I have a friend who used to be a big party girl when she was around 15 or so and is now 18. She met a 22/23 year old and they started hanging out, stupidly. Well, she was flattered of course that an older guy wanted to hang out with her, so one thing led to another and very soon after they met they had s*x.
She's spent many months debating over whether or not he took advantage of her, and is still wondering if she should be mad at him or not. Right now, she hates him so much, because of all the pain he put her through. Does she have a right to be mad?
now part 2- sort of...
She has since realized how stupid and young she was to hang out with such an older guy, and has tried to drop him out of her life.. he still tries to get in touch to 'hang out'. Well, he came into the place she works today and she almost had like a panic attack--she felt like puking and was shaking and short of breath.
what do you think? do you think he raped her, even though she says it was consensual, although I'm sure she was pressured? any thoughts?
