Is it normal that i am scared to have a boyfriend because i was raped?

Last summer I thought I was in love with my boyfriend, until he raped me. Brutally, and violently. It's been about a year since then and this guy i know, and really like asked me out. I rejected because I'm still traumatized from what happened last summer. Is that normal? Or just pathetic?

    It's normal, and it's tragic, but I hope you can at least be friends with this nice guy. At least let him know that you like him back, and that your reason for rejecting him is not because you don't like him.

    Being raped is awful (I speak with experiance). But, you should know that not all boys are like that! Maybe, become friends with the boy. Later, you can tell him why you said no. Stay strong!

    Omg u girl break my break my heart, I have had one friend that this same (she was 13) has happend too and it Pisses me off so bad i want to cripple that bastard for life, just so he never forgets that he is human scum and a waste of a life.

    And to another friend too, i wrote a comment on another post about it, plz read it if it helps. Its on the second to late page on my "comment" section in my profile. the title is obvious and maybe it would help reading that story and my and other comment on it.

    Oh and let the other guy have a chance, and if he seems like he is a great guy, then maybe u can confine to him what happened to you. If he is anyone worthy of being called a man, and a human being, then he should feel compelled to care and protect you. Which would be nice right??

    And post on here too, some/most I thing are act least trying to help and give good advice
