Hello everyone!
I was sexually abused as a child (i am currently 18) and i have never really coped with it until recently. I have begun to accept it and work through it. One issue that I am facing right now is dating. I am currently dating a guy that does not know about the abuse, nor do i plan to tell him. He is perfect-he always asks questions to know my boundries and would never make me do anything i dont want to. He really makes me happy and i REALLY like him. But i am tempted to run. I feel like i am getting too close to him and i just constantly feel uncomfortable whenever i think of having sex with him, or even just meeting up with him again(we are long distance). I believe this all stems back to my abuse. I just wanted to know if any of you have experience with this and how you worked through it. |

Hello bulimiasaa: I'm sorry I cannot address your concerns. However I see this is your first post here on PC. So...
 to PsychCentral… from the Skeezyks!  May the time you spend here be of benefit.  PsychCentral is a great place to get information as well as support for mental health issues. The more you post, & reply to other members’ posts, the more a part of the community you will become.  Plus there are social groups you can join & chat rooms where you’ll be able to connect with other PC members in real time (once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved.) Lots of great stuff! So please keep posting!

I can't relate to this one, but I can imagine that it is very tough for you. It is tempting to run of course, but ... it could be a great chance to walk through it and reframe the experience for good this time. All the best for you!!!

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