Was I sexually harassed or sexually assaulted?!


Question: Was I sexually harassed or sexually assaulted?
A few weeks ago I was on a date and when I got to my dates' house to drop him off I got out of the car to say goodbye. He started kissing me and I kissed him back but then he put his hand on my chest, I pushed his hand away, but then he put his hand up my shirt and into my bra. I tried to push him away from me, but I couldn't. Then he put his hand up my skirt, I tried to push him away again and he turned me so that my back was up against my car, I pushed at him again and he stopped. He opened the back door of my car and said that he needed to talk to me, I was an idiot and got into the back like he wanted. I don't remember how it happened, but I ended up on my back and he was on top of me putting his hand up my shirt into my bra and then up my skirt. He asked me if I was alright and I couldn't speak. Then my sister called him to ask him where I was and he got off of me. I just don't know if this was harassment or assault. Any help is appreciated. Thank you very much.

That was deifintely assault. Even though you did go on and date with him and got back in the car, he did things that you obviously showed you didn't want done. That perv needs to be taken care of so he doesn't do it again! Sexual harrassment would be extreme unwanted sexual comments, innuendo, attention etc. Up to showing you things you didn't want to see. As soon as he touches you...it's harrassment. Especially with that kind of force. For you safety and othes, file a report with the police!



How many times did you have to tell him "Stop" he assaulted you and after you told him stop he continue to harrras you sexually.there are some men t.hat think that because you go on a date or kiss they think they own you. Check him out wiith the police I bet you he has a record. You are very lucky there are others that don't live to talk about it



weather you wanted it at first or not, it still doesn't give him right to do that.
if you said no then it means no.
so this means you were sexually assaulted.

being harassed is more like having someone call you names and stuff, assault is more unwanted physical touching.



its both. but did u actually tell him no stop i dont want to do this? he may not of even realized u were pushing him away u hve to actually tell him NO. or STOP. if u try and do anything about it he'll say u didnt say anything to stop him.. but if u DO go back out with him tell him straight up whats ok and whats not. and remember nxt time use ur words!!



All this time you never said stop? No? Don't? Help?
U should have punch him in the face or say something?
# 2. After all that u get in the car with him? Wtf?
If this ever happens again you better do something about it.
Because u could have been raped if your sister didn't come out side



Sounds like sexual assault.

you were DEFINITELY sexually assaulted. Go to the police and report it, they can help you with advice for the next steps, e.g. lawyers, etc

common knowledge



What?
It all depends if you said no, and if you wanted it or not.
If you didn't want it, then it was probably sexual harassment.



That is sexual assult because he physically touched you :-/
But you can still sue him and if you feel sad or scarred you can always get a therapist
