when i was younger, about 6/7, an older man (about 17) approached me at a park late at night and told me my pants were undone and that he would help me do them up, he brought me to a park bench and proceeded to stick his hand down my pants and feel my private area. I was so young and didn’t understand what was happening but i knew i didnt like it. I grabbed his hand from out of my pants and started crying and running home. To this day my parents don’t know it happened, i told them i was crying because it was dark out (because it was about 8pm) and it haunts me everyday. The memory is so vivid and i cant get it out of my head. I hope this man was caught and i hope he never did this to any other little girls.

Thank you so much for sharing your story here. First of all, what that man did to you is NOT YOUR FAULT!!!! It’s also not your fault if he did it again. I’m proud of you for pushing forward and for posting this. I would encourage you – if you can – to talk to a therapist. If it’s still haunting you, it’s likely that you need to process what happened in order to heal. A therapist can work with you to do that in the way that’s best for you. You deserve to get it out of your head and to move forward and heal. You can do it – I believe in you. Love, Alexis
