when a man sexually assaulted me, it was a man i was close friends with, who mistook my acquaintance for reciprocated feelings. then it became hard for me to keep in contact with my family, friends, my loved ones, when worst came to worst I was all alone with my emotional state. thanks for your words, and vulnerability.

It sounds to me you are trying to impress the wrong person. A man can be strong and still give a woman the respect and love she deserves. A really smart man will take sound advice from a woman. A wise man will cherish a woman all of their days. Yes, a man and a woman, in no particular order.
