(TW, nsfw) Please help me understand why my gf wants to be friends with her sexual harasser

There are some cases where a variety of actions one might think are delusional will be taken by someone who is a victim of SA. Stockholm syndrome famously, but there are many ways people's minds change after experiencing trauma. But the way you describe this, it seems more and more like your partner is lying about SA. This happens a lot under the situation you're describing, which is lying to cover up a personal failure like cheating. (it very rarely happens that a woman is lying to "ruin" a man's life) Whether or not her story is true, you're unlikely to find out until the future whenever she may actually tell you or you find further proof of it. We have a lack of perspective and won't really be able to truly help you in finding the truth, but I think it is worthwhile to say that lies are being told in this relationship and it may not be the kind that is built to last. If you're spending time with someone you see a future with, and they do NOT share that vision, it may be time to move on and find someone who will. Regardless of where they may be in life. Hope everything turns out for the best ♡
