my original comment was "This thread, no this whole sub is hilarious to me. What happened to OP was terrible for a number of reasons, she got fired, she got slut shamed, her parents clearly reacted entirely inappropriately, she lost her best friend, and her ex turned out to be a complete piece of shit. The first thing that gets pointed out, of course, is that she was "raped". (I can imagine you salivating at this point in anticipation of downvoting this comment as including the word rape in quotation marks has no doubt triggered you, feel free.) Sounds like two teenagers were messing around naked, and one of them tried to initiate sex. As soon as she declined, he stopped. He then apologized profusely. Keep in mind that both of these people are like 17 years old and hormonal as hell making out naked, but no the guy is a rapist and he should be thrown in jail. OP herself has already stated that she doesn't believe she was raped (because, you know, she wasn't raped), but the group think in this thread of course goes back to the old stand by- THERAPY. Yeah, OP should go to therapy and invest money into creating a whole set of neuroses around being a rape victim. Then she should hold on to that trauma for the rest of her life. It is this sub's categorical imperative to turn every single sexual encounter without a signed and notarized sex contract into a capital rape case. I don't understand. There is enough terrible shit going on in OP's life that strangers on the internet don't need to convince her she is a rape victim. OP, I am so sorry that all of this shit happened to you, but your gut feeling is correct- you weren't raped. Pretty sure if you were, you would know it."

For some reason it was deleted.
