What He Did To Me
He touched me.
He grabbed me.
He poked me.
He said terrible things.
He told me to date him, but only if I did something for him.
This is absolutely not OK.
This is harassment.
I will not accept this.
He has a girlfriend.
I demand respect.
He didn't listen to me.
I was afraid.
What can you do when an older boy just doesn't listen?
This is what he did to me.
This is what he did that scarred me, that scared me, that broke me.
I was told it was my fault.
"You led him on.
You weren't strict enough with him.
You let him do this.
You didn't say no."
I did say no.
I said no so many times.
This is not OK.
This is not my fault.
