Its personal trauma so if you dont want to read it dont

Because it was an close friend I didnt deffend myself , I couldnt believe what was happening so I stayed still after saying I didnt want it over 5 times , I always hear others defend themselfs and I feel so bad I couldnt , even the doctor when I got examined to see if Any damage was done asked me why I didnt defend myself. I feel like Its partly my fault still , like I should have gotten my justice but I didnt , Although my therapist said it wasnt and tried hard to make me see that , Im still online friends with him as hes step dad died and I felt bad about blocking him all together , I dont get why I cant completely remove him from my life , I tried over 5 times to and its been an year , I suppose I feel sorry for him as im his only friend and hes always going on about how loney he is and how messed up his life is , I dont know why I cant set boundries , I struggle so much even at work , Ive done so well by not seeing this guy in person for months although hes been constantly asking me to , I nearly did yesterday but it he wasnt going to be ready until gone 6pm and it gets dark around then so for safety reasons I went home. He mainly wants to see me at night but I said no morings or afternoons and in town only in public or starbucks not at his house were he gets another oppunitety to hurt me , I dont really want to see him , I just feel like I have to since his stepdad died and I feel really bad for him and his mother. Maybe Its because I still dont love myself enough or I feel lonely as I havent been at work for an month. Im getting therapy again when I go back to work so hopefully That will help me as ive had two months without therapy. I deffend myself when an stranger tries anything so why I cant I do it when its an friend ? I just dont get it. I wish him well but I feel like I have to be there for him as he doesnt have anyone else as much as it hurts me and every time I think of him I remember what he did to me and I feel so mad but I feel like I will be held respoinsible by his mother if He hurt himself or went into deep depression from not having my support.

I think you should tell your boyfriend about this. And see what he advises you. I understand that you want to protect him from your own problems, but you need to realize that it's not just you and your problems anymore, it's you and him and all the issues u need to face together. It will strengthen your bond, plus you wont feel so lost, like you dont know what to do. It will give u some sort of reassurance that you're doing it for the both of you. Also the security that you have somebody to back u up in any of your issues with other people u encounter.
WHAT?

The guy's loss doesn't give him a free chance...to *rape* you...?

Just tell him you are not *ever* seeing him again, and don't.

Make a police report.

You need to have respect for yourself.

Holy hell. You poor thing. It seems you’re placing more worth on him than you are on yourself.

I can strongly recommend the book Boundaries by Dr McCloud and Townsend

If you would like PM me your address and I’ll send it to you myself
