Hi hello, f18. So a few months back I dated a 16 year old online. We confessed our love and all back then. Around November I got cheated on by them. Now around January, they made a google doc about ME being groomy and all. It got so bad that I had to take a break off of discord. (Yes it happened on discord, I found the google doc on their carrd or whatever.) But anyways. I actually respected them. The 16 year old tried to make me CHEAT on my now boyfriend, they kept sending “kisses” messages or whatever and it made me uncomfortable. Now one of my ex online friends(they are 20) called me a pedo for being in a relationship with a 16 year old which is LEGAL. But they did not care if their friend who is ALMOST 18 e married a 13 year old. I feel so paranoid because I had to show PROOF i did not groom the 16 year old. I haven’t even ATE all day because of the heavy accusations.
Sorry, I had to get this off of my chest, I hate minors. I really do.

Unfortunately with todays society, playing the age game is super risky, I know 18 and 16 years old isn’t bad, as I too were in a relationship with someone that was 16 when I was 18 (14 and 16 at the time we started dating) it’ll all be fun and dandy until the relationship doesn’t work out, then they wanna play the victim card and destroy your reputation when it’s all said and done. That’s why my new moto is date someone older than you or the same age as you, its always a mess when you try to go under your own age
What anon said. Just avoid dating under 18 people and you’ll be fine. Because of how sensitive this stuff is it’s understandable why people are biased and protective about it, there’s a lot of predatory behavior, and people aren’t very fact orientated, they’ll just go based off of who said what first, no offense to society but it kinda lack critical thinking, most people don’t actually ask for more information before their mind is made up, all it takes is someone to accuse you first.
Honestly I don’t know why you were dating a 16yo I’d think they are quite immature, heck a good chunk of people in their 20’s are immature, much less a 16yo but maybe they were able to act a bit more mature than they actually were, idk.
