psa??

this is just kind of a thing because I was around the age of most of the people reading this when it happened, and I don't think I've brought it up in a solid five years /SO/

When you're 13-14 on here, youtube, or whatever- you're probably going to see a lot of guys older than you and you're llike "wOw I dig that." And I don't mean 30-40 year olds- I mean 19/20. And oocccaaasssionally you'll have opportunities to talk with these guys. Which is fine, I know some great guys that had that age gap that are still my good friends. hOWEVER, please please avoid getting talked into any kind of underage stuff? Like, some of these fucks will go ahead and sext or rp with you and you're kinda wanting to try this whole online dating thing and this older guy is into you and so you justify what you're doing with the fact that the age gap isn't too bad.
But the thing is, 13 to 19 is hUGE. Like, everything fuckin happens maturity-wise between those 5-6 years. And I'm not gonna say there's any specific age to start becoming sexually active. If you have a boyfriend and you're both ready whenever, go fuckin for it. But if you're in 8th grade and you have some fuck online which is new and exciting, plEASE PLEASE reconsider. If you want to see what dating online has to offer, date online, don't just take whatever comes your way.

It doesn't even come off as coercion at the time, because you're all excited and anxious, but in five years once you're on the other side of the line, just remembering what you did and what was done to you is going to make you want to vomit. (and obv i can't speak for everyone, but in this case it's also illegal and rape-y as fUCK)

So just be careful and keep in mind that everything happens over time and five years isn't particularly long, so find who you want to be with rather than testing the waters with some nasty fuckin shit like a college-age fuck that's into middle schoolers.
