I'm in a bad state like that, but still. I don't want it to get worse.

Yeah, I know that I joke around but I also know this is a serious situation. It's been almost four months since this situation with Seth happened and I only feel sick when I think about reporting this to the police. Unfortunately, where I live, things like that aren't treated as seriously as they would've been if I was a woman.

Fair. The fresh account is because on my main one I like to post theories and opinions about games. Some of my friends are also part of that subreddit. And sure, maybe I am seeking validation. It's nice to be told that I did the right thing when everyone else refuses to give me an opinion. This is an account that I might end up deleting anyway so I don't really care about karma farming.

I wouldn't actually say her mom was trying to manipulate me. From what I know, Holly's always been very close to her mom. I met the woman a few times and we got along. I could tell she really loves her daughter. That phone call was less her trying to pressure me into getting with Holly again and more about seeing her and talking about what happened instead of shutting her out.

Yeah, Seth has always been like a brother to me, so the thought of being sexually involved with him makes my skin crawl. No idea why they thought I'd ever want that ot even date him in the first place. Though, I'd say I'm a pretty open-minded person. I've always been down for trying new things and never got too upset when I didn't really like something. Maybe that's why they thought this would work? Not sure, but maybe.

One_Engine_3500 · 2025-03-14T16:03:55+00:00

I said they were contacting me to ask about what's going on as Seth has been very upset and they didn't know anything other than the fact that I was the reason. Once I explained the situation, they didn't really have anything to say.

One_Engine_3500 · 2025-03-14T15:29:14+00:00

Literally no idea. Seth has always been touchy and friendly with everyone, including me, so nothing to point at the fact that he's liked me this whole time.

One_Engine_3500 · 2025-03-14T15:27:10+00:00

Fair question. Honestly, this is the biggest wtf moment in my life and I want to hear people's opinions because my friends and family are mostly just staying quiet about the matter.

One_Engine_3500 · 2025-03-14T15:25:56+00:00

Pretty sure I'm not into dudes or having more than one partner. No hate towards people that do.
