was i assaulted or even raped?

[beebs]

i have a question about something that happend when i was younger.
its come to my mind because a friend told me that she had been raped when she was younger.
and its made me wonder if something that happend when i was younger is sexual assault or even rape?

i was about 7 or 8, and an older friend was staying at my house. and she said we should have some fun, i didnt know it at the time but i know now that she made me engage in lesbian sex. i remember screaming and telling her to stop but we were staying in a tent outside so no one could here.

ive had a very bad relashionship with other girls, female friends and family members since then. i have a few girl mates but ive struggled to trust most girls, and i have been to a very small amount of sleepovers since then, i thought this was just how i was, untill the incident became fresh in my mind. and ive realised how much dis-trust i have for girls because of it.

i know nothing can be done about it now, and it probully sounds like attention seeking, but i just wondered was this anything bad? was this abuse? or am i just being silly?

Hmmm if it was me i would think that i was raped in a way...

Of course it was abuse. It's molestation and probably rape. Telling her to stop means you didn't consent so yeah, you were assaulted.

She forced you to do something you didn't want to do. Of course that's abuse. I'm so sorry you had to go through that, honey. I'm really scared of men because of my father. It's normal for you to feel this way. But we both have to learn that rapists don't make up the entire world.

She was one girl. You need to learn to trust again. She can't use or hurt you anymore. You survived and now you're going to be okay. Give yourself and the world another chance. You're a strong girl. Good luck.

That does sound like abuse to me. Whether you wish to let it go or pursue some form of prosecution is your decision to make.
I would like to say more about this, but the lovely Amaryllies above me has worded it eloquently already, so I would gladly refer you to that one :)

Most sincerely,
Robert.
