I'm not at all mad just working through this but, people have told me through psychcentral....don't you think you were just two kids exploring sexually?....well, if I knew the answer to that I don't think I would be having problems. And if it was my choice, and it wasn't invasive maybe I wouldnt care. And if I did not have a reaction to it years later...that happened abrubtly,....then maybe I wouldn't care. If I was the one who initiated what happened when I was little and I did not cry or feel scared when it happened...then maybe I could go with that thought. YES! I would love to think, we were just two kids exploring...when i was little...but, I can't think that because I cannot remember that. I only remember that I did not want to "explore." I was just trying to sleep. So, apparently, what happened to me will always be minimized. although, it is randomly effecting me years later...

its just two kids exploring right?

although, now its hard to seperate violation from sex.

its just two kids exploring right?

yeah.
this stinks?

THis makes all the difference then. You weren't "just 2 kids exploring" because like you said, you weren't exploring. This is your experience and you have every right to interpret it for yourself. No one else has the right to interpret your experiences for you.

even as a kid you had a right to say no and be safe in your home, if you did not want to explore then it should not have happened, if it did then it is abuse and no one has the right to say it was anything else. the fact it is affecting you years later screams abuse to me regardless of the other parties age.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
