UPDATE 1/6

Sorry I had to make a separate post, mine was too long to put the update there.

Thank you everyone for your advice, input, and sympathy. To those of you blaming Scott or saying that he didn’t do enough to defend himself at the time, I truly hope you never find yourself in this position. It’s SO easy to say what you would do when you aren’t faced with it in the moment. There was even one commentor who blamed me for not “knowing my partner better” or knowing something was wrong and that I must not be a very attentive partner or else I would have known and stepped in. To that, I have no response. None. But overwhelmingly I feel a tremendous amount of support here, so I think you all very much.

Scott sees a therapist once a month for some other things he’s going through, his next appointment is this Friday 1/10. He has decided that he’s going to talk to his therapist about it and go from there. He absolutely plans on confronting Victor, he’s just not sure how he’s going to go about doing it. I’m not sure if it’s his personality or because he had been through this before at a young age, but he doesn’t seem to be feeling particularly vulnerable or shaken by this experience, more just in disbelief of the outright disrespect to both relationships. He’s not afraid to talk about how he feels, especially to me, so I know if anything changes he will let me know. I will update again after Scott speaks to his therapist on Friday.

Thank you all so much for your support ❤️
