Sexual abused by nephew as a kid.

...See more Hi, okay.. I'm 32 yrs, male, and when I was 8 my older nephew started to sexual abuse me. He forced himself on to me saying that it was totally normal, but if I didn't want others to know it could be our 'little secret'. And me as an 8 year old boy believed him. I mean he is family right, family wouldn't lie or hurt someone who is family. And I did was confused by it, and didn't want anyone to know I just kept my mouth shut. After that day, we would have family days with the whole family. Where I knew, he would be there too. And sure thing, during every special family day, family weekend, family vacation there he was. Ready to seperate me so he could abuse me again... This would continue till I was 15 yrs old. Then he wouldn't, as he quote "have the urge to do it anymore". Now, 17 yrs later, I still never told anyone this before. Doubting my sexuality (Am I bi-sexual because I am or because of him). Can't get close to people. Can't open up. Prefer to be alone. Taking it's toll now on my mental health and physical health. Don't know what to do next. Sorry to have bothered with all of this.
