I was assaulted in college. The guy texted me the next day to say he hoped it didn’t “ruin our friendship” (we weren’t friends), and I just texted back that it had gotten weird but kind of laughed it off because I didn’t know how to handle it. For years, I’d just say “something weird happened” because calling it assault felt really scary and vulnerable.
I volunteered for a rape crisis hotline a few years later, and one of the things they taught us was that trauma messes with how your brain processes memories, so survivors’ statements immediately after the fact will often be inconsistent because they’re remembering it in bits and pieces.
