Hi Oreosandcookies, I love your name btw. I like oreos and cookies too ;)
Hmm.. assault? I can really relate to your post if its any consultation. I have had problems with abuse off my Dad for years and years and am currently taking my own Father to court for assault.
When we have been treated badly, I think it is easy to assume we feel as if we did something to make our abuser treat us unkindly. The thing is, no matter what we do, it is never, not once, our fault. Is it a young girls fault (speaking hypothetically here) because she did not listen to her Father that she gets hit or swore at, etc.
No. It is never our fault. I know you feel guilty about what ever happened between you and this person but you should know that whatever happened, how the hell could it be your fault?
He controls his actions, you control yours.
Also I extremely empathise with your eating disorder coming back whilst all of this hulabulloo is going on, I have had bulimia/EDNOS for 2-4 years, and am finding it difficult to manage when all of this is going on also.
Do you feel better after posting? Can you try and look at rational solutions to all of this? Because I am sorry to say, as much as you starve/purge/binge/self harm/ w/e, it may numb the pain, but it wont solve anything at heart.
If you did press charges against this person for sexual assault, do you think it would make things better or worse? What would happen in the long outcome, define all the various possibilties>
Try your best to think rationally here, I know it's not easy
Here for you sweetheart
