Question
What if i ran away from home with a guy i really loved or i thought that i loved and he took me to a apartment and asked me if i wanted to have sex with him and i said no and he did it anyway? Is that Called rape?

Answer
Hi Cindy.

Anytime, that you say NO, and are forced to have sexual intercourse against your will, it is rape.

If this has happened to you Cindy, and you wish to discuss this with me, I am willing to do so in private, since this is a sensative issue.

If you choose not to discuss this, my advice to you is to get to your doctor, explain the situation. Ask to be tested for all STD's, and get a clean bill of health.

Hope this was of some help to you ..
