Gillian Answers:

I can definitely understand why you're frustrated.

I don't see how this situation can change, except with the passing of time as she begins to trust you more and more. Just continue to show you support her and want to know about her past. When she tells you things, try to react in a non-judgmental way.

However, if this is a question of her being dishonest in other ways, then you do have a problem. (It doesn't sound like that's going on though.)

Did She Get Counseling After Her Rape?

I agree. The rape may have left her afraid of sex & men

Can you guys try to have a discussion about why talking about sex is difficult for her? It may be closely tied to her experience with being raped. Did she get counseling after that happened? It might be a good idea for her to talk to a therapist about her problems with trusting you.

It sounds like you are being as patient and understanding as you can, and I admire that. Maybe a counselor could help you understand her perspective, as well.
