I am 21 currently. So I was casually talking to my childhood friend and I realised I was being groomed when I was 15.
So there was this guy who was 23 years old at that time and he was best friend of my friend’s boyfriend. My friend’s bf was 19 back then. I was introduced to him by her and her bf. And he casually entered my life as a so called friend and bombed me with so much emotional support, care. We started going out often and he treated me really well with gifts and taking me out to expensive cafes and restaurants. And I thought he loved me and when he confessed I also said I love him and we got into relationship. Though we never did sexual intercourse but we did a lot of sexual stuffs. After 3 mnths I started feeling distant towards him and I couldn’t handle the feeling. I didn’t know wht was happening he was showering me with lot’s of love and I couldn’t understand why something inside me was not happy, I wasn’t feeling love towards him. I communicated this with me and he responded with more gifts, chocolates, roses in return. But still I wasn’t feeling good with him and when I eventually broke up with him he blackmailed me that he will tell my parents abt our relationship and show them our pictures ( nrml ones) and he as adamant to do that, one of my frnd had connection with my area’s don and with his help I managed the situation and warned him to not do anything.
I always thought it was me. I was the wrong one here to not understand his feelings and I dumped him despite his pure love for me. But now I realized no, he was a pedophile. My instincts knew that was wrong and it made me do all that. And thank god I did that. I can’t imagine what would have happened if I didn’t.
