I personally think that person just might be looking for the proverbial pat on the back. Perhaps this person craves attention, and positive reinforcement?
I'm a moderate who's liberal on some things and conservative on others, but regardless it's shitty victim blaming to accuse a rape victim/survivor of lying. I'm truly sorry this initial person wasn't there for you, but, and I hope you don't mind if I say this, I certainly hope you unfriended the person who accused you of lying!
The accusation wasn't made on facebook but in person in a group of people in public; the irony is that he WAS there for me after I was raped nearly 5 years ago and was my main support person but something weird has happened in his brain to accuse me of lying so many years later. If he'd been a facebook friend I certainly would've unfriended him.
You bet, and now when he sees me he pretends nothing has happened. This is the person I asked about a few weeks back as possibly drug affected, but he seems ok now, as I said, as if nothing happened.
I was intending to go to the same venue tonight but decided not to because I don't trust myself to confront him and/or mutual friends & acquaintances who may also be able to pretend nothing happened - I just cannot pretend like that
I can relate. I can be pretty impulsive about confronting people myself. I think acting all nonchalant about everything would be what would set me off.
It is normal I'm sick of internet activists?

I would certainly unfriend and possibly block the person on social media who falsely accused me of lying about a traumatic rape.
Who is "that person"?
