Unsure if this could be classified as sexual assualt...?

Postby minor_threat » Fri Apr 17, 2009 6:22 pm

I don't know if this is something that other girls have experienced when they were younger, or if it should be taken seriously but when I was younger, maybe 9 or 10, I remember, when I was at my best friends house, her little brother would touch my boobs.
It would make me feel really awkward (obviously) and I'd just freeze up. I remember on one occasion his mum told me that I shouldn't let him do that, and I kind of just laughed it off, feeling kind of guilty and perverted for... well, not stopping him. Its not like I wanted him to tough me there or anything but I would just freeze and not know what to do.
The same thing happened a couple of times at another friend's house too. He had a little brother the same age as my best friend's brother, and he would touch me too.
Basically I would like to know if this has happened to any one else? This all happened 8 years ago, and I had forgotten about it until last year. I don't know why I suddenly remember, but I think it may have effected me in some way, because now, I'm a teenager and the thought of doing anything sexual with a guy terrifys me. I've only ever kissed a guy once in my life and have never told anyone because, like I said, anything like that makes me feel uncomfortable.
I would love if anyone could give me their opinions on this because I've never told anyone about it and I'm unsure of what to think about the whole situation, really.
Thanks.

Hi, minor_threat! Stuff like this has happened to me too and thinking about it does make me feel bad. It's not your fault that it happened and what those kids did was wrong. People don't always react "the right way" in these situations and you have nothing to blame yourself for.
It could make you feel uncomfortable about sex. You have to look inside yourself to see what is going on and why you're scared.

HI there.

I am total agree with jasmin. You should look within yourself, but you must aware for next time in future. It is total non sense. You were feeling awkward that time because you don't like it others will touch you. Anyways try to out come out from that fear, if you are feeling helpless then we can help you. Wishing you a warm welcome from us!!

hey,

there is nothing wrong with you feeling weird about it now, and there was nothing wrong with you back then that you didn't stop it! You were small, they were your friends brothers, it can be hard to say no too, so whatever you do, don't let the comment that mom made make u feel guilty!

She should've been a responsible adult and stepped in and told the kids to quit it
