I have also been raped. I have been attracted to jerks because of father issues. What has helped me is trial and error and lots of therapy.

I am very sorry you have experienced so much trauma in your life.
I think the best thing you can do is seek counseling and don't even consider having a relationship until you have come to terms with your past.

No man or other person will ever save you.You must be self reliant and that is where therapy will help you.

If you can not afford therapy ,there are many places that have support groups and they are free.

If Charlie cannot accept what happened to you and understand why you just gave up and allowed( I know you did not allow it) this to happen,he is not a person you need in your life.At least,not at this time.

You have been abused repeatedly and the best thing for you is to be in therapy,working on healing and making yourself a self reliant individual.

Please call this number ,it is free and open 24/7 in the U.S. they can advice you on programs in your area where they have outreach programs for rape survivors.

National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) .

You have to seek treatment and get well first. Before you can even consider being in a relationship. You can't look to a relationship to "save" you or make you whole. Work on dealing with your past (lots of therapy because you've been through a lot), and once you're in a better place mentally, you will attract different people. Just know that none of this is your fault and you will need to rid yourself of anyone who places the blame upone you.

Had to spread the rep NM but I totally agree and this guy laying a guilt trip on her ,clearly does not understand the mindset of someone who has been habitually abused

After a time,you do run out of the fight to save yourself and that is a very real backlash from chronic abuse.

As previously stated you need to heal all the pain of the past before committing to any further relationship.
Learn to love and respect yourself... if you go on without healing you will continue to attract the lowest form of life who will inevidibley abuse you again, no doubt telling you that he loves you etc...

Break the chain by taking a different path this will prevent you from subconsciously attracting the same sort of man.

You are worth more than this, there will be a special person out there for you, who will love you for who you are... it's not all about sex that's just the icing on the cake with the right person.

Go seek out a counseller, get everything out in the open.. deal with it... then disgard it,it's passed, look forward not back.

Goodluck

Same here and the road I think begins with counselling
