This was like five years ago, but still something that haunts me and makes it hard to be around men, especially strangers.

I was in a college prep class with a whole bunch of kids at a local community college, I didn’t know any of them so when they had us group up I got put in a group with these twin boys. On was sitting next to me and the other in front of us paying no attention. I was working on the paper and he kept getting closer acting like he was trying to just see what I was doing and then I felt his hand running up my thigh until he was touching me (over my pants but still) I didn’t say anything or do anything, I just kinda froze. He dropped like a few seconds later because we changed what we were doing in class. I tried telling people what happened, but always got shut down. I remember telling my mom that day that I didn’t want to go anymore because this boy touched me and she said that’s what boys do and just ignore it. I had to see him for the rest of they year but always kept my distance. What makes it worse is he ended up dating a girl I know and I never had the nerve to tell her what happened and I just pray and hope he never did anything to her.
