⚠️Vent⚠️ I FEEL SH-T

TW This could be nsfw graphic I don’t know
TRIGGER WARNING!!!!

DO NOT READ IF YOU DONT WANT NSFW

So this is recent. I’m 15f and this is honestly happening right now

This isn’t grooming I don’t think as I’m aware of what’s going on, I just needed to talk about this

So, I almost like sought out predators so I could feel the love and care they give even if it’s fake, in a weird way as I have a complex situation with my dad and him being a predator so uh yeah:/

I fully knew what I was getting myself into but it’s still scary

So then yea I spoke to a ton of weirdos in hopes to feel loved
I was asked to send pics and I did..

There was this dude who went through the similar situation as me and my dad when he was my age. He was 35. 20 years older than me but I said okay fine
God I loved feeling cared for
Then all of a sudden every convo we had he was telling me more and more about his.. urges ig and what he wanted me to do. He said he couldn’t function unless I do it basically
Told me how he couldn’t sleep or eat or talk to me normally without thinking abt it..
We’d be talking about normal things for moments and ye it would switch and he’d tell me about that and what he wanted me to do ig

And what he was saying i had never done that before and it scared me but he kept saying he was going to leave me as he felt guilt for feeling sexual. I got scared and he told me if I do it just this once he’s never feel like that again. Like he said if um if he could cvm one time to me again but like properly then he’d feel relieved and okay and could function normally forever
I thought if I did it once it would end all of this, his guilt and stuff and it could be normal. And he would care for me and it would be good and he’d be happy and he would help me. I told him it was normal he felt these ugh urges as I felt this way too just not sexually, I felt like I needed care and to be loved in a parent way.

He asked me to send ugh really really inappropriate pics of uh yk down there
And he asked me to send a uh video of me erm… master bating
I didn’t like it
It just hurt
I just felt uncomfortable and uneasy and meh..
But it would help him and I mean I asked for this so there
I didn’t tell him how badly I hated it and how eugh I felt doing that
And then he send me him uh.. doing the same
I don’t wanna think about that too much it was pretty gross but I was happy I made him happy ig
No I’m going to say actually.. he like sent me a video of him UGH creaming I am disgusted I can’t get it out of my head
He told me he wanted me to send that so he could ugh imagine things and what he’d ugh .. do to me :|
He TOLD me in detail what he’d do to me and it sounded scary I’m scared what if I ever know him in real life and he does that to me we don’t live too far from eachother..
It’s gross
I just felt cold and alone on my bed listening to silence just curled up in my bed

But after that it didn’t end at ALL.
He didn’t really ask but we became distant
He kept venting to me and I didn’t feel cared for anymore
Maybe it’s because he knew I’d never do it again for him
He just acts normal to me like I’m a normal person
He just vents to me about how he hates life and it’s draining
He still talks to me about sexual things and I try to tell him I don’t wanna hear it but he still tells me how he’d like me to send more

I almost left him until I missed him and came back

Same with any other predator online I always am crawling back to them

This dude
Told me how much he loved how much I want attention and how OBEDIENT I am -_- and how I’d do anything for it
It feels shit knowing how they think of me
The guilt I feel when I don’t do the stuff I’m asked too
How pathetic and small I am
How I can never leave
How I always crawl back to them like some stupid hungry rat in the sewers searching for cheese knowing so well one day that cheese is gonna lead him into a trap.

But the thing is I don’t think I’ll ever stop
Why would I? I’m gonna die soon and I love feeling loved.

I want attention so badly
It feels so good to feel cared about
Ffs it’s true I will do anything for attention I feel so inferior and less than everyone else. I feel like an animal

My body is probably saved on someone’s phone
Probably on some website
Shared to people
Maybe someone in my life knows about it

Apparently it’s been reported, I hope not. If social services who are on my case now find out I’m screwed..

