Gentlemen, I really need your advice. I am a young female (24), and I lied about being raped when I was 15. I hate myself for it. I almost sent an innocent man to jail. Right now, I’m feeling suicidal over the guilt. I was in a year relationship and we broke up. He knew fully what I did, and accepted me. I was always afraid no man would want to have s** or marry me if he knew. But this guy seemed like he loved me despite my past mistake. But when we broke up, he hit me across the face and said the only reason he stayed for a year was for the “free s**”. I thought one day he would propose to me. I have very low self esteem right now, and guys, do you think I deserve what my boyfriend did to me? Right now, I’m just afraid of men and relationships and I don’t want to be. I feel used by him and think he’s the only type of man I could get because I lied about being raped when I wasn’t. I want to cry right now. Guys, please tell me I’m wrong and please be kind. My eyes hurt too badly from crying. Maybe I just don’t deserve a loving boyfriend.
