I am in my early 30′s, and my daughter and I have been staying with my mom and step father since my husband & I divorced a few years ago. I have grown increasingly worried about the interaction between my step dad and I. He would rub my back a lot, which seemed innocent enough at the time, but then progressed to him rubbing my butt, my inner upper thigh, and touching/squeezing my breasts. I have told him on multiple occasions that I was uncomfortable with this and it stopped for a while, but would inevitably happen again. I had mentioned it to my mom, but she kind of brushed it off. I guess recently he admitted to her what had happened, but he made it sound as if it were a mutual thing instead of him touching me inappropriately and me telling him to stop. Now they are both acting as if it’s my fault, & that I provoked him. I don’t wear revealing clothing or act in a way that should give people the wrong idea. I am actually quite uncomfortable around most men in general and try to avoid interaction with them if possible. Is this considered sexual abuse? Is it my fault? What should I do?