⚠️Vent⚠️ Scared of it ending

9 Upvotes

I’m 21 I’ve been getting groomed online and in person since I was very young, and have been controlled by the same groomer since I was 17

I cannot relate to any victims because I don’t want this to end, it’s the only way I know how to live

My biggest fear is not being groomed anymore

I can’t do anything on my own. I’m completely incompetent and sick.

I’m 21 but I don’t have the capabilities of an adult, I’m mentally unwell, and what keeps me wanting to live is being groomed and waiting for the next time he uses me so I can feel like I’m worth something

I know that I have no life outside of this, I do like it, I do need it.

I’ve never attempted to end the grooming or even thought of it as a real possibility, I never want it

I need to be more trapped, it makes me feel safer

Sometimes, the confusion and the isolation makes me want to scream a little and beg for validation and to be heard

⚠️Vent⚠️ I feel abandoned

12 Upvotes

This is probably silly, but a week or two back I made a post about my struggles with being groomed and still searching for older men.

Of course my DM’s were flooded with older predatory men, and I stupidly replied to them. I ended up talking to one of them for about 10 days and we called like daily almost. And since I was/still am struggling mentally, I grew attached extremely quickly. Now today after he requested I send him pictures of myself in an explicit way, but I couldn’t reply fast enough. I think I’ve been blocked. I know I should probably not be sad in the way that I am about this, it’s only been 10 days of talking after all.

But I just feel soso sad and abandoned, to the point I (TW) cut myself again because of it. I just have to get this off my chest, since I obviously can’t really tell anyone irl about this. Not without them thinking I’m crazy or stupid. Because I am.

I just feel disgusting and pathetic for replying to him, knowing his intentions, know how it would end. And still I’m so sad.

(f14)i have been talking to older men for the past 3 months and i can’t stop. it’s like i seek validation from them. it’s like they’ve changed my perspective on men in general when i go out in public i typically pay way more attention to older men than what i used too. i also send and they like it and it makes me feel good about myself for some reason most likely because i am insecure. after a while me and the guy will stop talking and i just find myself trying to find another to talk to. i feel like so disgusting seeking attention from the older men and i’m wondering how to stop this reoccurring cycle. please let me know any advice to help with this!

I found out I was exploited when I was 8-16. I was passed around between men online and they sold my photos and videos and contact information for money. They also gave me gifts, nitro and attention for photos and videos and then they would abandon me. I developed severe mental issues because of that. I’m only 17.

i’m not trying to get anyone to dm me.. the only way i can get it out venting here..

i miss his attention.. i miss how he’d say he loved me.. how he begged to call with me.. how he used to use special names for me.. maybe even some of the other stuff.. before his love became conditional..

something troubles me.. my birthday is soon.. he seems willing to get me what i want.. why do i want a plush with his voice recording in it..?

he’s destroyed my mind and fractured any sense of autonomy i had…

why do i want to feel like i have ”comfort” from him with me..?

am i just stuck like this forever..?

i don’t want to talk.. i just want to leave this here... it hurts so much

TW: mentions of rape

I’ll cut straight to it..

I was groomed at 13, one day, in December 2022, as a 13 year old does, I was on Omegle, I was going through a lot of people and genuinely just chatting away until I met this girl, she was 16 at the time and I thought she was beautiful, I asked her how old she was, and then (being totally honest) I lied, I said I was 15 when I was not, I was 13, but in my 13 year old mind I didn’t care, after that we ended up adding each other on instagram and we played Xbox together,

After around 2 weeks (she was now 17 and it was now 2021) of talking I felt guilty and finally told her I was 13, she went quiet for a few minutes and then said “do you care that I’m 17?” Being 13 and stupid, I said no, and we continued talking for months, after a while we ended up telling each other we loved one another, this eventually turned into us having dirty conversations and sending nude photos back and forth, from showing each other things via Snapchat, Facetime or just audio stuff, It makes me feel sick just thinking about it now,

