How do I get over my assaulter.
The story
this happened two years ago now, but I cannot look at her without sobbing. for some backstory, we were both teens when this happened, both females. we're gonna call her fay. well, fay had just gotten into a relationship and she loved her girlfriend. I was her best friend at the time, but fay wanted more, and she liked to remind me of this. she would always be all over me, touching me in ways that made me sooooooo uncomfortable. it got to a point I screamed in the middle of the mall in town that I'd call her girlfriend and she snatched my phone out of my hands and begged for me not to. well, she had forced me to shower with her and pulled my bathing suit top down. she also attempted to "get in my pants." WELL. fay started cheating on her girlfriend. and this happened many, many times. when I told said girlfriend, fay blamed an unaliving attempt on me because of her actions. I blocked her and had a panic attack nearly all night because I genuinely thought I had done something wrong. guess what? they're still together. now, fay is trying to be my friend again. she showed up to color guard auditions and I had to run away crying because she loves to take things I've loved: guard, instruments, names, clothing styles, music tastes, so on and so forth. what do I do? how do I keep distance, and how can I process everything? I don't know.

Points of view
I feel for you in this messy situation; it's understandable to be overwhelmed by all of it. But honestly, it sounds like Fay has crossed some serious lines and it's totally reasonable to want to keep your distance from her. I doubt a person who disrespects boundaries like that can just turn around and become friend material again. Your feelings here aren't wrong at all, even if she's trying to worm her way back into your life. Focus on areas or activities where she can't intrude on your personal space too much; it's definitely okay to protect yourself from emotional harm.
Wow, you've been through the wringer with Fay; that behavior is way beyond what's acceptable, especially from someone who claimed to be your best friend. It's like she's got a PhD in crossing boundaries and missing red flags. Honestly, sounds like you need an emotional restraining order on this one because her mere presence seems toxic. I've dealt with a similar situation where an ex-friend just didn't get the hint until I made my social life totally separate from anything they were involved in; cutting out mutual activities was hard but necessary for peace of mind. Trust me, focusing on building new connections with people who genuinely respect your vibe can be really refreshing...
It's truly troubling to hear you went through all this with someone who was supposed to be a friend. Honestly, Fay's behavior screams manipulation and disrespect; she seems to treat boundaries like they're optional, which is not okay. 🚩 While forgiveness might seem like the high road, self-preservation should be your priority here. I once had a friend who constantly overstepped boundaries and tried to control my life subtly; cutting ties wasn't easy, but it gave me the freedom to rediscover myself without their shadow looming over everything I did. Maybe consider getting involved in activities or groups where Fay isn’t present so you can explore interests without her interference? it's amazing how reclaiming your space can help clear your head and focus on healing.
Fay is a piece of shit, you didn't do anything wrong. She raped you, used you to your advantage, and now trying to get back to you. block her on everything, or report her.
wow, that's so rough! seems like fay was constantly overstepping and not respecting your boundaries; it's wild how she managed to turn things around on you. I reckon focusing on healing is key here!! maybe consider talking to someone professional who can help untangle all those emotions? starve her of attention and keep doing your own thing; eventually, she'll get the message that you're done playing games. remember, you deserve relationships built on respect and trust!!!
wow, this is a lot to unpack. honestly, it sounds like fay's behavior wasn't just uncomfortable but downright violating!! it's totally understandable why you're distraught over this and wanting to keep your distance. maybe one thing you can try is letting someone close and trusted in on what's going on, like a friend or mentor who isn't connected to her? they might help provide support when things feel overwhelming. also, reflecting on what truly makes you happy apart from all this drama could help rebuild a sense of peace in your life. remember that it's okay to put yourself first!!!
