I'm in a difficult position (TW: SA, vent?)

For context, my partner and I have been together since December, but only three days after we established our qpr, a cishet man who established a qpr w/ her even without fully understanding what it was, sexually took advantage of her and their closeness.

Now, my partner is having trouble being able to do physical affection with me. Although, I notice my partner is able to do physical affection with others but me (We're both not sure if its just me tho) and it's just been making me feel all this weight.

They're also autistic so they do like to unmask around me which I love them for but our confusion of why this is happening is just causing both of us all of this weight. I've communicated with them a couple of times about it and we're still trying to figure out how we can both heal while not trying to push eachothers threshold.

They have told me that they really wanna do romantic stuff with me and her other partners again, but they have a disconnect with the function between their mind and body. They tend to get extreme anxiety anytime they do romantic stuff for their partners but the want to do it is there. They said they'll bring it up again with their therapist after they get the money for their next session.

It's just been really difficult and I hope it gets better from here and we'll be able to love properly and like how we used to for the three days before all shit went down.

I just want to know if this seems like it will get better soon. I really hope it does.

Fuck that cishet man.
