Wiseman2 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 30 minutes ago, Priya said: I mentioned I met him online and I have never seen him as in a person but I have talked with him on video calls. Do you parents forbid you to date because of your age and/or cultural/religious reasons? You're nervous, not because he's so great, but because you are doing this behind your parents back. They would probably not be happy that you are talking to this older creep who you know will eventually lure you into sexting, sending nudes, etc. Although this attention from an older guy is flattering, you are going down a dangerous cyber-fantasy. You really don't know who he is for example Married? A criminal?, etc. This is why your parents would not be happy about this and why you are "nervous". Because it's wrong. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I have been feeling this from a month but from last 2-3 weeks I am not at all feeling good. I have to keep things in my mind I can't even say them. I am scared to express myself. I feel too that he is very old but now we are in a relationship and I think to consider the age thing I should have done in the starting now there's no point. I don't know what should I do because I am overwhelmed everyday. Link to post Share on other sites

You can just say sorry, but the age gap is too great. Is this guy pressuring you in any way? Has he said you are in a relationship with him and that you need to do certain things? Relationships are something you choose to do, not something you feel you have to do. Link to post Share on other sites

Ok this is a situation to discuss with your parents so they can take you to a doctor for help. You can talk to a doctor/therapist in private. You can express your anxiety and moods. You do know what to do about this weirdo. Delete and block him from all your social media, messaging and gaming apps. It's that simple. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Relationships are something you choose to do, not something you feel you have to do. He has just asked me to put efforts thats it and I think that's even ok to ask , agreeing to the fact that he is older but now things can't be undo if I accepted it was my choice and his choice to propose me. Nobody forced and everything was good it is happening because of my way of thinking and my mentality. I don't know what's else is that more than that cause it's affecting me very badly.

I can't tell this to my parents because they won't firstly allow me, I understand but as from both our decision we have went in this relationship me and my partner nobody forced in nothing. A weirdo is someone who is strange and does strange things. How can he be a weirdo, instead I am a weirdo over here who is scared of her own boyfriend. I already knew about the parents thing still I went and it's very common over here that's why we have to keep things low-key. Secondly I can't just keep on putting money on therapies as it is expensive. I would rather like to take help from people over here though they are expert or not if they say logically or prove something logically they are the expert. Link to post Share on other sites
lana-banana Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Priya, please end this situation. Block him and don't speak to him anymore.

Part of the reason you're so scared here is because you have never met this man. He's essentially a stranger to you and you're forcing yourself to be in a cyber-relationship with him. It isn't normal to have never met one's own boyfriend, Priya. 7 hours ago, Priya said: He has just asked me to put efforts thats it What exactly is he asking you to do?

d0nnivain Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 @Priya I get it. You like this guy's personality & you are smitten but here's the thing you don't understand. Adult men don't talk to little girls like you they met on the internet for good, kind, honest, pure reasons. He's probably a pervert who preys on young girls. He's grooming you to be his next victim. If he is a good guy & not a sexual predator, he's got issues because otherwise he would be talking to women his only age, not a HS girl. You are overwhelmed because you are out of your depth. You are hiding this from your parents because you know it's not a safe situation. Still you feel drawn to him because it is forbidden. You think it's exciting & fun when its really dangerous. Try to understand. All the texting, phone calls & video calls in the world do not make this a "relationship." It's only a relationship after you meet in person, go out a few times & start to get serious. This guy doesn't want that. He's filling your head with pretty lies about how bold & mature he finds you to lure you into his trap. He wants sex & then he will drop you. Please don't meet him because it's likely that you will either be pressured or forced into things you don't want. If you are generally bold & confident in other parts of your life then you must recognize that you are shutting down with him because subconsciously you know this is bad thing. Your mind is trying to protect you from this guy. Listen to yourself & walk away. It might have been a fun dalliance but I see danger & heartache ahead. When you are doing something that you can't talk to your parents about whatever you are doing is wrong. So stop. They have your best interests at heart & are trying to protect you from dangers you don't have the experience, wisdom or maturity to appreciate yet. When you find the right boy who is your own age & everything is above board it will be easy to talk to your parents about him & your parents will be happy that you have a nice BF. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Damn if it was like that, that he wants sex then I would have directly blocked him he knows every weakness of mine he is 24 and he is not a child predator and also he wound wait for so long we have been in this relationship for like 4 months. The parents thing I am from india and my parents mentality is something that I am not able to tell him. In india making boyfriend is not allowed so everything I do has to be kept secret atleast at this age. Everybody does her and it's not that i am in a relationship because everybody does. Everybody is ponting the mistake at him but the real problem is in me. If someone is trying to help you out or loves you doesn't obviously means that he wants sex. I have some problem in me that is inferiority complex and the other is the ability to not understand him. He is trying to help me but I am not able to help myself. Link to post Share on other sites
