Well, yeah. It actually does make sense. When you try to bury your feelings for decades, then your abuser suddenly becomes omnipresent, of course those bad memories are going to come flooding back.

If she was raped/harassed/assaulted, why would she "bury" those feelings? Why not go to the proper authorities immediately? Or, at the very least, within weeks or months after the traumatic experience?

Yeah yeah, I understand that sometimes it takes a while to build up the courage to confront your attacker.....but 35 years??? And that's assuming he was even an "attacker" vs. some horny young guy that maybe made her feel a little 'awkward' at one time at a party. It's not like he's a fucking RAPIST or something.

Waiting 35 years and THEN deciding to go public....is shady as hell.

And if him running for congress is what "set her off"....then I think jealousy could be a bigger factor than actual trauma.

Like I said....it just doesn't add up.

It shouldn't scare you unless you've done something bad.

I know I haven't done anything bad. But the rest of the world doesn't know that. We live in a time where there is absolutely NOTHING keeping a bitter ex from making terrible claims about you on social media. It could happen to any of us at any time. The only difference is that most of us aren't running for Congress right now, or have a new Hollywood movie coming out, etc.

But if I were to suddenly make it big as some kind of movie director....you can bet your ass there would be legions of people who make it their goal in life to sift through ALL my social media from the past several years....to take ANY little post out of context and make me look like Hitler. Even if that required DOCTORING posts and making up stuff entirely from thin air.

And a bitter exgirlfriend who cheated on ME......but she is suddenly jealous to see my success and the knowledge that she is the one who messed it all up, but she is too proud to blame herself, so she goes for my carotid artery by claiming I made her feel uncomfortable on a camping trip or some shit, and paints me as some kind of pseudo-rapist with no factual evidence of any kind.

And, of course, the Left-leaning media jumps all over it.

And my life is ruined.

For nothing.

So yeah. I think all men are allowed to be a little afraid right now.