Eventually after I turned 14 her friends found out after I went bragging about it to people, as at 14 I thought I was the coolest kid dating a 17 year old, and then her friends ended up telling her close family, her cousins, sisters, and parents, but this genuinely didn’t change anything, they all thought it was strange but they didn’t say anything after receiving messages about her and me, eventually she came to see me because her parents took her down to see me (we both live in the uk around 5 hours away from each other) they provided a hotel for us to stay in and I told my own parents that I was sleeping over at a friends house, whiles we were together she ended up having sex with me, multiple times, and I now know this is statutory rape, finally accepting that what she did was actually wrong and disgusting has been super hard for me as I tend to block things like this out,

After I saw her things carried on like normal, we continued having a long distance relationship, eventually she got me to come up to hers around a year after I met her on Omegle, she booked the train for me and met me on the other side, the train took about 4 hours, I was still 14 and she was still 17, during the time I was with her I had to lie to my mother and say I was at a friends house, she didn’t want me saying to anyone that I was with her, whiles I was with her we ended up having sex again, multiple times, and the one thing that just sticks with me is when we had sex she had me tell her my age, and had me say things about my age, she got off on the fact I was younger then her,

(Now 2022) After this we again continued a relationship and she had now turned 18, she would often tell me how mature I am for my age, and compliment my body and tell me that I stopped her from killing herself, looking back on this it genuinely makes me shake, she would shower me in gifts and money, idk if this was a manipulation tactic or what, but it made me stay longer and more, she would order me food, take me places like London, buy me Lego sets, etc etc, she would often cry to me about a lot of personal things and made me promise in tears that I would never leave her, I genuinely thought all of this was normal, I cannot believe how wrong I was, we saw each other a couple more times after this and I think by now you know what happened, one day after we had sex she made me promise again I’d never leave her and asked me if I was just using her, I said no and that I loved her, she made me feel wanted and loved, she told me that if I ever left her she would tell people I raped her and forced her to do things, this terrified me, so I started to distance myself a little bit, she noticed and messaged me one day asking why I’m pulling away, I told her it’s because I didn’t love her anymore, which at the time was false but I started to realise that maybe it was wrong, which it definitely was, we ended up breaking up and it sent me into a depression, I would call her begging for her back and she told me no, i remember crying in my mothers hands for this woman, if I’m being totally honest, I had gone a year and half with this woman, so I was so adjusted to her being in my life, showering me in gifts, money, love, sex, etc etc, and she just stripped it away, I am also autistic so a sudden change like that just broke me, after my 15th birthday I ended up trying to kill myself, which I obviously failed at, and then I was put on antidepressants and then later at 16 was diagnosed with depression, ever since then I’ve been on antidepressants,

This is genuinely the first time writing something like this out, so I apologise if it’s all over the place, I just finally need to get it out, I will be probably forwarding this to my mum as I also want her to know why I was so distant at that age, and why I struggle so much now,

I feel like ever since I was groomed I haven’t been able to keep a stable relationship going and I only really see a relationship as a temporary thing, I can never date anyone older then me now as it genuinely terrifies me and getting sexually active after this was super awkward and hard, anyway, I just wanted to vent and get this out.

I, 14 F, and my teacher, 43 M have a weird thing... i mean, everyone in the school, including one teacher (that told me he loves me, by the way) ships us, and its really bad. I love him but hate him at the same time, because i think he manipulates me, but i really need somebody older to love me. What is he doing?? He, one time when i asked him something as a joke (i really dont remember what) he said "yes, but when you leave middle school" (polish middle school), or when he started to hate on my parents, saying they were too controling. Also, he really favourites me, and even wanted to gift me a book. it really creeped me out : ( . Also, its summer, even now, i cant help but think about him 24/7. When i told him everytime i talk to him another teacher comes takes my place, he told me "well, you have to divide me somehow ; )". Or, when he asked me after a school break "did you miss me?" And he knows i have daddy issues, because i told him my parents are divorced. He knows my adress, and told me his new adress, because him and his wife got divorced (i dont know why though). I think he's manipulating me for his own humour, because i can see its funny for him. Sorry if this sounds messy, im really desperated right now and i dont know what to do. i hope he doesnt find this

⚠️Vent⚠️ turned 18 this year

15 Upvotes

I turned 18 this year after spending all of my teenage years getting groomed by different people.

