to everyone who is reading this, EDUCATE yourself on the concept of CONSENT. it is NOT negotiable and you cannot and should not even try to "convince" a woman to indulge into anything with you.
the reason why i am sharing this with you guys is that it was today that i finally confronted this guy, yelled my heart out. i am choosing to keep the person anonymous because i have personally dealt with it the way i wanted to so that's just it.
recently, i ended up sharing this when we were in a discussion of the kinds of harassment we have faced. after a very detailed talk about this with one of my friends, i realised how much of this trauma i am carrying and the effect it was having on me.
he kept saying things like "nothing is gonna happen" and "we don't have to do anything, just let me take them off." this must have gone on for about 10 minutes before i pushed him off and then asked him to leave. i didn't wanna think about it anymore and so i just supressed it.
after less than a minute into it, he started undoing my pants. i told him no, I didn't wanna do that but he started insisting and forcefully pulling them down. i kept saying no, over and over again, but that did not seem to have any effect on him.
tw// sexual harassment
last year in september, i was hanging out with this person who, at the time, i had known for a little more than 2 years and was my best friend. he dropped me back home and naturally, i invited him in. we were talking and somehow, we ended up kissing.
