I've gone over this story so many times its not healthy.
They were working together and this is how they knew each other. One day, before xmas last year she get all teary and upset and told me at her xmas do she kissed him. she's only been working there a few months and it was clear he was giving her a little too much attention from what she told me in conversation etc. I accepted it was a one off as when I picked her up that night she was pretty legless.
A month later, she admitted there was more to it than a kiss. We had the usual fall out etc and she was gonna get her stuff and leave. I wouldn't let her. I couldn't believe she would throw it away like that. We have something great, we're not just some convenient couple, this is full blown love. She's very submissive as it is. If im not careful she bends over backwards to do anything for me and doesn't give me a hard time for being lazy etc. Her world revolves around me you could say.
Over the past 9 months since she told me that, things in general went downhill. I spent all that time dwelling on it, wondering how she could have done it. I was in her face all the time, pushing for answers, but she could never give me one. It wasn't to get at me, wasn't for attention, it didn't make much sense. Over this time, she got very ill. She lost loads of weight a receded into her shell quite a bit. It got to the point where she went to the doctors and was signed off work. All this time she was still working with this guy, who happens to be a long time highly regarded member of staff whereas my girlfriend had only been there for less than a year. IT was clear she was hiding something and after a but of a push from me she broke down and admitted the real truth.
Apart from going straight to the police where she was persuaded not to bother. Sadly for me this wasn't enough, I had to find out what really happened and I can't let someone get away with this. I tracked down his girlfriend on facebook after Amanda told me her name and told her what I had been told. Through this he called me, from a blocked number (I never trust people who block their numbers) but I suppose he was trying to avoid the harassment. He was a self-righteous little *****, to put it mildly and I got nothing from the conversation but an instant dislike for him. Later on I drove to his workplace and parked next to his car and waited for him to finish work and asked him outright, he just said things along the lines of "I could get it if I wanted, don't have any problems there mate" and I couldn't stomach being near him. I wanted to rip his throat out, but Im better than that and I just drove away and that was the last of it until last night when I drunkenly contacted his other half again and he called me back and started the abuse. Being a bit drunk I gave it back, but I never threatened him once but he threatened me about knowing XYZ and that he'll kick my backside etc, but in a very playground and childish manner. It was quite clear he had ADD to be 23 and giving childish insults like that.
There is nothing I can find to ascertain 100% what happened. His workplace is a fairly close knit bunch of people and they seem to be helping him cover his tracks so to speak.
When she told me I never got any details but she decided to leave work and move on, for us. I advised she might want to report him to work too, and while I was at work she started writing a resignation letter and letter of complaint. This is where I found out the details as she sent me this document to go over/print but along the way I think she was just using it to tell me what happened. She was an awful state when I called her after reading it, and to be honest so was I. This was never sent to her workplace as the manager is one of his best friends and at the time we were still dealing with police so if it fell into his hands he would have a comeback ready etc.
Anyway, I'll leave this post with what she sent me. I know its hard to read, shes heavily dyslexic and she was a teary mess while she was writing it.
To whom it may concern,
I am writing this letter to you to day to hand in my resignation as a cruise consultant at the *********. The main reason for leaving the company is that in the last nine months a lot has happened to me, and not good stuff either.
It all started last December when I had a drunken kiss at the Christmas with a colleague. I told the member of staff that it shouldn’t have happened and that I have a partner who I love more than ever, and that we could only ever be friends and nothing more. I thought that that would be the end of it. How I was wrong, a few weeks later he asked if I would drop him off to get his car. Not a problem then he wanted to know if he could come round to talk. I told him that that’s all that would happen. So he came round we started talking, though maybe I had got through to him and we could just be friends. He had different ideas. Every time I think about what happened next I get more upset every time. There was nothing I cold have done. He was stronger than me. I was violated in my own house; afterward he just stood up and walked out like nothing had happened. I just sat there I was bleeding, it hurt like hell. I scrubbed my self so hard in the shower blaming my self for everything, I told my self so may time I must have deserved it. Again he didn’t talk to me for the next week or so. Then he said he wanted to meet. I wanted answers to why he had picked me, why he did it to me. I sat in his car and he just drove off, every time I broached the subject of where we where going or why he had done it he’d change the subject. Like it wasn’t important, I wasn’t important. The next thing I remember was on a car park and being told to get out, and not in a nice way, I new what was coming. He griped on to my wrist and took me inside. Got a key never letting go of my wrist, he dragged me upstairs. My heart racing I was terrified by this point. Over the weeks before hand since it started I’d lost so much weight I’d become ill, I couldn’t fight, I hand no energy to. Inside he told me to get undressed; at first I didn’t I just sat there. Then he told me to get undressed and get in the bed. I thought about running out of the door but he’d locked it. I sat on edge of bed where he tried to undress me for me, I was shaking like a leaf I had no where to hide no way of getting out. I sat there in my underwear then the rest I want to forget. I sat and cried my eyes out in front of him, where he tried to turn it back on me, like I was the user. I cried all the way home with my back to him. Again I’d been bleeding. Over the next few weeks he wanted me to do more. Or he’s make my life a living hell, it already was, he said he new people and who would believe me, he’s been there longer. He’d want me to go with him, when it was my lunch break I knew why. He wanted oral sex; he wanted to force it down my throat till I was nearly throwing up, I would throw up all night afterwards, it only happened a couple of times, I’d find ever way of making sure was doing something when I knew he wanted something. I felt violated, used. I felt like I’d deserved every thing that was thrown at me. I lost my confidence. Everyone I knew said the bubbly girl inside of me had gone. I became with drawn I didn’t want to go any where see any one; I wanted to curl up and die like it was a bad dream. The final straw came when last minuet the name was changed for some training. When we where due to drive back to work he said he wouldn’t drive till I’d sorted him out. I said no, I wasn’t going to go through it all again, I stuck to my guns in the end he forced me in to what he wanted with the hand on the back of my head so I couldn’t move it. Afterwards we drove back to work and he had the nerve to ask me what was up, like nothing had happened. Only last month he asked me to meet him again. I said no, never again are you going to make my life a living hell. My home life has suffered, my work has suffered, I lost my self, and the person I used to be has gone. You ever been made to feel so scared and terrified. Neither has I. hopefully I’ve come out of this a stronger person.
EDIT:
Just to make it clear, she had no real bearing to cry rape. Last night after a few drinks I was bloodthirsty, which is out of character and I hate myself this morning for getting so irate. I've never threatened this guy, I've just wanted to peruse the truth and only he can give me that peace of mind. Getting desperate, as I just want to move on. This has not only ruined her career, its had an effect on my work life too amongst a whole other bunch of personal aspects with self esteem etc. Why should I let someone seeming walk all over me, as at the end of the day im the one being hurt the most being stuck in the middle. Nobody can really help but by just telling me to move on, but seriously, if this was you could you just let it go? My girlfriend aint just some bint, we don't argue, we don't shout at each other and we don't fight over who does the washing up etc. We get on so well and love each other a whole lot, anyone can see that and its how we're know, she just wouldn't know it away like that.
