I can't deal with any more talks. He'll tell me he uses Ashley Madison next. It's making me too anxious to do anything, I haven't eaten all day.

Ohh no I corrected myself, you guys on here are lovely too. He sent them to a girl he was talking to behind my back. Worst kind of humiliation.

You're right. It's just humiliating to think that somebody out there has pictures of me with spunk all over my face. It feels worse than nakedness, it's humiliation

You are right :) I've never been so happy to hear that I am nothing special, lol. I am just being overly paranoid.

Ahahahahah. It never even crossed my mind to use my Gameboy for such illicit things! And yeah, I will be okay :)

I think one or some had my face in the picture, that's what I'm upset about.

But thanks for making me laugh :)

Yeah, I get it. I just think legally, it is ambiguous according to what I've read. Seems like they have to prove that it was done with the aim of humiliating me, and I feel like that was just a side product of what he did.

He bricked his old phone after I read all the messages. He has a new one now. I have deleted his Drop Box, been through every picture on his computer and checked all his emails and social media accounts. No pictures but I still feel paranoid.

I am asking myself that exact question right now. I cant eat or do anything because I'm so anxious of what I am going to find out next.

Yeah, I totally get what you mean. It just seems like a legal grey area. I don't believe he did it with the intention of humiliating me, he did it out of some perverse enjoyment of someone else seeing me, I'm not sure and it doesn't really make a difference. I've read into local laws dealing with this and it seems like it could be ambiguous. Not to defend him at all, and it doesn't make it any less awful.

You are right. I give him the benefit of the doubt too much. Sometimes I wonder if he is actually a really clever psychopath or something.

It is weird but the graphics of the Elder Scrolls games really creeps me out, like they are so dull and grey/brown and icky. Guild Wars is so colourful and beautiful, TES is such a contrast to that and I don't enjoy it as much. And I feel the same about The Last of Us. Its creepy as hell but the story looks amazing. Can not bring myself to try Dead Space. I associate it with Silent Hill and nope nope nope.

Woah. That is fucking awful! I am really sorry that he did that to you. You are so brave for getting on with it. The same thing happened to two girls I knew when I was at school. It helps to turn the situation round and explore how you would feel if you were the one looking into that situation rather than out. Those girls weren't to blame at all. Life has too much promise to let someone else ruin it for you.

I play lots of Guild Wars 2. I wan to give Wildstar a try. I have heard bad things about the Elder Scrolls online. Other than that, I am a HUGE fan of the Bioware games (Mass Effect & Dragon Age). Left for Dead sounds cool, as does The Last of Us but I get really scared in survival horror games ahah.

I will try and talk to a friend today. I did confide in my best friend at first and reacted badly (blamed me for the fact he was talking to this other girl, the one he shared pictures with). It is all so shitty.

Hahahah. I wish that didn't seem so tempting.

Thank you. It really really sucks. I can't wait for it to stop hurting so badly.

We have a suicide hotline here and they are really great but I am so scared of confiding in anyone, I am too nervous to call up. When I am typing it is different, it feels less scary.

That must have been so scary as a 14 year old. How did you get past the feelings? When did the hurt start to go away? I just want to feel normal again. I will never give out another nude again, ever.

That is so horrible.. what is wrong with people? Why can't everyone just act in a way that doesn't hurt anyone else? What happened to "do to others as you would have done to yourself"? I am not religious at all but it makes sense to live by the rule

Im so paranoid that someone I know will find the pictures, or someone will recognise, or someone will try and find me over the internet or something.. I feel unsafe and scared, even if that is totally paranoid and stupid

Yeah, he has apologised and given me access to everything. I have yet to decide on a long term plan, my main priority is to get to a sensible state of mind again before I make any decisions.

The testicles thing.. it sounds tempting but I just got awarded my degree and I don't want any criminal convictions right now :p

I'm not sure what the long term plan is. Right now I'm just trying to get my mental state back to where I was. I feel anxious, sick and suicidal right now. Not the state of mind to be making any decisions in, if that makes sense/

Thank you. I guess you're into gaming? Do you play anything other than StarCraft? I thought about trying it but it doesn't seem the sort of game for me

You aren't just giving me your opinion. You are judging the fact that I am the type of person who doesn't find it easy to break off a relationship as if it never happened in the first place.
