I seem perfectly normal to most people too, well now I do at least. I was raped in August of 08 so, so like six months ago. It's tough because it's hard for my boyfriend to understand or relate and I understand that. I think the best thing you can do is make sure she isn't still blaming herself (therapy may be in order for that) and be there for her. Be cautious about broaching the subject of therapy, some women won't like the idea.
Also, understand what happened to her and don't remind her of it. For example, there are certain positions I just can't handle anymore.
I hope that helps, dunno what else I can add from the other side of this issue.
