Naturally, that had to be a very traumatic experience. And I think it makes a world of differenc whether or not your current male friend was even in the picture when that event occurred. I'm a male, and I can tell you that practically ALL of us would never permit something like that to happen, if we could do anything to prevent it. Similar to funerals, there is nothing we can say or do to reduce a survivor's great feeling of loss. But since it eventually happens to all of us, the period of mourning should not last the rest of our lives.
If your current male friend was NOT in the picture when this happened to you, if he's a good person he will keep that in mind and go at a slower pace with you until you're certain he has earned your full trust. No, I can't say that I know it's like to be raped. But, I think all of us know how to let water go under the bridge and move farther downstream. Many people have experienced a touch of food poisoning, but I doubt that any of us have eliminated eating out at restaurants.
