Photos

[lostmymind20]

Some of you may remember I posted about nonconsensual intimate photos being taken of me on Friday afternoon. Unfortunately MNHQ took it down as they didn't think it was real, unfortunately for me, it is. They've now reinstated my account.

Thank you for everyone who commented. We are currently in counselling, and even the counsellor downplayed how serious it was in our session this week. Being stuck here with (D)H who tells me I shouldn't be as bothered about it, and then the counsellor not taking it as seriously as I thought he should have done, I was starting to wonder if I had been overreacting.

It does not matter in this instance what you did or did not do with the other person. You were sleeping and vulnerable. Your DH chose to creep about in the night and take intimate photos of your vagina. You did not consent to this. This is far from normal behaviour. It is violation of you and your trust, you should be able to sleep in your own bed feeling safe. I find it very disturbing and would be wounder what else he's been doing. Or if it would esculate to touching.
I would not be bothering with any more counselling for me the marriage would be over. Get a lock for your bedroom door until you can get rid of him.
Also report the counsellor they should not be down playing this behaviour.
