Your experience is valid. Your trauma is valid. Do not worry about if others have it worse, what you have been through is valid. You are a survivor.

It was not your fault. You did not tease or provoke them in any way. Idc if you did it im the past. And if you were pressured into saying yes thats still assault.

Abuse is abuse and it was wrong for them to hurt you like that.

Pressuring someone is called coercion and its not open free consent like it should. If they were holding something over your head that's still abuse. Idc how much they bought you. Its not your fault. It never was.
You're brave, awesome, and so much more stronger than you realize. I wish yall well.
You are not the monster, they are...
