me too. Ive got myself into a situation before where i wasnt into it, but didnt have the confidence to reject someones advances and just went along with it but didnt enjoy it
In my case, I agree. It was my fault. I had thought I wanted sex because all my friends seemed to be getting off with boyfriends, but when it came to it, I wanted to back down but couldn't.
The other point I was making was that there are loads of instances of genuinely non-concentual sex that would be rightly classified as rape, that go unreported - simply because the woman knew the guy or thought it was her fault. A classic story I read recently was a woman who had gone through a 12-hour ordeal, being raped and otherwise sexually abused, in her hotel room, after agreeing to meet a guy for a drink on holiday. She never reported it because he told her he had bragged to his mates that "she was up for it" after agreeing to meet the man later. She was quite badly bruised and injured internally, but she didn't think she would be believed. Different entirely from my situation, but still relevant to the thread, I thought.
