Wishing you had dressed differently or not allowed him to start kissing you. Your mind continues to replay the scene to find out what you did to provoke him. Dating is a way to get to know someone and perhaps fall in love. Everybody does it. Tragically, a rite of passage that we anticipate and enjoy has turned into a nightmare for so many dating girls and women.
Date rape is a violent crime, an act of hostility and force intended to humiliate.
Date rape victims feel dirty, used, guilty and humiliated, but sadly they often do not recognize that what happened was rape and a punishable crime. Most date rape victims blame themselves for trusting the person in the first place. Sometimes even the guy does not realize that he has raped. Go to the Emergency Room. A special Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner will collect evidence and address physical injuries, exposure to sexually transmitted diseases, and pregnancy prevention.
