I remember being 17 and how naive I was. Don't ever think that that trash person's decision was your fault.

Thank you for still being here.

[Tesko]

Wow, the amount of victim blaming in the comments is disturbing.

I'm glad your life turned around for the better, it surely must be inspiring for all the women you help ❤
Though it does suck that he never was caught.

[GiveHerFlowers]

These comments…wow. She is sharing her story and being vulnerable so others can learn and understand her experience. Not so everyone can judge PAST decisions she has worked thru. No matter what, it was not her fault. I firmly want to validate that. Thank you for sharing your story. As a female veteran myself, I can fully relate to much. Sending love your way❤

[Ace-.MRD-S]

You’re so beautiful & so strong I’m so sorry this happened to you you did not deserve this it was definitely not your fault .. I’m so angry how the police didn’t find him

[relatableangel]

These comments are disgusting….No matter what a woman does, it’s never her fault that she gets attacked. A lot of people who are commenting rude stuff have probably have never been in the situation, therefore, they would never know how to handle it. All of my support goes to this woman I am so sorry that this happened to you ❤️

[breezystl]

For all the victim blamers in the comments:
She was 17. She made one bad decision. She assumed he was just going to use the bathroom amd had good intentions. When you're that young, and maybe haven't had to learn street smarts yet, you can still be naïve about things like that. She was probably trying to be kind by letting him use the bathroom. And trust me, she's probably hated herself and blamed herself for that decision ever since. So don't add to the blame and pain.

I absolutely remember being a teenager…it’s by the GRACE OF GOD that some of us are still living without a scratch on us!!! I’m so happy for this baby…that she found her happiness and is actually able to love someone…I pray he treats her right!!! She’s been through too many men doing her dirty…if you’re a woman…don’t disparage this survivor!!! Uplift her abd teach your daughters BETTER! ❤️😰❤️😰❤️😰

[OneGoodWoman]

Thank you for sharing, glad you survived. If I'm honest, even if you'd turned him down, things may had ended worse. Ppl are judging you, but you never know the out come especially if he asked you multiple times to give you a ride. You survived for a reason

[angelaholmes]

Christie thank you for sharing your story you are a courageous woman to talk about what you went through i hope that you have found it healing for you i believe that you have helped so many people by doing this

[shadyshores-yn]

I can't believe that people are victim blaming.😢 . Thank you for sharing your story. Nobody deserves what happened to you. God bless you.

[geraldineskinner]

Congratulations on your journey and make such good use of a terrible situation. God bless

[pimps]

Christy, thank you for sharing your story, we appreciate it. You are a strong person and very brave to tell your story like this. I can't believe that guy took advantage of her kindness, that's f**ked up. I am glad your current husband treats you well, you are happy now and you are taking it one step at a time. Take care and have a good day!

[roxweinzel]

Such a great survivor. So lovely and sweet. So sorry you went through that but wow have you overcome. So proud and happy for you. ❤️ I know your story will help others. 💪

As a sexual assault survivor. This woman is incredibly brave to share her story. I was sexually assaulted by my first ex in 2015 when I was 23. I never reported it. I didn't even talk about it until 2019. and finally told my mom in 2020.
I didn't start having flashbacks until the summer of 2021. For me, flashbacks are an out-of-body experience. My flashbacks are triggered by emotions. So someone telling a story about sexual assault that is incredibly vivid and invokes the same emotions that I felt during my assault.

[NandiJohnston-pf]

So heartbreaking! 😞

3:03 but wait, don't most hotels have a bathroom in their lobby-area? Maybe motels don't; or... maybe ALL hotels don't have one in their lobby; or they do, just not for non-customers/non-guests. idk. 😞

But *what* I do know? I would have recalled ALL the fast-food places/gas stations we likely drove pass... where [he] could have stopped to use the b/r.

As a teenager, 'accepting a ride from a stranger'?... plausible... heck! I did *it* back then!

But [he] 'asking to enter my private quarters' to use the loo..? For any reason? My spidey-senses would have spiked! #IntimacyIssues!
I do not care to be alone w/a stranger in private!
Public places is where one sees strangers, thus, *that's* where they should be seen.
'Not in private rooms.

And I'm not judging her as a person, seems like a lovely lady; and my heart goes out to her, to all that's been victimized! 😞
This feedback is for all teens that might peruse here, so they too will know that anyone asking to enter your private space to KNOW [that's] a NO!

[veronicadean]

I love what you decided to do with your life and your story. We hear you! Thank you for sharing and the work that you do.

[Rebecca-x]

You deserve the world. I am so sorry what you’ve been through. I never judge anyone’s situation because I’m not in that situation so therefore why would I judge what that person has gone through because I haven’t been through it. But marriage rape is real. I can’t believe people don’t know about marriage rape it does happen a lot but so many women and men never talk about it. I fully understand why many women and men would not want to talk about it because people are judgemental and hurtful they never think before they speak about how words can trigger people. I want to say though I commend you for speaking about it and what happened in your situation/ life. I am so, so sorry for the pain these awful people caused you and you had to endure. You seem like such a beautiful person but unfortunately amazing people sometimes can attract toxic people. It’s got nothing to do with you it’s because they can see your light and that’s why these awful people come because it’s like they want to take that from you and destroy it because they don’t have it within themselves. Again that has nothing to do with you that’s all on those toxic people. They need to go therapy and work out their issues. They probably have a lot of internal conflict, childhood trauma etc. That’s on them. Your managers sound so horrible. Managers never have any empathy but this I’m shocked by. The fact you said you got SA and they didn’t care, they brushed it off, didn’t give you time to heal is inhumane and madness to me. It makes me so angry. Like who the hell do they think they are. They need a reality check and need to be humbled. I’ve never met your managers but I would have gone off. I don’t like your managers at all. That’s not professional at all. They let you down. This horrible man who did this to you is awful. What kind of person does this to another person. Please don’t blame yourself tho no one was in your situation at the time so don’t let anyone say why didn’t you do this etc. because they don’t know your situation and honestly when people say that’s it’s the worst kind of thing to say to someone who has been SA (trust I know sis, I know) no human being should ever do that to anyone. It’s inhumane like what kind of human being does that to someone. I am so happy you met someone worthy of you! I dunno if you believe in God or a higher power but it seems like they came in to give you even more strength and resilience than you already had. I don’t know you but you seem like such an amazing person so I’m glad you got your happy ending congrats girl love to see it 🫶🏽 keep shining and never let anyone take your shine from you. Deserve the world 🌍 God bless you, your beautiful children and your hubby. Being a mum is a full time job within itself so take it easy on yourself. You are doing the best you can and that’s all you can do. I wish y’all the best. Deserve the world and so much more fr 🌏

[shandell]

The comments by some people here is just, smh.

Thanks to those who are standing up for her.

All of us will make mistakes, continuously, because it's called life.
And then you can't understand why the poor victims NEVER come forward.

It should be questioned why so many of us CAN'T trust people anymore? Some people still have faith in their fellow woman and man. We shouldn't have to keep our heads on the swivel, but sadly this is the times we live in.

Thankfully, I've lost my trust in people years ago, soI always keep a small circle. If at all.

Praying for continued healing to all the victims.

She was so naive if that didn’t happen to her the whole platoon would have ran through her so in a way that 1st trauma saved her from being a pass around on base
