Me and my boyfriend were being intimate and things got very heated. We’ve never had sex and are both waiting till marriage but we do other things. He was f*ngering me and I wanted him to do so and was comfortable with it. He then tried inserting another finger which obviously took me off guard and he didn’t ask to do so. We’ve never really done the whole verbal consent thing cuz we’ve both been happy to where things have led. But i was in pain and told him to stop in which he did but I can’t but think was it a form of assault because he did so without asking. Like I said we’ve never done the whole verbal consent thing so he never asked even though I think he should’ve. I’ve also been sexually assaulted once before and I’ve only ever told him so I feel very disrespected because I feel like he’s done it again. His argument was that he only wanted to please me and didn’t intentionally want to hurt me, but he also sees the wrong in his actions and ever since has asked for consent verbally everytime. Would that one occasion be considered sexual assault? And do I forgive him for it? because I can tell he is genuinely sorry for his actions. Sorry for the vivid descriptions lmao I just didn’t know how else to explain it. We spoke about it afterwards and I was in tears and I could tell he felt bad and like I mentioned he asked for consent verbally again. Can this be deemed as a “mistake” or should I see it as assault. Thanks in advance.
