I’ve been close to this pretty girl, and we’ve been seeing each other and chatting. One day, she came over, and things escalated. We were about to have sex, but she said no, so I smiled and said sorry, leaving her alone. To my shock, she started crying, asking why I didn’t force myself on her. I was confused, thinking, “Is this for real” She explained that her past boyfriends always forced her to do things, and that seemed normal to her. On her second visit, it was the same situation. She was scared to meet me in the living room while I was working. She later told me how, in the past, she once tried sitting on her ex’s lap because she felt lonely while he was watching a game, and he flogged her with a belt. Honestly, I don’t know what’s going on, but it seems like she really needs help. Every little thing I do that doesn’t involve forcing her makes her cry. I feel for her deeply. It’s so sad to think about how some guys treat girls. I pray she heals from this.
