What is another name for a sub-committee?

What would be another name for this?

  • What would be another name for this? Ok, so I got 'groomed' by an older man (he is 49, I am 16.) Creepy much? YES. Anyways, they said that 'grooming' is practically making hum trying to make me trust him so he can have me for 'sexual stuff.' However, he KNOWS I didn't trust him and was starting to mistrust him more, and I know for a fact that he didn't want me for 'sexual stuff.' He wanted me to marry him, and to fall in love with him. *shudder*. So basically he would kiss my neck, hold my hands for LONG periods of times, hug me for EVER...he never touched me inappropriately, but he was just creepy...and like, totally in 'love.' He proposed to me, and he would ONLY do this stuff when I was alone. He would also stroke my hair, tell me I am beautiful, and say he loves me. So I went to the Family Safety Network, they said that he done three crimes in the things he has done to me, and that he was 'grooming' me. I just wanted to know if there is another name for this, because the description of grooming doesn't fit quite right. It wouldn't be 'sexual harassment' because he never wanted the sexual stuff...is there ANY other name. Thanks guys. :) BTW - I did turn him in to the cops...but we doubt he will go to jail :/ BUT he isn't allowed near me, so no worries. :)

    It sounds like he was trying to groom you. Unfortunately there is a lot of men out there and women who groom young children or teenagers, telling them how lovely they are etc to get them to do sexual things to them. My friend was groomed. He told her how beautiful she was, how special she was, he bought her things to make her feel good but she had to do sexual things for him in the end as a thank you for everything he was saying and buying her. It was awful, she fell hard for him and thought he wasn't doing anything wrong when he was, she was only 14 as well. Anyways, it sounds like grooming or sexual harassment. I am glad you turned him in and I hope he does not work at your house or for your father anymore.

It does sound like what is referred to as grooming but it also sounds like covert sexual abuse. Simply put, he is making every effort to coerce you into a sexual relationship while disguising this desire by saying he wants a relationship. It's all a guise. You did the right thing to seek help and go to the police. I truly admire you, that takes tremendous courage.

more like molesting you. Conning you to except him by doing little things that will work up to bigger things. If it seems creepy tell him and split if he wont let you go call the cops. Always be looking for a way out

I would also say molesting or sexual harassment even thought you say it can't be that. It's creepy anyways. And why did he "groom" you in the first place? O.o
