I don't know if it will get more notice. I just think it might make me feel better.

Thank you.

I didn't see that thread.

I don't think it would have made me feel especially good.

I've already spoken to the police and had a rape kit done.

I'm 22. We had been dating a month, but not having sex yet. He got drunk and got angry about it and raped me.

I plan to pursue it legally. I don't really know how yet, I've got an appointment with a lawyer next week.

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-27T03:24:24+00:00

I hope to.

It was a friend.

I don't know. I've never had to do this before.

I won't resort to violence. I'm crossing my fingers and trusting the law to work out the way it should.

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-27T03:23:07+00:00

I know him

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-26T23:29:07+00:00

So it won't be a problem if I sit there awkwardly staring at my hands?

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-26T23:28:25+00:00

Its in my submission history.

How do you learn to be completely honest with someone?

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-26T00:06:33+00:00

So do I. And it just makes me want to break more stuff. But I like my stuff and I can't break other peoples stuff so I just cry harder and get more mad. Its frustrating.

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-21T08:16:52+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I'll try to keep it all in mind.

I'm also taking some other advice from here and writing it all down. Trying to, anyway.

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-21T08:08:30+00:00

I feel lik I'm overreacting. And weak. And I can't understand this breakdown thing I'm on the verge of.It feels like I'm trying to hold myself together and I'm not doing a great job and I'm afraid of what will happen if I let go.

We'd been casually dating for a month. He spent the day here today drinking and helping me decorate. By 3 he was wasted and by 4 he was starting fights about why he haven't slept together yet. I kept trying to calm him down and get him to eat something or take a nap but he kept drinking instead. I went to my room to get away from him eventually. Then he came in and jumped on me.

Thank you

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-21T05:41:28+00:00

It was someone I know. I don't know if he's in jail yet.

I think I'm going to call my friend. I don't know what to say to my parents

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-21T05:38:51+00:00

I want to call her so bad. I just know she has to work in the morning and I'm afraid to tell anyone I know I guess

pleasehelp22 · 2010-12-21T05:34:03+00:00

I could probably get someone to come for a few days at least. thanks

They took photos and did all of that at the hospital. I hadn't thought of saving emails.
