    Default Was I Raped?

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Texas

    Well I have a question, this past march a guy liked me and he came to visit me at work and stuff and one night tried to kiss me but i moved away a week later i guess we were friends and we hungout at his house. He is 25 and I was 17 at the time. He picked me up and took me upstairs and i said NO that i didn't want to do that because I was a virgin and i was scared out of my mind. That next friday we went to the movies and after that went back to his house and again he lead me upstairs he started taking my clothes off and i didn't know what to do so i just let him. I didn't want to have sex with him i told him No the last time so this time was no different except he pulled down my pants tore my zipper in the process and he had sex with me.... He took my virginity. While he was doing what you know they do I started crying and I felt awful. He didn't see me cry. After it was all over I put on my clothes an went to the bathroom i looked into the mirror and felt horrible. I felt gross used. Was I raped he is 8yrs older than me how could he do this to me and it turns out that he is sckitoprenic and now I'm terrified he keeps calling my house and Im so scared. I haven't told my mom that he had sex with me but I have told her who he is and stuff. But I want to file charges but its been about 2months and Im now 18 what should i do was it statutory rape?? Or was it ok for him to do what he did?

    Of course it was not okay for him to do that. You said NO!! No means No wether you said it once or not. He should've known better. I don't know if it's too late to report it but I would, and you should talk to your mother about it. It may not heal you but it will make you feel better knowing your mother is there for you. Yet, I don't know what kind of relationship you and your mother have, but if it was me I would tell my mom. My mother is my best friend. She knows everything about me and everything that goes on in my life. You shouldn't be afraid to tell your mother anything at all. That's your mom and I know she'll help you get through it. It's not your fault he did this to you.

    Well, not exactly. She said:

    (Emphasis supplied.)

    The age of consent is 17 years of age in Texas.

    Yeah, but who knows what was going through her mind. She was probably terrified to do anything......it could've set him off. None of us will know because it was not us that was in that situation.

    I don't believe it's her fault, but maybe she shouldn't have went back to his house the second time, but when you're a teen....you don't think wisely!

    Where I agree there was no actual consent and arguement can be made there was implied consent when the young lady did not stop him the second time.

    It's the law.

    The law is not based on hormones and feelings. You'll need to reference the penal code.
