TW : Harassment
Some days I see that little girl and can't help but observe her pain, her innocence that's no more there..
@Stormandshelter I'm sorry this awful thing has happened to you. You have every right to feel angry about this betrayal of trust. When I was 16 and 17 there was no such thing as online bullying. I can't imagine what teens go through today, but when I was 14 or 15 I was taken in by a man who phoned me anonymously. For some reason I can't understand he was so persuasive that I gave him a friend's phone number. She told me about the weirdo who called her and I said nothing. I was so ashamed. He had convinced me that he had something to do with a small group organized in my school. I was still a child then, very naive. I don't know if this helps. There are predators out there and always have been. You have grown in wisdom at the price of the loss of innocence.
I don't even know how to heal from it when I can't even face it. I just want to forget the helplessness. I just want to forget that I couldn't fight for myself..
@Stormandshelter Maybe in time you can face it bit by bit. The important thing now is that it doesn't happen again. You can also warn teens about online dangers without getting into the specifics about what happened to you.
