Is this considered rape?!


Question: Is this considered rape?
At the end of 2010, my boyfriend and I began to become intimate but I didn't want to. I kept telling him no but he kept trying to force me into it and saying things like "you know you want it". It made me uncomfortable but after a while I just gave in and let him have his way. Since then things haven't been the same between us. It's all my fault that he didn't listen. I wasn't forceful enough when I was telling him no.

Is that considered rape?

Also, for the record, I am not trying to "claim rape" or anything of that nature. (<-- that was an example of one of the narrow-minded and mocking responses I got the last time I asked this question in another category.) I am simply trying to figure out exactly what to call that as it was not consensual.

Sorry hun, but thats considered rape. If a woman says "No" and the guy pressures it then yes it is rape, cause u didn't want to do it in the 1st place. Girl, its not ur fault and don't beat urself up for ur boyfriend being a jerk. He should have respected ur wishes. Remember there are different types of rape. It can be done with mental coercion or physical attack or a combo of the two. In ur case it seems more like a mental. Do u get what I'm saying? Like he used manipulation to put the idea of sex into ur head. Honestly, any relationship that has any form of abuse or sexual abuse is unhealthy. I don't want to tell u what to do, but maybe u should leave him and tell him why if u don't want to "Claim rape". I mean I just see this going down a very unhealthy path. It's obvious what he did is REALLY affecting you.

Um, THAT'S NOT RAPE!! It was consensual even if you said NO AT FIRST because you eventually "Gave in and LET him have his way". . <---- Your Words. KEY WORD IN YOUR SENTENCE IS LET! . If you would have kept saying no and WOULDN'T HAVE GAVE IN, It would be considered as rape.

Common sense.



Yes it is, if he forced him self sexually on you and you weren't ready it's considered rape. You may not want to consider it rape but if he does this continuously or even now, you should report him into the police.

He forced himself sexually upon you. That's sexual assault. Rape.

If you werent up for it, then its considerd rape, but its not rape unless both of you are for it!



thats not rape thats a horny boyfriend using you to get sex.



bottom line: if u said no, and he continued, its rape.



Thats a rape case!! You need to file a police report a.s.a.p before he pressures more women into having sex.



I would definitely tell someone.
