I was repeatedly sexually assaulted by the same person for about 3 years. He was my best friend from when we were small children until then. At first it was small things, him standing too close to me or his hand being too low on my back or too high on my thigh. Eventually it escalated to him groping me, shoving me against a wall and dry humping me, sending me explicit pictures, and verbally abusing me when I tried to fight back. I still see him at school everyday and seeing him or hearing his name gives me anxiety attacks. I wish I had done something before it was too late. If you’re questioning taking legal action do it. I regret not doing something.
