Is it normal to feel guilty about being raped?
Just finding this site, I had a specific question, so I got an account just for it.
A few weeks ago, I was going over to my neighbors house because I forgot my keys. It was my only choice since I didn't have a cell phone, and my other neighbors weren't home. So, I rang the door bell, and he let me in. His name is John, a guy in his late 20's, generally nice to be around, whenever my parents have him visit. So, I explained that I forgot my keys, and that I needed to borrow the spare key that he keeps for us. He led me through the door that I thought was to the kitchen. It wasn't. It went down stairs, straight into the basement.

He pushed me down the stairs, and pinned me to the ground. John tore my shirt and my bra off and took off my pants. Then he took off his pants and raped me. It seemed like hours until he stopped, and John grabbed my throat and said "You tell a single person, and you wont ever see another human being in your life again except for me." Then he unlocked the basement door that went outside and threw my clothes on the grass. I went out and put my pants on with my bra, but my shirt was torn so I didn't bother with it. I went back over to my house and used a tree branch to break through the back door. My parents think that some kid just threw a rock at the door. I never told my parents a word. I hope to god John doesn't ever find out about this.

I feel like it is my fault for being raped. I should have suspected something like this might have happened, since he was always saying stuff when he came to visit like "What a lovely daughter you have. I bet she gets any guy she wants." I'm only thirteen so I never thought it would happen to me.

Hey, I just accidentally flagged this as fake... please don't pay attention to it because the is no way in hell I would ever lie about my life.
awwwwwwwwwwwww...........iam so sorry you had to go through that.
yes its normal to feel guilty but you should have gone to the hospitlal and to the police. guys like that should be behind bars
so they cant do that again to someone else
i just want you to know its not your fault you could have never known he was going to do that
you should have kicked him in his balls and ran for it
Tell your parents right now. Don't listen to his cowardly threats as he won't be able to harm you once you tell your parents. Hopefully they will phone the police, or even better, your dad will go round and visit John with a few of his friends and a baseball bat.
Yeah this is serious, you gotta realize it isn't your fault and the other posters are right, you should tell the authorities immediately so those kind of freaks are in jail. Don't feel it was your fault, but be prepared if it were to happern again like bring pepper spray or kick him where the sun don't shine
Call the police now and tell your parents, get this scumbage off the streets. He won't be able to touch you anymore... if this is real.
i didnt mean to say you should feel guilty i meant its normal for you to feel guilty. like it was your fault but clearly rape is no ones fault
tell your parents and then call the police. He threaten you because he thinks you will scare of him since you're only 13. You need to tell your parents that. You should not feel guilty because it's not your fault. You don't know it will happen like that.
What about the rapist? Don't you think he is at least slightly to blame?
This story is disturbing. Please tell your parents the truth and also go to the police, an in depth investigation will ensue. Do not worry about the time that has passed.

I would like to add, you write extremely well for a 13 year-old, I mean your story is perfect, your grammar and your punctuation.
don't be afraid to tell your parents and the police or else you will have a disturb feeling as long as you live. criminal must be punished.
I'm skeptical...
of course the rapist is to blame but she isnt
I didn't really notice...well, thanks sisophous, I'll be sure to tell my parents.
I HOPED YOU TOLD THE POLICE ABOUT THE GUY WHO RAPPED YOU..
I HOPE HE BURNS IN HELL , ANY MAN THAT
HURTS A WOMAN OR A CHILD , NEEDS
HIS BALLS AND DICK CUT OFF.
I WOULD HAVE THAT JOHN SET UP ON
HAVE YOUR DAD SET UP A YAHOO MESSENGER
START TALKING TO JOHN AND ACCEPT HIS
EMAILS AND IM'S , SAVED THEM ALL AND
GIVE HIS YAHOO NAME TO THE
ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE IN THE STATE
WHERE YOU LIVE, THEY WILL PICK HIM UP
AND HE WILL GET CHARGED FOR YOUR RAPE
PLUS CRIMES OF INTENT , TO MEET MINORS
OFF OF THE INTERNET .
GO TELL YOUR PARENTS ASAP AND IF THEY DON"T BELIEVE YOU GO TO POLICE ASAP or TELL SOMEONE IN SCHOOL counselor etc.
tell someone! rape is not the victims fault, ever. as for feeling that you should have seen it coming: rapists are sick, sick individuals. it's not about sex, it's about power. they COULD be anybody, but i very much hope you don't stop trusting everybody.
