My friends dad 2


Question Posted Monday July 25 2005, 4:02 pm

Hey!
I asked you a question about my friends dad. I'm still scared and I AVOID being alone with him when I go over there. I hardly ever talk to him. He knows what he did wrong because the next day, he told me and my friend that he felt guilty and stupid and my friend said, "Why do you feel guilty and stupid?" and he didn't tell her but he looked at me because he knew that I knew what he did. I want to tell my friend that I know what he did that made him feel guilty and stupid but I have no idea what I should say or how she'll react. I don't know if she'll believe me! I doubt she will. I mean, THAT'S HER DAD! I'm just scared and confused. My mom doesn't even know. No one does except ME AND HIM! I haven't even told my sister because I don't think she'll understand. She's only 11. I hardly ever talk to my dad and he hardly ever talks to me so I don't see the use of even bothering to tell him. I take this seriously and this makes me think every day that he could have gone further and done something worse and he didn't. I was lucky. I knew I would live but right now, I don't think I WANT to. I'm so confused and scared. I don't want my friend to say, "No, my dad wouldn't do that. I don't believe you." I want to tell her but I'm JUST SO SCARED! Please help me in any way you can!

I think you should definitely tell your friend. Think of how shittty YOU feel, now imagine him doing this to SOMEONE ELSE!!!! I'm not saying that he would do such a thing, but if he could even do this ONE time to YOU, chances are it won't be his LAST time touching a child. And maybe it wasn't even his FIRST; ever think of that?? I know that sex offenders have to begin SOMEWHERE.. there has to be that FIRST VICTIM, and who knows.. it could have very well been YOU. But what if there were others BEFORE you?? And if he could so easily do this to YOU, who's to say he won't do it to SOMEONE ELSE next?? Think of how THAT child will feel?? Exactly how you're feeling, right???? And would you EVER wanna wish such a thing on another human being??? I'm positive that you wouldn't.


But if I remember correctly, you said he touched you briefly, and then stopped. Clearly he was having SOME remorse for what he had JUST done, but then he WILLINGLY went back a SECOND time; and THAT'S what's scary!!!!! He KNEW it was wrong the FIRST time, but this just WASN'T ENOUGH to satisfy him. He's sick. Purely sick.


And like I told you before, it doesn't matter WHAT your friend thinks. It doesn't matter what ANYONE thinks. THEY weren't there. THEY have NOOOOOOOO idea what happened, and to what extent it may or may not have been taken to. I DO understand that telling her this will be a huge fucking blow, but it's the God's honest truth. If she's ANY kind of a friend WHATSOEVER she will be able to sense the seriousness to this entire situation, and she will hopefully be willing to work to help you. And while it DEFINITELY WOULD be nice to have her on your side, it's NOT *NEEDED*. And ANYONE who isn't willing to believe you on this doesn't even DESERVE to be in your life....


I'm honestly unshore of what to say right now, Hun. If you ever need anything else, or feel like talking or letting something off your chest, you know you ALWAYS have me. I'll always be here for you. Be it Advicenators, email, AIM, even telephone -- I'll *ALWAYS* do everything within my possible powers to assist you. ♥ ♥ ♥
