I Feel Invisible Sometimes

I Love Being Invisible, Really!

By: ForgottenMuse
Written on January 12th, 2012
It makes me feel safe. After two attempted sexual assaults and one full blown rape, I enjoy not having men stare at me or hit on me. I like feeling unnoticed as I go about my day. The days where I am not invisible tend to be the ones I struggle with.

    This is heart breaking for you to have been treated that way i wish i could just turn back the hand of the clock and indeed appear there and smash there head off there neck...is scaring but i bet you that does not change you for what you are and so don't change because of what you see or pass through.....live your life as if nothing had happen to you but always be careful of where you go and the time you go there...

    I am so sorry to hear that you went through that. I understand where you are coming from I have been sexually abused before and one of my boyfriends attempted rape. I know that every stare men give you can feel like a threat because you have been burned so many times before. I hope one day you will feel safe again. As for me I could never find it within me, whether from the abuse or just nature, to

    see men in a sexual way. I know how you feel when men stare at me I feel threatened. I am attracted to their power yet I fear it at the same time. Its like a beautiful flame that memorizes me but I remember the scar it left behind so its magnificence has faded into fear.
