I am 35 years old, when I was 14, I was raped. I never told anyone & I am really ashamed of it. I never dated as a teenager, as all of my other gf's. I did marry the first boy I ever dated at the age of 19 & we had a son together. I divorced him 10 years ago because he cheated. I tried to date originally, but I had a hard time dealing w/ men, because I don't trust them. I haven't dated anyone for 8 years now, I've only ever had one boyfriend in my life & I don't really have any experience w/men. People always give me grief because they tell me that they think that I am too pretty to be alone especially because my life is very "together" and the only thing that is missing is a man. I like men, but I'm kind of afraid of them -- all of the adult men who have been close to me in my life have hurt me. My son & I are very close, but he's a young child so I guess that this is different for me. Should I change my life & make efforts to trust a man or should I keep my life as it is?