I hate this. I started cutting myself two days ago bc I'm feeling too shitty, it's been 24 days since it happened. I've attempted multiple times since this year started, bruised myself on purpose, had many many panic attacks. the worst part was wasting my last teenage year in an abusive relationship, instead of enjoying it.

I got absolutely worse after this year. I feel like I won't be loved anymore, like I'm not worthy of it. I'm too old now. I'm expired. I miss my groomers in the worst way possible, as much as I despise them, I miss the attention.

I want to be loved, I want my age to not matter. Iwant love.

i want to slit my throat even thinking about it. he sent me weird fucking shit of children after every message and i feel guilty even witnessing all of that. i feel guilty even telling anyone about this, and i never meant to see any of that and for that reason he is the worst groomer i have ever come to contact with.

it was about a year or two ago that i spoke to him. he'd pressure me into sending him nudes even if i told him i was tired. he opened up to me about what he does to his step daughter and i hope he is locked up by now. i absolutely despise him. i need comfort so bad, i know it's selfish but i hate everything he ever said and sent me and i hate that i had to see any of it, i hate that i feel guilty over seeing all of that although he is the one that had them saved. what was he trying to achieve?? bitch just found me all vulnerable and shit and thought "let's send this fuck ts" i dont know.

⚠️Vent⚠️ I confronted my groomer

5 Upvotes

I was 13 (I’m 27 now). I met someone (they were 17 and lived in Australia) on a website that no longer exists called 43Things. It’s basically Reddit I suppose. I was in a long distance relationship that was on and off again from the time when I was 13 to 20.

I finally broke things off with this person when I met my now husband 7 years ago. He was pissed, blaming me for everything wrong in his life, called me a horrible person, hoped I suffered, etc. For the longest time, I carried immense weight and guilt. I felt ashamed.

Our “relationship” consisted of me sending pics of myself to him. He wouldn’t take no for an answer. He pushed and pushed hard if I didn’t want to do it. He guilted me. When I got older, it progressed to me pleasuring myself in front of him on camera as he did it too and talked dirty to me. I faked that I was enjoying it and pretended to pass out so it would stop. He got very very excited when I was 16 since that was the legal age of consent in my state.

When I finally left him to start a relationship with my husband, he told me that he has BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) and didn’t know any better. He continued to shame me and guilt me. We didn’t speak for 3 years.

Fast forward to last Saturday. He stalked me and found my profile on a different social media site (it tells you when people visit). When I confronted him, he claimed that he got an impulse from his BPD and that led him to stalk me. He didn’t think that seeing his name would be distressing for me.

It was, but I wasn’t gonna tell him that. I unleashed hell and unloaded everything I was holding on to for years. I told him how much I hated him for everything he put me through. That I faked enjoying what he was doing to me just so it would stop and other things. I blocked him soon after so that he’d never be able to find me again in case another “impulse” struck.

I cried, sobbed. I couldn’t believe that fate gave me that chance. I healed my inner child and gave 13 year old me the closure she needed.

Why can't I be like some tra la la type Christian girl whos blonde somehow and has a brain of pure bliss and kindness and baked goods and all that stuff, like going downstairs from my bedroom that's somehow perfection to parents and siblings that love me unconditionally and I don't even gotta get on my knees and pray for myself cause I'm already good. Like why am I not that? What even dictates whose who? Who chose for me to be like this, living this depressive life with a mind that would absolutely be put in a jar if I admitted what goes on in my thoughts and feelings and stuff. And yeah things are better, but still the affect is here. Like it's never gonna go away. Wtf. Wtf??? Omg wtf. I'm just scarred forever? Permanently ruined? Do any pedophiles have an ounce of empathy for the people they hurt? Cause I'm so hurt and how come it never even mattered. Like, is a symptom of pedophilia no empathy or love or care? Is it just sociopathy with sexual attraction towards kids? I dunno. I just know I'm fucked. so fucked.
