a good way to look at it is think about how him acting like that defines his character. although you might have lust for him, you don't have love for him. because any man that treats a school aged girl as a sex object is, for lack of a better phrase, f-ed up. so, instead of focusing on the physical attraction or your attraction to the IDEA of him, think about what him acting like that means. I think if you think about it that way you'll have another realization. And this one will be "how could I be attracted to such a pig?"
to make things a little more clear...i did not have lust for him...i never thought of him sexually...I thought of him as someone I felt safe revealing my personal information to...I thought of him as a father figure...and I still think of him in a non sexual way...but in a way that makes me feel safe...even though i know I shoudln't think of him in that way at all...I guess in someways I wish that he had been a good person and I still think that maybe he was...that he wasn't taking advantage of me...and to amke thigns more clear...I enver had sex with him...and I wouldn't have because I didn't think of him sexually

I believe that men and women should be equal...but...whatever...I dunno why i posted here...i don't think anyone understands what I've felt or what I'm trying to get across...I've been hurt by someone I thought I could trust and it has caused me a lot of damage
