My heart was pounding as I left the pub. What was meant to be a fun night out with my friends ended with me feeling scared, violated, and helpless.
It started as a normal night, we were drinking, chatting, and having a good time. But then two men approached us, and things took a turn for the worse. At first, their advances were just annoying, but they soon became more aggressive and physical.
One of the men said something that sent chills down my spine. He said, “Only first-time pain, after that it’s love”, implying something very inappropriate. I was so scared that I didn’t know what to do. I froze in fear and tried to back away, hoping they would leave us alone.
Thankfully, one of my friends had the courage to stand up to them. She told them to leave us alone and that we weren’t interested. The men eventually left, but not before one of them made a lewd comment about me.
I have always been a timid, small guy and I have been afraid of saying no and facing confrontations.
I felt violated, embarrassed, and scared. I couldn’t believe this had happened. I had gone out for a fun night, and it ended with me feeling so scared and helpless. I was so shaken up that I couldn’t even talk to my friends about what had happened.
I wanted to forget about the incident and move on, but I couldn’t. I kept replaying it in my head, and every time I did, I would get angry and scared. I was afraid that something like this could happen to me again.
Eventually, I started going out again, but I was always on edge. I was scared that something like this could happen to me again. I was scared that I wouldn’t be able to defend myself and that I would be helpless.
