He deserves more than consequences at work IMO, but that is a personal choice if you wish to pursue legal avenues. Good for you for sharing in therapy, it is hard at first, but gradually it gets easier to let things out. You took the first step - which is huge - I am proud of you for that. It was not your fault - the blame is all his! No matter how sad or remorseful or whatever he may seem - it is just another way to manipulate you. Have you quit your job? I'm worried about you having to see him regularly - if you continue to work there, you can ask HR to require him to maintain distance from you and not approach you. Ultimately because they are aware of the "harassment" report, the are responsible for keeping you protected from him. Keep us posted, okay? I am keeping you in my thoughts!
