was it rape?

November 10, 2017, Cinda, Personal Experiences,

A long time ago I was in my first relationship, we had been together for almost a year and we're living together. One afternoon we started to have consensual vaginal sex. Half way threw I felt my partner withdraw and felt a sharp pain. He had started, in knowingly to me, penetrate my anus. We were face to face, he did not ask me. And I spent the rest of the incident crying in pain. However he did not seem to care. At no point did I consent to this and I was obviously in pain. I was crying. However he just continued. I didn't tell him to stop, for fear he would be disapoinyed in me. But is this rape?
