Well let me set up what happened for you. Last night at a party with my girlfriend of six months(has been raped before). I told her i would never leave her side at this party and i broke the promise when she asked to go to the toilet, i asked her two times and she said she would be fine.

After about 10 minutes of her going i began to worry and my friend said i wasnt keeping the time properly and she just left us. so after a little while i said where is she she should be back. we went down to the toilet to have no trace of her at all we checked the dance floor, the fires and the cars(incase she was cheating on me). After that we had no trace of her again and decided to take it to the owners of the place to track down where she was. I was hanging back a little bit expecting her to be cheating on me and ready to leave and get the fuck out of there. I was sitting down and when my mate came up and told me she was raped, she was there in just her tights with nothing else on crying to herself.

The moment i was told i fell to the ground crying, and my breathing became really short and i felt like i was going to pass out and shaking all of my body kind of like a seizure but i was still aware of what i was doing. I began to start hitting my head agaisnt the ground in hope to wake up because i could feel nothing at the time i thought i would just wake up and get out of this hell i was in.

After i managed to calm myself down i went to the car where we drove to the hospital where she was treated (i was not aloud in) but her two friends where. When i saw her at the enterance all i said was i am sorry(i was speechless) i began crying and not showing her my face because i felt so bad. After this time we were transfered to another hospital where i was made to wait outside for 2 hours, when she was realeased she didnt want to talk to me or give me eye contact i just felt to empty inside. While i was waiting i saw i man which i had once met before for some reason i put my head to his chest and began to weep and hold onto him as tight as i could just because it made me feel like i was holding her or even just touching someone else made me emational, the harder i held him to worse i felt but i couldnt stop doing it.

We were taken home expecting them all to come home later but she was kept and her mum was asked to pick her up, i pretty much have had no sleep and she has deleted her facebook (no longer in a relationship? so facebook says) her mobile has been turned off and i rang her home phone which was on the answering machine, she has not said a word to me which i can't fucking deal with al all im not sure what is going on. This has happened twice i feel like i have failed i feel like i dont deserve to be here, i feel like it is my time, i cant deal with this stress i just don't think this world was meant for me. I am going to see friends because if i am alone i KNOW i will do something stupid please help me :(
 
i doubt she knows much of whats going on atm either, but thats not worth not waiting around for, and neither is your own life.

hopefully you are with your friends, this impact will lessen over-time as it should if allowed in a healthy way - you have not failed at anything i can imagine with this as there was nothing that could of been done by you, but now is a good time to start by at least continuing your faith in each others lives.


the hospital, any doctors, counselors or psychologists, the law, she, you your self, and both of your friends and family all can only do as much as you can with this - and taking care of yourself now is whats most important for you both now and later.

^ So true.

Man it is not your fault...look you got to understand that you have no responsibility for what happened or for preventing it. This kinda shit tears people up, its so sad. :(


Am sure she is feeling alot of shame about this and she is trying to deal with what happened to her. She must be going through alot at the moment psychologically, allow her the time to heal... and dont beat yourself up for a situation that was completely out of your control hun. Take care. <3
 
I'm sorry to hear about this. Just remember that you really cannot be held responsible for what happened. Like others said she is going through a lot at this point (as are you) and she may just need her space to heal. So I'm sorry that this happened but don't let yourself make yourself feel like you are to blame.

It's important to take extra care for yourself after traumatic experiences. Rather than beat yourself up you can acknowledge your feelings and vent; but you do not not need to believe that you are the one responsible for what happened <3
