I'm a new member and I just wanted to see if anyone could help me.
I was raped several years ago and ever since I have had trouble relating to men in any way. About 1 year ago I met a man who I really felt was a friend, we used to chat for hours and he made me feel worthy and safe.
However recently he has become frustrated with my inability to really trust him. I wont be alone with him and I wont let him touch me...And he has just told me we can;t be friends without trust.
I feel so bad that I can't trust him, what can I do to make myself show these signs of trust that he wants?
