So, I've had several coincidences online that I wanted to talk about.
1. I was on this like TikTok for kids, where you can also private message people. I messaged this kid saying this wasn't a dating app (he had posted a vid saying 'whose single' or whatever). We talked for a bit and at some point, he said uhm....sorry it's kinda stressful to talk about this but I think it should be shared. Uhm he asked him if I wanted to see his ...thing. If you don't know what I mean, please leave, this post isn't for you. Anyway, I said no, duh, wth, he stated he was 12, which I highly doubt, and I was, and still am, 11. He said he had posted it on his story or smth, idk by then I was grossed out and disgusted. I obviously blocked him.
2. I was on this site called Amino, just a site with many communities where you can ask questions in chats, it's very helpful in some cases. You can also private chat on there. This guy messaged me, I asked how old he was, he said 17. That's an immediate red flag, I don't recommend messaging anybody who you don't know, and who's more than 4 years older than you. We talked for a bit, and honestly, he was really bad at spelling and grammar, another read flag (might be a robot). At some point, he asked if I wanted to do uh. Hm. Ok. S***ing. Basically inappropriate texting is the best way to describe it without typing the word. I asked him what that meant, although I had an idea about it, I thought it was maybe a spelling error or autocorrect. He told me, and I got mad at him. Blocked him straight after.
3. I was on Snapchat, and had joined a group chat from TikTok (this was on me, ik). Anyway I added this guy from the gc, so we could talk privately. He stated he was 13, but I doubt it, cause when I asked to video chat, he said his parents were getting a divorce and were fighting. Which could've just been an excuse to hide the fact that he wasn't who he said he was. But ofc, he could've been telling the truth. One time, he sent me a text saying 'I love you' which confused me since we weren't together or whatever. One time, he sends me a pic with a black screen saying, send me n****. I was weirded out but thought nothing of it. At some point, we were a thing ig, since I 'liked him' (no, not really). He sent me the same black screen pic again asking for them a couple days after we got together. I said no. He said it was a joke. But he sent the same thing twice. I don't think it was. Blocked him.
Ik in several of these incidences, it was my fault. Keep in mind that I had stated I was 11. In every single coincidence. But they still did the thing they did. I'M 11, MY GOD WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!!! Like, they ruined my innocent (not so innocent anymore lol) mind. They knew I was 11. And did it anyway. Even if I was older, it's still f-ing disgusting. Please be careful loves. Please.
