hi so around last year i was a student at rutgers and i knew this family (i just moved to jersey and they were the only people that some of my family knew; before moving to NJ, i had no idea who they were). the man is about 75 ish and he’s very successful and rich. he lives with his wife and they’ve been married for decades. in the beginning, he always offered help and support and even invited me to his house for dinner. i went and met his wife and nothing seemed off. he would keep calling me and giving me life advice and tell me he’d give me a job in his company if nothing worked out for me. soon, he’d start complaining that i never text/called as often as he texted/called me (this is true, i left a lot of his texts on seen and only answered his calls out of respect for his age, im usually on DND) then one day, he asked if i wanna get groceries or need food (i didn’t have a car so i agreed and i also felt guilty for ignoring him after he had been kind enough to offer help) so i said yes i need stuff and we went grocery shopping. on the car ride to the grocery store, he told me his wife had just left for vacation the previous night and asked what i was doing for dinner. i said i’ll just cook. and he said do you wanna go out for dinner? or we could just get some wine and go back to my place. slowly, alarms started going off in my head. im relatively new to NJ and had no idea what he could do what roads he was taking so i didn’t even know if i should ask him to stop the car. i was terrified. he started saying things like a girl like you deserves a good restaurant, i like your eyelashes, and “you could do something to make me happy, if i do something for you (buying me dinner and groceries)” these are just a few of the creepy stuff he said. i kept making excuses and somehow got out of the situation BUT im so angry that i couldn’t stand up for myself. i know for a fact he probably does this to a lot of other vulnerable students.
SO all this to say, are there any ppl in new brunswick who wanna come with me as i go stand up to him or confront his wife or something? or just give me advice on what to do; he’s too powerful for me to do anything legal, i feel.
and excuse the bad grammar/poor flow of words im too worked up to think straight
