Had my fare share too- the adult driver who's right hand always traveled from the steering wheel to my lap whenever he was driving only me anywhere, the family friend who tried to expend his teenage testosterone curiosities on me, etc.<br />I was also skinny as hell and practically a tomboy but i'd also read Everywoman and it helped me know i wasn't safe with them.<br />Of course, this is my first time of telling anyone (if you consider this telling). I couldn't bring myself to tell anyone then because i thought it was happening to me alone and it must've been because of something i was doing wrong. I can't imagine what i'd have done if any of them had raped me *shivers*<br />Parents (not just mothers), you can't be too careful.

I had an encounter like this,only the man in question was my late dad's friend and classmate, and i was fifteen and skinny as a rake,seriously,no curves to speak of! For God's sake! Of course,I didnt tell anyone,I just made absolutely sure to stay out of his way. Somehow,mumsie 'sensed' something was wrong, and 'banned' I and my little sis from going to his house. It was 6yrs later, that I had the courage to tell mumsie,guess her reply:" of course,i noticed something was wrong,i dont trust that man!" So I was lucky she noticed,what if she had trusted him,or didnt notice something was up? I guess its up to us mothers to hammer it down our kids throat that such behavior from 'uncles' is abnormal and should be reported asap.
