February 21, 2025 at 10:54 amMy friend (29f) went on a date with a guy she met on bumble in Bangalore. She planned on meeting in a restaurant but she was kind of sick so he insisted that they grab dinner at his place. He was sweet a first, and they had dinner, then he started asking weird questions like her health and medical issues, if she could get married by month end without informing family, when she wanted to conceive, can she immediately try to conceive after marriage and she dodged all of these questions. She started looking on his phone and thinking of ways to excuse herself. Then he pinned her on the bed, stripped her and said that โyouโre my wife nowโ. He forced himself on her and she tried to resist as much as she could. She cupped her private parts with her palms and soon he came on her belly. Then he asked her to go wash herself and she immediately rushed out in a shock.Sheโs gonna lodge a complaint soon but what can she expect during the entire process. Weโre clueless.

February 21, 2025 at 11:03 amThat predator should be jailed no doubt but saying that going to a random man’s house is victim blaming is PEAK MENTAL GYMNASTICS. This particular scenario could have been avoided. -

February 21, 2025 at 11:02 amHow is this a relevant comment when the post was seeking information about the legal process?Reading what happened and then deciding it’s time for you to pass commentary about the assaulted person’s action is a poor choice. Do you think the victim doesn’t know that it was a mistake to trust this person and be in that position after what he did to her?

February 21, 2025 at 11:15 amThis is NOT LEGAL ADVICE. This is your personal opinion on what this woman should have done, as if that is going to change what happened or provide anything of substance or relevance to the victim.

February 21, 2025 at 11:07 amGosh, I’m so sorry to hear all this. Ignore all victim shaming messages… your friend needs support rn. Itโs good that she has you by her side. What happened is horrific, n she deserves justice. She should immediately get a medical examination and consult a good advocate to file a strong, detailed complaint. The perpetrator must be held accountable. Make sure she has emotional support through this process-

February 21, 2025 at 11:09 amJust an advice, donโt waste time in lodging the complaint while seeking for advice on online forums. This is a great subreddit, but seeking information online can happen in parallel. The more you delay lodging the complaint the more questions you would be asked by the police. Get a lawyer if you have pressing questions that you need answered. -

February 21, 2025 at 11:17 amHi lawyer here, just store the proofs for the future. But go to the nearest police station and lodge a complaint asap. Do not delay. All you will need as of now will be the name of the boy, his photo if any, his phone number and address-
