did this happen in florida?

You need to be a good friend and tell her parents. You both probably don't have any idea how much that is going to change her forever and she needs to seek help from her parents and a professional to coach her through it. Good luck and I am sorry.

you need to convince your friend that she needs to tell her parents and go to the police. He should PAY for what he did. We need to keep these creeps off the street before it happens again. Also you should get some info on RAPE (like hand outs) it will most likely answer her questions and reassure her and validate her feelings. She could have long term problems because of this scum bag.

I wouldn't be worrying about if her parents will find out because you need to tell her parents or go with her so she can tell them. Somehow she needs to get the help she needs or it will be more damaging than it already is in the long-run.

4 months is probibly too long a wait for the cops to be able or want to do something about this, unless their were witnesses. She definatly needs therapy.

It would definitely be much better if you convince her, rather than go against her wishes - that might itself cause problems for her.

No matter what she thinks her parents have to know. She can't deal with this alone. Yes your there but she needs advice and guidence. Talk to her and try to get her to tell her parents. And I'm proud of you for trying to find out what you think would be best for her.

He didn't beat, threaten, or impregnate her? Does rape really apply?

Your friend needs HELP and NOW .... The best thing that you can do as a friend is to go to the POLICE and / or her parents ... She needs medical attention and counseling ASAP ... Do this just as soon as possible ...

Sounds like it might have be consentual but she changed her mind afterward.

Contact or help her make contact with an anonymous rape victim support group. Point at some existing information. You could also make an anonymous report by the police. 1) "On this website you will find information about rape and sexual violence and details of your nearest Rape Crisis Centre if you need support.

Most people do come to terms with their experience in time, especially if they get support and understanding. Friends and family can be very helpful. But many people find it easier to speak to someone they don't know, and who understands what they have been through. A few facts There is a myth that only strangers carry out sexual attacks. But many assaults are committed by someone the woman knows, including partners, and close friends. Whoever the attacker was, the important thing to remember is that it is not your fault."
