My boyfriend raped me. He forced me to give him a blowjob and then lifted me against a wall and had sex with me. He told me not to tell anyone anything that happens between us, ever. Now I’m acting like the perfect girlfriend. What’s wrong with me?

An anon sent me the link to this post. OP, if you are reading this, there is nothing wrong with you. You were betrayed by someone you trusted and cared for, and it is hard to know how to handle that. If you need someone to talk to about it, please think about contacting a rape crisis counselor. They can listen to your feelings and try to help. Please be safe, and take care of yourself.
