yeah, I'm definitely not trying to excuse the fact that he should've respected my answer, though I was making out and touching him in ways that made it seem like I was okay with it. it's just hard to establish boundaries halfway through two people being aroused.
this has also really confused me because I do really like this guy, but it is concerning that he didn't respect me. like I said, he was extremely apologetic after he knew the extent of what happened. again, not excusing what he should've done, just saying I don't think he had bad intentions.
when we were talking about it he did say that he went to counseling when he was older and realized what really happened to him. now he views it as he's been through some really terrible things in his life, but now he owns his own apartment, has a job... like if he can do this despite all the bad things, he's doing pretty good.
he seems pretty okay about it now, it did fuck him up in the past but I think he's turned it around for the better.
I just don't know, he seems like an amazing guy all around, except that he pushed me into sex. I like him but I don't know if I should.
I could probably ask him about it, and I definitely will try researching. unfortunately it seems like there are a LOT less sources out there for male victims than females.
i don't know what i'm supposed to do haunted by the ghost of you
