Hard Topic: old rapes affecting current relationship
Hi all,
This is my first post, and hope i'm doing everything right... but i searched for this forum because i need some help desperately. My girlfriend has been raped twice. once when she was in third grade, and once again when she was a freshman in high school. she's been with 5 guys, and and the two other experiences. We've been having sex for 6 months now, and she told me she's always been emotionally detached and doesn't feel anything but carnal pleasure. It hurts so badly knowing that everything i think we're making love, and there's a strong connection, she feels nothing. I've thought about trying to take her to councilling, but would i be out of place? i really just want to heal her wounds and be able to show her what sex is really supposed to be... please help.
