I kind of hate my PT he reminds me of a guy I had sex with who lovebombed me and gave me trauma


Today he was late


He also touches my body which I feel like is just strange and he asked about my dating life today and asked to see what the alarms on my phone are for

    Hi @nem, thank you for making this post and for opening up about this. What you've described about how your personal trainer treats you sounds really difficult, and I get the sense he makes you feel very uncomfortable sometimes?

    Can I ask how safe you feel around this person?

    What is it like for you when he touches you or when he asked about your dating life?

    I wonder if anyone else is aware of how this personal trainer is behaving towards you, and also, whether you tend to meet with him alone 1:1, or perhaps, within a public setting such as a gym?

    We're here for you, Nem, and you're doing really well to talk about this. No one has a right to ever make you feel uncomfortable.

    If you ever wish to find out more information about support that might be available to you / to seek advice, you could explore - https://www.victimsupport.org.uk/crime-info/types-crime/sexual-harassment/.
