Why regret? You were very strong to write it and let people read it. I'm speechless, what can someone like me say about such a horrible experience? I'm sorry isn't enough, but it's all I have...

ditto on CAL ..

sometimes we need to be reminded that the world isn't all full of funny diets and crazy plumbing (not to pick on paint, we love to laugh too)
don't be sorry .. be strong.

There are 2 things I hate in life. Lectures and any man who would hurt a woman.
Please tell me you got the piece of shit that did this?

You're a stronger person than me. I dont think I could ever share something like that.

Good day to you, Ms. Lynda whom I have not yet met.

I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to express yourself as you have. I am sure it wasn't easy.

Though it be not my place, allow me to offer apology for the tendrils of filth that have crept out of our social cesspool and taken so much from you. Too much indecency. Too much usury. Sometimes it's so fucking hard for me to understand why so few of us decline the embrace of our own divinity, our higher and nobler selves. I always thought that sense of propriety was ingrained, and something that neither circumstance nor indoctrination could cloud or erase. These days grow increasingly darker, and now I'm not so very sure of that at all.

For whatever it's worth, I'm sorry.

Be strong and be welcome.

I understand what you're saying about realizing you didn't set your defences high enough. . . I've come to that realization myself recently and it makes you feel bad inside to know that you let yourself down. That there could have been MORE you could have done to protect yourself. Then you usually fall into a self-serving bias and change things. Upgrade your defences, so to speak. You learn and move on, which it sounds like you did. Good for you.

Aww, thanks!
The reason I say I regret writing that is because I did it thinking that it would never get posted, so I wrote it rather sloppily...I'm glad you all enjoyed it

Lynda I don't really know you, but I'm so sorry that this happened to you. I know exactly how you felt/feel. I lost my virginity at 13, also. I hung around with older people, and at that time, I thought I had to do it to be cool. To fit in. I've done a lot in my life that I'm not proud of. I'm just glad that I became someone that didn't need to try to fit in.

I'm glad that you're ok. And I'm glad that you can look at it as a learning experience. I just hate that it had to be that harsh. *hugs*

I'm getting cooler by the minute!

Lynda-

Wow. That's a pretty crazy experience. I don't know exactly why, but thank you for sharing it with us. It is good to now that in spite of the horror of the situation, you have come through as good as could be hoped for. You are able to not only deal with it, but are able to share with us, hopefully for everyone's benefit.

There isn't much more to say, I guess.

*hugs lynda*

Something very similar happened to my sister.. reading that makes me all sorts of angry. I'm glad you were able to get past what happened, and grow stronger from it. Thank you for sharing this.

Don't worry, karma will get those assholes. And they won't be laughing then.

Stay strong sweetie.

------------------------
I only want your happiness, knowing I can never be yours to share it.
