Hey guys. I'm 21.

Initially, I was waiting to save my virginity until marriage. But I went through a dark, stressful period of my life and I had casual sex with a man I don't really know. I spent many of my years isolated, shy, so I am as naïve and "innocent" as you can get.

I never intended to have sex, I told him that. He said he wouldn't have sex with me. I never gave him actual consent, but then he went inside me. It's my fault, I believe, because I got onto his bed naked and I gave in.

I feel robbed somehow. I don't want to do something like this ever again. I also don't want to date or even give a man the chance to talk to me now.

How do we move forwards from this? Most stupid question is, will a man ever love me? I don't know how to forgive myself after what I've done.
