2 years back a guy hit me cos I wouldn’t have sex with him i had known the guy for 7 years and had been saying no to him all that time when I opened a case against him so many of our mutual friends(all males) called me telling me to drop the case cos he wasn’t coping 💋💋

Even the doctor who helped me said I should let it go even as he was examining my fractured cheek and swollen jaw. The female “friend” I was with refused to write a affidavit to help my case(trash humans) I don’t know why I’m telling y’all this but never be quite ever ever
