I just joined. My name is beth. I'm 18 years old and i was raped by my fiance last year when i was 17. I havn't told not one person about it and i am still with him. He said sorry, and hes changed a lot. But i do need to talk to people about it because it does effect everything...Its hard to be alone with people and its affecting my relationship with him...i guess i really need someone to talk to...and i want to know if i did go to a counsler...would they have to tell the police cuz thats my worst fear...expecially since their are lots of cases where the courts don't believe the girls and they get put in jail...

Talking with any counselor would be beneficial. They can not tell police unless your life is in danger or you are going to hurt someone. Other than that they can suggest you do but it is your choice. When my counselor suggested it to me I told her that it was not something that I was going to do and she respected my decision.
