Something has just this second happened with Dp, I don't know how I feel (sex related)

I've just come upstairs, I'm actually shaking and crying but I don't know if I'm overreacting or not.

And I'm really sorry but I have to describe certain sexual acts briefly or this post won't make sense (I've seen trigger warnings on here before but don't know how to do them, sorry)

I was downstairs with dp after just managing to get dc to sleep. He initiated sex and I was initially into it. During this time we did do anal sex and I agreed.

The dp went for a 'fag break' (it's actually an e-cig)

When he came back we started to have normal sex but then he wanted to do anal again. I said no because it was now sore.

He was behind me and kept trying.

I started to feel panicky and said no again twice and that I didn't want to. He carried on.

I completely froze, I've never felt anything like it. I wanted him to stop but I just didn't move. Didn't make any effort to push him off or get away. Just locked up.

He stopped and asked what the matter was an if I was ok after about a minute. I started shaking and crying.

He said sorry and that I had only said no quietly. I didn't answer and he said he was really sorry, now knew where the line was and would never do it again.

Then he said 'I'm not going to prison now am I? Was that rape?'

I just said 'don't worry I'm not going to call the police on you' and came upstairs.

I can see in my phone that he has text a few times saying 'I love you' while I've been writing this message.

One half of me wants to cuddle him and pretend it didn't happen, the other half feels like screaming and throwing him out and never looking at him again.

Am I overreacting? He says it's just a mistake but I feel so wrong about it.

Hi Azerothian I've been lurking on your thread since the beginning and just want to echo feelings of how amazingly well you have handled all this and feel so proud of you for standing up to this abuser. Flowers

Also have a playlist suggestion - Jar of Hearts by Christina Perri. They've just played it on the radio and hearing it again reminded me of my own situation 5 years ago. Nowhere near as horrific as yours but gas-lighting and emotional/psychological abuse for 8 years.
I got out too.

Now they're playing Van Morrison 'Bright side of the road' another brilliant one for your playlist

TatterdemalionAspie · 24/08/2017 10:42

Azerothian I hope you're ok. Flowers Have been lurking on this thread throughout - didn't contribute because you were getting such good advice from people who had been through it, but just want to send you good wishes and continued strength and determination.

So sorry op I posted on here by mistake, I have been following your story from the beginning.
I'm so pleased that you've had the inner strength to reach out for help.
Like so many following your story I too am a survivor of DV and psychological manipulation. I didn't escape soon enough and my adult children are still paying the price thirty years later.

Has anyone heard anything from the OP in the last week? I'm worried she hasn't posted for a while but perhaps she's just doing PMs with people.

HappylandToysEverywhere · 29/08/2017 04:32

Oh no.... Confused

elfies · 29/08/2017 05:38

Perhaps no access to the internet , or even no available laptop

HettySunshine · 29/08/2017 10:56

I'm worrying too. I keep checking back in hoping she'll have posted. I hope everything's okay.

cailisto · 29/08/2017 20:28

I'm concerned too. Really hope she's ok x

Lunde · 29/08/2017 20:55

Hope you are doing OK?

IndieRar · 29/08/2017 21:05

Perhaps she has decided to press charges and needs this thread for evidence and to refer to but can't post anything further in case of complicating the process or nullifying this as evidence. Therefore it has to stay live but she can't update until afterwards. That's what I hope anyway.

SamoyedSam · 30/08/2017 11:26

Just RTFT....so many emotions: horror at what @Azerothian has been through; complete respect for (and awe of) her bravery, and that of other posters who have shared similar stories; utter disgust at the actions of her ex-partner (and the dumb-fuck-witted words from the minority-rape-apologists on here); respect for all those who have supported Azero and others on here....
But at the end now I'm just really worried because of the silence over the last few days. I hope to fuck that IndieRar's theory abut evidence is right and that you are OK, OP Sad Flowers
