I have been with my boyfriend 8 years, since we were just 18. We’ve kept in touch with high school friends and one of them was having a pool party over summer. Our friendship group has a lot of guys in it but something happened which really shocked me at the party. This was well into the night and I was pretty drunk by this point. I was in my swimsuit talking to another girl when one of my boyfriends friends came over and put his hand on my bum. I was drunk, and shocked so responded ‘Hi XXX’, he quickly removed his hand and then we had a brief exchange where I pretended he hadn’t just touched me inappropriately, and he walked off. This friend had been travelling for years and recently returned, my boyfriend adores him and was saying how great it was to have him back. I was shocked by the behaviour because it was so out of character. I started to think I had drunkenly imagined it, but I know it happened. Anyway, I’ve been left feeling annoyed, confused, guilty even, about it. Also because this guy has a girlfriend who wasn’t at the party. I obviously can’t tell my boyfriend either as I don’t want to cause trouble..
