The Wanderer

Japanese film posters rule.

I was in a relationship with a much older man for several months. He was extremely emotionally abusive. I don’t want to get into the details, but when we were having sex once, I didn’t want to do something, I said no over and over again. He didn’t listen and said “You can’t say no to me”. I realized he wouldn’t listen and so I decided to lay down and let it happen. I thought “I will be over soon, just let him do it, he won’t listen to you, it will only be for a few minutes.” This happened over and over again. He also showed videos we took in private to my coworkers without my permission. I have to work 45 hours a week knowing that these men have seen my naked body doing sexual acts. Its so violating, they constantly sexually harass me and speak about me in Spanish to each other. My coworkers have blamed me for his actions and everyone still loves him despite knowing what he has done to me. I am not the only girl that he has done this to. Nothing will stop him and no one cares about us, they still like him. I am having a hard time dealing with all of this, but if you are a victim of rape or sexual harassment, you are not alone and it is NOT your fault.

STOP assuming that self-harm is visible and easy to notice. It’s NOT. Self harm isn’t always physical, it can be emotional, and mental as well
