How many women on here have been raped before?

Well, it happened to my ex girlfriend apparently, but that's what she gets for drinking with just all guys, I told her it was going to happen and I was right luckily I wasn't with her at the time so I didn't feel bad, because I told her not to go and party with just guys and she didn't listen to me.

I am truly sorry for what has happened to you. The same thing happened to my sister and an ex-girlfriend of mine. I felt bad just seeing what they went though and am glad that they have been able to get them selfs together and move on with there life.

I will say a prayer for you as well

I'm so sorry to hear that. Please seek counseling to help you deal with this. Remember, its not your fault. You are a victim; you didn't do anything wrong. I hope your attacker is punished for what he did to you!

100% agree with Lesae, and I will pray for you as well. A terrible side of the human race. I have had experience with many many women, and I am sad to tell you that about 10% of my previous lovers had experienced rape or sexual assault in their past. And that was only those that came forward and told me, so perhaps and most likely it is higher than that. Of those that told me about it, most had "moved on" and were not constantly dwelling on it, so apparently it is something you can cope with and still have a normal life. Definitely, get counseling (those that "moved on" had done so and/or were still doing so) and like Lesae, said, remember, it is never your fault. I am ashamed of my fellow man.

I was raped when I was 17..... I managed to pull through and realize the difference between sex and rape.

I went through rape when I was younger. I'm 17 years old right now but when I was 8 I was raped and it continued for an entire year. Recently, a few weeks ago, I came out and told my school counselor and she had to call my mom. I completely flipped out and went through every single emotion you can imagine and I still haven't let myself admit it was me. The way I deal with it is by pretending that it was someone else the whole time. And the worst thing possible is that it was someone very close to me who did that and I can't trust anyone. But the whole point of writing this is so you know your not alone and as hard as this might be to hear you need to tell someone. If I were you 2 weeks ago I would've said forget that and continued living in silence but it feels really good to tell someone who cares about you. Find someone, like a friend or a counselor, someone you trust, and tell them what happened. I'm praying to god that you'll be okay and get help because I know what it feels like. Just hang in there sweetie. You're going to be okay.

I went through rape about three years ago and let me tell you the truth. It never goes away. A rape victim will always be a part of who you are unless you tell someone and take steps to make things right. The women and men who have been raped need each other for support. It is a living nightmare to repair yourself. I tried and failed. It wasn't until I found a group of girls and a couple of guys who had gone through the same terror and pain that I did, did I finally begin to truly heal. Talk about. Seek help. Do NOT be embarrassed. It is not your fault. But it is you duty to help yourself by finding others who can help.

I hope you are seeking counseling and that you have someone you can talk to and that you reported it. I will say a prayer for you tonight, because it is a violation and you will need support for the following months. You need to know that you did nothing wrong. I am here if you ever want to talk. -Lesae
