Well here goes. I was you when I was young. I started out just like your situation. And then word got around via the men who were doing this then a lot of other guys would pressure me. Life became an out of control situation. I ran away from home because I could not deal with it. I have delt with many of my issues and still continue having to deal with this one. I wish had gotten to talk to someone like you did with your parents. I do not think I would be having so much trouble now if I had been able to get support and help. It is okay to say no. It is ok to ask for help from people you know care about you. My healing began when I learned about self esteem and self worth. Occasionally I will come across a post or a news story or a nightmare that will bring this period of my life back to me. I am glad you talked to your parents and I hope that next time you find yourself in a similiar situation, you will be strong enough to get away from them. Keep posting and let us know how you are working through this.
