I was sexually assaulted when I was a 14 yr old freshman by an upper class man from my high school at a party.

I am 47, I remember every second of it and I remember his name and have told 3 people about it. The two girlfriends who saved me from being raped and my husband.
That summer, now aged 15, I was introduced to the cousin of my besties boyfriend. He was a wrestler and literally pinned me down and attacked me. I had to ride my bike home that night in pain and bleeding.

I remember his name and the only person I ever told was my now husband.
My sophomore year in high school I met a fantastic guy from the high school across town. We dated for 3 years on and off through high school. I was still a virgin and when I turned 18- 2 months before I graduated from high school my “nice” boyfriend raped me.
I was ashamed & embarrassed about being slut-shamed & never reported these attacks. I should have. I carry a lot of guilt, I have no idea how many other women were attacked by these men because I didn’t report it.

My story is more common than not.
