I have to talk to you about something. “OK, what’s going on?” It’s really hard to talk about. I don’t even know how to say it. “It’s OK. Take your time.” OK, I guess I’ll just tell you what happened. So, remember how we were at that party the other night, and I was talking to that guy? “Um… oh yeah, I remember.” Well. I ended up going back with him. And we were like, messing around, and I thought everything was fine at first, but then I realized I kind of wanted to stop, like it didn’t feel that good, and I was tired, and I just wanted to go home. And I tried to tell him, but...I don’t know if he didn’t hear me, or… I mean, I said it a few times. And I tried to be loud. But he didn’t stop. So… yeah. And then after all of it I just went home. “Oh my gosh….That’s awful. ” Yeah. I don’t know how to feel about it… I don’t know. Maybe I’m still processing it. “Yeah, I mean, I think that’s normal. I’m so sorry. Is there anything I can do to help you?” I don’t know. I don’t think so. Just… I’m not sure what to think. I knew he’d been drinking, and I chose to go back with him. Isn’t it kind of my fault too? “No. Not at all. You didn’t do anything to deserve this.” I know, it’s just… I keep thinking, maybe if I’d just spoken up sooner, or gone home with you, or… “It’s an awful thing to have happen, but nothing about it is your fault, no matter what.” OK. Yeah, you’re right. “I don’t want to rush you or anything, or assume what you want to do… I’ll support you no matter what. I know that there are people you can talk to about this, though, that know how to help you.” Yeah, I know. I’m still thinking about what I should do...I don’t know. “I’ve heard there’s a lot of resources out there for this kind of thing. We could go online and look together if you want, or I could look and send you things I think would help? I can help with anything you need, but if you want to do it on your own, that’s totally OK too.” Can you just stay with me for a little while? I think it’s just taking me some time to process everything… I don’t know what I want to do.” “Of course, I’ll stay with you for as long as you need. And if you end up wanting to talk to anyone about it and want me to come, I can do that too. But you don’t have to decide on anything right now.” Yeah. Thanks for listening. Maybe we can go online and look at some stuff in a bit? “Sure, whatever you want. And I just wanted to tell you how brave you are to tell me. I know it can’t have been easy. I’m so sorry that this happened, and whatever you need, even if you just want to talk about it more, I’m here for you.”
