Original Story
I was a college junior at a conference associated with my major. I had been uncomfortable with a guy that was there but never thought anything like this would ever happen. We all went put for dinner and before dinner he had had a few shots. By the time we got to dinner it was clear that he was under the influence but I tried my best to keep a distance. We then as we always did went to {~location~} and took group photos in the photo booth. Here things started to change. It was here that he decided to grab my butt and slide his hand forward continuing to grab onto my private areas. I thought he just did it to me until I got back to my hotel room and learned he brushed someone else’s butt as well. It was in our hotel room we were invited to the guys room to hang out. I was nervous but thought I would be safe with others around. I was very wrong. In that hotel room things got even worse. He continued to push me over and was grabbing my breast in front of everyone. I was very uncomfortable and felt gross being in my own skin. I was embarrassed for anyone to know what had happened to me so I thought I would be ok as long as no one knows. Little did I know when I got back on campus that week everyone in our grade would know what happens. I was embarrassed going to class having to see him everyday. I finally told someone thinking everything would be ok then. While I had her support for a while he continued to threaten me and he ended up making himself out as the victim in the situation. I felt lost and confused with no recourse when I tried explaining what happened to me the people who were supposed to protect me at my school turned a blind eye to everything. I was stuck in class with him until I graduated this week having to have up close interactions with him. I was not supported by my school and was left alone and afraid to finish my education just wanting to leave and move on. The school of my dreams had become a nightmare.
