Go find another place to live.  It's obvious this person is bothering you.  If you're worried about being raped, it's a no-brainer -- LEAVE!!

First and foremost, rape is rape. There is no psychological benefit to it being a woman instead of a man. I'm not sure how old you are, but I would recommend you find a decent counseler and talk it out. There is no statute of limitations on the rape hotline, and they can recommend help for you. Some places have Rape/Spouse abuse crisis centers where people who have been through these types of ordeals can help you with the steps you need to take. The second thing I want you to know is that you did nothing wrong. There is nothing you could have done that would justify the robbing of a part of your humanity, and rape does just that. I'm not sure how the law handles something like this after a year, so I can't tell you whether you can still prosecute, you'll have to talk to your state attorney general's office.\n\nGood Luck

what i think you should do is get a good lawyer to represent you.  If you were falsely accused the police probably have no evidence of the crime.  But honestly i don't know if you will be able to sue, unless you have any visible harm, and if you do have any bumps or bruises from the arrest take pictures to present in a court. that's all i can tell you sorry if it isn't any help!

You are absolutely not responsible for your rape.  Child molesters are methodical and manipulative.  Rape is about control and violence.  You could not have made it happen if you wanted to.\n\nI'm so glad snickelfritzcje could help you.  I'm glad you're feeling stronger and that this forum enables you to be brave enough to talk about it.  I hope that you grow in confidence so that you can seek counseling.\n\nI know many of us seem stuck on that idea, but I hope you gain the courage you need to work through this with a real live person with some background and training who can give you the help you deserve.\n\nI thank God for your help and healing thus far, and I beseech Him for your continued success and healing.

That depends on what happened.  He is not a criminal or anything like that, is he?  \n\nIf he is okay, then talk to him and see what he has to say!

Dude, get a life.....If it wasn't a big enough of a deal to do it right after it happened, then I guess it wasn't a big deal at all..\n\nBut to answer your question, it depends on what act you claim they're guilty of....consult a lawyer or paralegal.

He wasn't found "guilty" technically.

I would go to the police department and file a report for date rape.  Get yourself checked.  The fact that he told you that he was going to drug you to get sex should tell you that something isn't right.\n\nAnd don't think that it was your fault.  It's not.

He raped you. I'm very sorry that happened to you. You were not able to give consent, because you were drunk. Sex without consent is rape. Read this:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape\n\nGo to the doctor or hospital, see if you can get the morning after pill to prevent pregnancy. If it's too late, then I hope you are not pregnant. Also get tested for STDs (aka STIs). You should go to the police and tell them what happened, that he raped you.\n\nThis is a VERY BAD MAN. Do not see him again!\n\nI'm not saying that it is your fault, but in the future, do not allow yourself to be in that situation. If you want to get drunk, get drunk with your girlfriends, or at home. Don't get drunk at a guy's house, it's not safe.\n\nI hope you are not pregnant, and I'm very sorry you were raped.

I know a guy who had this happen to him but by an ex-girlfriend.  He said she even had her mom, who was a nurse make up bogus documents at the hospital saying that she was examined and found to have been raped.  He said it was revenge on her part and that he never did such a thing.  I believe him because if he really did rape her, he would have never even brought it up.  I do not know the girl.  He had know reason to tell me the story other than to confide in me.  He says he hates our gov't and that it is twisted and anybody can do anything just as long as you have the right connections and the right amount of money.  I believe this too.\n\nI suggest two things.\n\n1- You get a lawyer that will represent YOU.  Do some shopping around.  I know you do not have a lot of money but find a way to get some.  Save up, beg, organize a fundraiser.  Don't steal though.  You don't need to make things worse.  Contact news stations and radio stations and talk show host.  Speak out.\n\n2- Do not give up.  Pray.  Believe in yourself and others will believe in you.  No matter what pressure they put you under, or how they try to coerce you, saying "Just admit you did it and legally, it will go easier for you.", do not do it.  It will be better if you are in the end found innocent after a long, long battle than to have everybody thinking you did it and having it on your record for years just because you were under pressure.  My friend never "admitted" and because of that it went very badly for him in jail and with probation and he did not get the priveledges the other guys did because they admitted it.  He was deemed uncooperative.  Under this kind of pressure, you might just want to make up a story just to get them off your back but with the right supports and actions, lawsuit, etc you can win and have it taken off your record.\n\nRemember.  You are the most important person in your life.  Don't ever let anybody put you down.  You have to fight for yourself.

Yes.  I wasn't raped, but I was abused sexually.  Luckily, my husband has helped me move on and my sex life is just fine!  Talking about the past and getting through it is what helped me.

The best is ask him of his trial outcomes of the past. Find out if he's a good trial lawyer. Note that a trial cost lots of money, see if you can't find a lawyer that could get u to cop a good plea. Remember...Justice isnt blind. The Jury has eyes. Also they dont have to prove w/ out a reasonable doubt that your guilty, 12 people just have to think you are. If they think you did it. You did it.

There may be an on going investigation that you are not aware of.  Please speak to the policeman that you gave the report to and ask for an update.  Sometimes what we think is a done deal, is not enough for our courts to hang someone with.  I'm glad you had the courage and fortitude to do something about it.  Good for you!

The jury will look at all of the evidence against him, and will decide if he is guilty, or not guilty..If he really didn't do the crime, the jury will see that, and will declare him not guilty..Try and make sure, he has an attorney, who will present his side of the case..Good Luck..

wether or not you want to press charges with either of these men is entirely up to you. what you need to do tho is to speak to someone who can help you deal with these experiences. If you cannot afford a therapist, or if you are young and don;t want to involve your parents in finding one, then find a free counseling service for victims of sexual violence. A couselor will provide a safe space for you to talk about what happened, a place to let out your rage, confusion, guilt, shock, etc. S/he will try to help you deal with any effects this is having on your life, such as depression, anxiety, lethargy, social withdrawal, shame,or whatever it is that you are experiencing. S/he will support you and try to give you the tools to cope with and process what happened. Organisations that offer this service will usually also be able to help you if you want to press charges - guide you through the process, prepare and support you for a possible court case. I've been through this sort of thing, I work with other's who have, and you are welcome to contact me. I wish you much strength.

Absolutely it was rape. Taking something that was not offered is wrong, he stole something from you that you did not want to give. He went ahead although you told him no and tried to push him off you. He knew it was wrong. He raped you, absolutely. The fact that you were dating does not mean he has any rights over you, he certainly did not have the right to force himself on you when you did not want to have sex with him. No means no. x
