Yes this will no longer affect her. I mean she has now opened up about it to her family (she didn't get much support from them with their all "honor" thinking), but there is no danger to her life or anything like that. That situation was 7 years back.
Calling the police was my last option then because knowing her society, they would rather die in abuse than have the world see their dirty laundry.

And Leed, no I wasn't concerned about my feelings. I had extremely strong fears that her father will send her back to the country where she was sexually abused for years. I choose to tell the few people that I did so they can understand her situation and hopefully help her or help me help her, if needed.
Today at nearly 28 I would have done different. Then at 20, experiencing all that, I was out of my wits. And although I know of her culture, it is not mine so all of this was as much as a shock for me too.

I do not blame her for hating me for it. She never even asked me about it. I confessed to her because the guilt was eating at me. But at that situation and that time, I would have repeated the same thing because no one else was even willing to listen to me as to why she might be in danger or why they can't send her back to her country.

As for my feelings now, yes you can say I was thinking about myself. She hates that I even mention to anyone that we were in a relationship or ever together. It is selfish of me to tell anyone that we were together. But maybe she shouldn't be in a relationship if she has to hide it...and I can't even be publicly upset why I am depressed over her treatment of me and her constant break-ups...

She is the only one I have ever divulged anything about. Maybe that is why it still eats at me. A few days back though I read an interesting quote "if the secret is so huge that you cannot handle the burden, then it is probably a heavy burden for someone else too". Her secret was killing her. So when no one cared why I would be so bothered with the forced break up or if she is sent back, I felt I had no choice. Also, without telling her best two female friends, I wouldn't even have known what is happening with her life because they had cut her off from going out, going on the computer, or using a phone.

Thanks for the replies both of you!
