My friend, the last person you want to hear from is a guy.. I am incredibly sorry for what happened to you. Honestly you need to seek help, Therapy. Talk to people you can trust. Unfortunately 4 years is not enough really to "get over it".. I dont think you can ever really get over it. not fully anyway. You can equip your self with tools to help identify bad behavior, or recognize good ones... I can't really tell you how to identify good or bad ones.. beyond one rule, its an important one. Mind what a person does, not just their words, their behaviors will betray their lies, and their true intentions.

Sorry to hear about what you went through. I'm sure some insensitive men will take offense to this, ignore them, you have nothing to feel guilty about.
It's perfectly within reason to not immediately trust strange men you don't know. Your safety is more important then our feelings. The best way to tell if someone is or isn't a good person is to talk and spend time with them. If you're afraid of men in general and can't bring yourself to get that close to men, the best advice I could give to you would be to seek professional help.
This happened to a friend of mine. She went through a lot of counseling and joined a rape survivors support group and she also leaned on her friends a lot for support.
