Message to a Survivor

I know your sense of safety and trust has been damaged or revoked from. you. You deserve to experience true lobe, safety, and trust. I believe you are very strong and capable, keep on making waves in your own joinery of life. Remember you cn choose to heal from the pain, but suffering is not required. You are valid and heard, I will pray for you to receive all the love, healing, and guidance that you deserve. Love, Initials

I met a stranger on the app Renz, an app for making friends he was around my age maybe a year younger. I didn't even like him as a person very much, likely because my intuition knew he was actually a bad person. I probably should not have gotten his number, snapchat, and instagram. However, it is not my fault I was trying to just make friends. He was really very dry of a talker, conversations were short, boring, never got to get to know each other through snapchats off him skateboarding and going to amusement parks. He mostly acted regularly, but I vaguely recall now that he made a sexual innuendo that I should have taken as a red flag and not forgiven him for. Anyways, today I opened snapchat to check my messages and was surprised and equally disturbed to see a video of him stroking his penis with flash on in the dark. I was disgusted, disturbed, felt take advantage of in a way I never thought that I would be and certainly never wanted to. In the moment I felt scarred, I thought maybe it was a porn video he found online, yet that still would not make it okay. Its was inexcusable and shameful behavior. He should be ashamed and disgusted by his display of unconsented sexual harassment. This will scar me for life to some degree, luckily I never met this horrible person, but it made me even more wary of guys. Please be careful and lets fight to minimize sexual violence, harassment and assault as much as possible! NO ONE DESERVES TO EXPERIENCE SEXUAL HARASSMENT OR ASSAULT.
