Is my dad sexually abusing me?
TRIGGER WARNING!
So I just turned 13 a couple of weeks ago, and since then everyday I have this thought that maybe what my dad does isn't really ok....
Basically my dad and I spend a lot of time alone, where we cuddle and kiss and all that lovey-dovey stuff. But then he starts touching me between my legs and at first I told him to stop because it was gross but then I got used to it.
The thing is, my dad is a great person, and I love him dearly, but I've been researching on what we do and it isn't okay at all. It's hard for me to accept it though because I love my dad a lot and I don't think he really intends to hurt me.
But even if so, I've been thinking that maybe he's been sexually abusing me this whole time and I don't know what to do. I just discovered this app and I hope this is the right place to talk about this because I'm not sure... If anyone is willing to help me I'd be very glad.

Hey @SatoriParadox
Im so sorry but your thoughts that what your dad has been doing isnt right are 100 per cent correct and you shouldnt have to endure that.
Im so proud of you for sharing whats going on for you here. It can be so confusing to say the least when someone who is meant to be looking out for you hurts you in that way and when it becomes your norm. But your right its not the norm and what he has done is wrong.
I wonder is there anyone you trust that you could tell?
Or if you would consider ringing a heline to discuss whats going on for you and your options in order to become safe?

Because you deserve to be safe and no one has a right to tough any child (young person) in that way.
