Hi everyone,
I am new to this site so please forgive me if I am posting in the wrong area.
As the title says, my husband has recently been accused of rape...30 years after it supposedly happened. The woman messaged me on Facebook to say my husband raped her with his friends, when they were all in the late teens.
She also messaged my husband before me (he didn't tell me so I had to find out from her later), and his friend as well.
My husband is shocked and is very concerned. This woman dated his friend, and my husband admitted to me that he had "fooled around" with her, however there was no intercourse. This clearly happened before my husband became a Christian.
I believe my husband and I have given him my full support.
He and I are fighting terribly now. I am terrified that the police will come knocking on the door as this woman has stated she is going to charge him and she has evidence. My husband wants to leave my little boy and I for two weeks for work, and I am beside myself.
This woman stated that all her family know, and I am even scared they will knock on my door.
I cannot cope with all of this. I am falling apart and I need him by my side. He called me selfish and said it is nothing to do with me. He said it's only my anxiety making me worry, yet he won't even tell his father for fear of "making him worry".
My heart is breaking. I have no one to confide in.
I need sleeping pills to sleep, and I can't take them when I am alone with our son.
I am falling apart. I even caught myself thinking of self harm before, but I am praying to get through this.
What should I do? I feel so unloved and that my husband is taking my support for granted.
He feels the same because I don't want him to go right now. I would be in a situation where I can go with him in two weeks but he won't wait.
This is such a nightmare.
Thank you so much if you have read this far.
