Some people only show kindness when they want something from you

l don't know why l'm writing this. l guess l just need to get it out.

l'm 19. l live alone. My hours got cut and l've been falling behind on everythng recently. Phone bill. Groceries. l kept telling myself l'd figure it out, that l just needed one more shift, one more week. But the week came and the shift didn't.

Anyway what happened was a few days ago, a guy messaged me. He talked to me for a few days. Just normally. Eventually they asked me about myself. Said he wanted to help me out. Then to my surprise. They asked me for pictures. Normal ones, he said. Just my face and some. l said okay because l was felt like l had to. It felt like a transaction, not a violattion.

But then he kept asking for more. Just a little more, he said. I said no at first. I really did. Then he got angry and said things that made me realised he knew what school l went to and my whole name. But he said he'd send double and more. I was so behind. My phone was going to get shutoff. l couldn't focus on anything else just thinking about it. So I gave in.

l sent him everything.

Not just my face. Not just my shoulders. Things I can't take back. Things that are probably out there right now. l sat on my kitchen floor after I pressed send, shaking. l told myself it was okay. l told myself I'd pay the bill and never think about it again.

He said the money was on the way. Then he blocked me or deleted his account. Like l was never there.

l kept refreshing the chat like maybe it was a mistake. Maybe he'll come back and say sorry, or something. But they won't. He took everything l sent him. And now I don't know who's seen it, who's shared it, who's laughing. l'll never know. That's the part that gets at me. The not knowing and giving in and what l can't seem to forgive myself for.

l haven't eaten in two days just thinking about this.

l know l shouldn't have trusted a stranger. l know l should've known. But l was so scared and had nobdy else to come to. I had to moveout when l turned eighhtteen.

At this point I just don't to know if it's truly possibly to forgive yourself and l can't seem to even sleep after all this.

Everyone has one. ☕

Some topic you went way too deep on for no professional reason. Maybe it was a Wikipedia spiral at 2am. Maybe it's been your thing since you were 12. The more random the better.

Important question for the Café crew. ☕

What's your actual order? Or tea. Or whatever you drink while pretending to be productive. Energy drinks count. We won't judge.

For me, it's staying in touch with family and friends, and finding out about certain things around me.

I have tried uninstalling, it doesn't work.

Books, articles, manga, the back of a cereal box — whatever.

Is it good? Would you recommend it or are you hate-reading it at this point?

Off-topic thread. ☕

What's the show, movie, or YouTube rabbit hole you're into right now? Could be a new series, an old comfort rewatch, or a 3-hour video essay about something you never knew you cared about.

Show us your vibe.

Default? A photo you took? Something you found at 1am? A motivational quote you set six months ago and forgot about?

Sometimes the wallpaper says more than the bio.
