Hi everyone. Sorry for the TMI. But I am 31 ones year old. When I was around 7 there was this man that used to come to my parents house. And he used to always come up the stairs with me and my brother (3 years older than me) and he used to pretend to play a game with me and my brother and told him to hide behind the curtains and he used to do sexual acts on me. I have not told anyone of my family to this day. Or unless they know and think I don’t remember. I remember as a child being really confused and I think he even tried to get me and my brother to kiss. It has fucked me up to this day. And i believe it’s why I’ll never trust men. Aibu in its why I never trust men.

You need to report this to the Police even after all this time. There are angencies to support and help you. My heart really goes out to you.

Thank you. I honestly think it’s why I can’t trust men. Can’t go in taxis alone. Any relationship I have I think they are absolute cunts even for no reason

Op you need help.
You were abused by this man. Who also groomed your parents into trusting him.

Only you can decide if you want to report and go thought police.
But you can still access support.

@tami345 im so sorry this happened to you.

You need to report this to the police, once reported they will be able to get you in touch with the right organisation to help you with therapy.

What this man did wasn’t ok and he may still be doing it to other children and by reporting him you may encourage other victims to come forward and hopefully he’ll end up in prison.
