Trigger warning
Reading through everyone else's is making me realise how many I have too 🙈
When I was around 13, my mum and I went into the public toilets in the centre of town, I finished before my mum and was washing my hands. Saw something furry & grey under the door in the cubicle next to mum, me being innocent and a lover of animals just assumed it was a cat, nope, it was a man in his 60's on the floor watching my mum have a wee 🙄 mums boyfriend at the time worked round the corner so we went to get him who dragged the guy out and called the police. Said guy had sexually assaulted a teenager in the same toilet earlier that day.
At 15 I lost my virginity to a 26yo who was my mums boyfriends colleague, he slept over in my room after they'd been out drinking.
At 15-16, I went to a house party and got absolutely smashed, passed out, woke up to find a school friend having sex with me, passed back out and never said another word about it (I could've consented, was so drunk).
At 16 I worked in the city and got the park & ride bus to work as it was near my home, the bus driver was nearly 40 and we fancied each other, he'd come into my work (Mothercare) and wait by the kids clothes rails to go and see him, then we'd snog 🤢 I found it sooo exciting.
At around 17, I went on holiday with my mum to Egypt, a security guard in the shopping centre at night, walked next to me and put his hand up my skirt and grabbed my privates 🙈 even though I was with an english guy I'd met.
On the same Egypt holiday, we got a mini bus transfer to get to the airport to go home, an old man who I think was the guy who put everyone's bags in the boot etc was stood in the aisle next to me, holding onto the handles, I was in a single seat behind my mum, I noticed he was touching my shoulder but it was quite a crammed bus so I didn't think anything of it, when I looked up I realised it was his crotch and he was rubbing his hard penis (through his trousers) on my shoulder, I was too scared to say/do anything so I just sat there looking out of the window, sobbing for the duration of the journey.
From a young age, perhaps 13, I was well into chatting online and I've always fancied an older man, my god there was some creeps on the online chat rooms! Which I loved at the time, but it makes my skin crawl now i think of it. Sent numerous pics of myself naked to these men and they did the same, sometimes on webcam.
Echoing what others have said that this makes me worry about my dd and her going through the same stuff. I'm just going to make sure I keep an eye on her and that I'm really honest about stuff so that she knows when it's wrong, unlike me when I was the age I was!
