Without Consent

This is something most people don’t know except for my parents. When I was younger and I was with THEM they had family come over. They were relatives and they had a son when he was a teen. I remember everyone was getting ready to sleep and me and my sister were sleeping on the couch. We turned into a bed. We fell asleep watching something and the guy that was staying out there with us stayed on the other couch. But all the sudden I open my eyes and he’s just standing in the doorway looking out and I see him walking towards the bed. He gets behind me and he tries touching me and I sit up and pull away but he wouldn’t stop. So I got up and went to the bathroom and acted like I had to go. But I went back because my sister was still there. When I got back he wasn’t on the bed anymore he moved to the couch. Once I got back in bed I remember him coming back and said that if I got up he’d do something to my sister. So of course I did as I was told. That morning I tried to tell HER but all she said was that I was dreaming. She said that he was stressed and he wouldn’t do something like that. I was heartbroken but of course I also wasn’t surprised that SHE didn’t believe me. But that was also the day I gave up on asking for help. If this happens to you, don’t give up asking for help. The situation I was in wasn’t good or safe. If you are in a similar situation ask someone you trust. I’m not saying all this to make anyone feel bad, that’s the last thing I want. I’m honestly not 100% comfortable doing this and putting my private life out there but I hope that me sharing my story will get someone to open up about theirs and it’ll help someone else.
