OK, I've read all of the answers to this awful question but I believe
that this girl needs help. I agree and disagree with the panel's
answers.
"Been there, and done that" is my story. Except I stayed
with the guy and it went from rape on to many other things.
Possible Manic Depression
This girl is feeling violated and doesn't know how to feel. She
doesn't want anyone to know about it so she is covering up her feelings
and hiding them from people. This shows signs of a possible manic
depression.
She needs to talk to someone that can help her deal with her feelings,
maybe as the friend you should talk to your parents and get advice
from them on what to do in this situation. They will more than likely
want to talk to this friend. If she is not really close with your
parents, then talk to a trusted adult, teacher, counsellor, help
lines, etc. Ask them what to do about the situation.
Tell an Adult
As much as she may not think she needs help, she really does. And
although you really want to see her helped, you can't force her
to do anything that she doesn't want to do. My biggest advice is
tell someone, an adult that can be trusted, and try to keep the
lid on the whole situation. She may be mad at you for telling someone,
but this guy has to be dealt with.
Eventually she will get in touch with her true feelings about this
issue and realize that you being her best friend, did what you had
to do.
She Will Forgive You for Getting Involved
She will forgive you and you will be friends again. Just remember
you are involved now, it's going to be a bumpy ride and you are
going to have to help her go through it, whether she wants you there
or not.
