He calls me, constantly accuses me of cheating. In the long run, maybe this is probably best. You said yourself that you feel like a slave. Relationships aren't meant to feel that way. Learn to love yourself. Maybe talk to someone about this in person. Good luck x

He's selfish to a point to denying what happened to you. A man with integrity is not going to find a reason to suspect your story. 1 in 4 women in the US encounters sex abuse at least once in their lives. This is not something hard to believe. So does that mean a quarter of women don't find happiness again? Absolutely not! You are better off without him. You need to stop thinking because of one painful experience therefore you are not worthy of love. He probably finds this a good excuse to leave this relationship since he doesn't have anything good to offer you and he's ashamed of that. I feel that you and him come from a conservative, restrictive background. His contradiction about not caring your past and then suddenly minding you are deflowered should show you that he does not have what it takes to support you emotionally, to make you feel good about yourself. Break off the engagement. Cut him off. He's a burden to you. Then build your self esteem again. Share your story with people with similar experience and empower each other.

Dear Rubaab, First of all leave the rape out of this equation. It has nothing to do with sex. Rape is about power, not sexual pleasure.
You say you feel like a "slave" in this relationship, that's flag #1. Flag #2 is that he's calling you out of the blue from another state and accusing you of cheating just because you did not answer you cell phone. Flag #3 is that you are over 30 but sound like you are well...11 or 12. This is not an adult engagement or relationship. You are never to love anyone more than you love yourself or life - ever. It's not healthy. Is it possible for you to get professional counselling?
