A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

There's a girl who told me she has a secret that makes her cry every time she thinks about it. she wont tell me at all and we're going out. She's dropped a couple hints here and there but I'm confused about the whole thing.... I think she is being sexually abused by someone in her family and I told her that what I think and all she said was you keep thinking that... and she said it wasn't her dad or her stepdad so I'm not sure who it is or what exactly is going on. I was just seeing if anyone can help me out and give me some advice.

Honeygirl agony auntSometimes it is very hard to open up and tell somebody something especially if you feel that you are at fault.. maybe she feels she is guilty of something, this is why she finds it hard to tell you everything.

Be her friend and confidant and always be supportive of whatever she tells you and hopefully she will open up and tell you everything.

Just be there for her and give her support. She may know you trust her, but she may either be ashamed or scared what will happens if she says anything.

The reason she won't say anything is because she'll be terrified that she'll be judged, or that everyone will turn away from her. Watch her carefully, and maybe tell another adult that you think something is wrong (maybe your parents). You need to be careful though, because you don't know all the facts. Be there for her, and just make it known that you are there for her if she wants to talk. She sounds like she wants to open up, but doesn't know how to. So she needs to know she can trust you. But make sure that you have someone you can tell, because you won't be able to handle it by yourself. Be there, listen to her and make it known you are there for her. Hopefully, she'll open up.
