"I'm 22, and my boyfriend is 21. We've been dating for a few months. At a recent family dinner, his maternal grandfather hit on me. I was helping to clear the dinner table and leaned across the table to grab some plates when Grandpa shoved his hand up my skirt. Then he leered at me, and my survival instincts kicked in."
"You have no reason to apologize. Your boyfriend's family should apologize to you. Your boyfriend's grandfather is not a scamp. He's an old man who appears to be losing control of his faculties. You were not wrong to defend yourself. If there is any more talk of suing you for assault after what Gramps did, tell them you will file a police report about his inappropriate behavior, which was far from harmless. His next victim could be a minor."
A 22-year-old woman at a family dinner was groped by her boyfriend's elderly maternal grandfather when he shoved his hand up her skirt as she reached for plates. She slapped him hard enough that he fell off his chair, prompting relatives to minimize the act and threaten to sue her for assault while others screamed and dismissed the grandfather as a "scamp." She ended the relationship with her boyfriend. She has no reason to apologize. The grandfather appears to be losing control of his faculties. She was justified to defend herself and should report his inappropriate behavior if family pursues legal action. Separately, two longtime friends rekindled frequent texting and monthly in-person sexual meetings for 18 months, stopped to work on their marriages but remained unhappy, and their contact resumed two months ago.
