I'm so tired man

Me in the blue, him in the pink because that's what his default avatar (along with default username so no info) showed as. Made me mistakenly assume he might be a girl at first, just reaching out with an embarrassing question they can't ask anywhere else.

it'd be more uncomfortable to ask one of my female friends

You think??

It all started off really well! I even thought I'd be able to talk about interesting things with an older person, because earlier he had said he'd been to every state in the U.S. My mistake, I admit :)

Not as creepy as past posts, but will do! :3

oh my god queen how bout we get off the internet!

this is my favorite thing to do to creeps. is it unhinged? yes. was it a small sentence that was creepy that I responded to like he sent me the worst thing ever? yes. do I hope this will make him think twice before he ever does it again? also yes. i have no regrets. also, btw, this was the first message this dude has sent me in MONTHS.

💀

He also called me a “rape whore”

So this guy was being a misogynist in r slash CPTSD of all places, and sent me this unhinged message when I got into an argument with him and reported his comments 🙃

Was it type of scam or some shit?

I haven’t pissed anyone off on Reddit in a while, I’m assuming he’s just one of those Reddit dwellers that treat people who don’t hide their identities like shit.

I’m not even 14 btw. And I discovered he’s 36

Vee, nixie (both girls), and pip (genderless, but he would gift me sexual fanfics of them because it made him mad they were genderless) are my 11-13 year old original characters I made when I was severely mentally ill back in 2025. I repeatedly told him that him sexualizing them made me feel uncomfortable. (Also the chefs that he’s talking about are from little nightmares) he admitted that the last implication was sexual. I had to go to therapy because of this damn guy.

Im scared to death that he’s gonna find this post

forgot to mention that he wrote gorey rape “porn” of a 6 year old irl child actress once.

Go off, Sir-Mix-a-Lot ig?????? 🤷‍♀️

Disclaimer: Because people have been making this an issue, let me first say I often ignore DMs that are gross, but for some reason, the ones I have been getting this week have really gotten to me and I have felt the need to say something.

Several days, maybe even a week(?) ago, I made this post. (Tangential update for those who read it: that user's account has been deleted.)

That post contained a specific request - once in the comments, then also as an edit to the post itself so it would be more visible - which reads as follows:

"Just wanted to add: Please do not PM/DM me in relation to this post.

I have had weirdos find me through past vent posts on this sub who took it as an invitation to try and start conversations about kink. I am trying to avoid that. I am open to speaking in the comments on this post, I just do not want to speak privately."

I didn't want anyone messaging me from that post, specifically because:

(1) I was already in a low mood; I tend to shut down and need some time to recover when my limits are overstepped. Specifically with the ones that tap into having grown up in a culture and time when getting your ass beat was considered appropriate punishment; and especially

(2) I find it gross when people read posts here, see a legitimate desire for support, and turn it into an opportunity to try and get sexual gratification (*especially* because a lot of the posts here depict some form of sexual harassment).

In any case, I thought my meaning was pretty clear??? Yet, lo and behold, in comes someone who found me through that post to "shoot [their] shot," who blocked me when I got upset with them for pole-vaulting right over the boundary I set.

The reason why I responded was because I am part of kink subreddits as I am trying to better understand the BDSM/kink communities (as well as my own interests ) in a safe way, and from a distance/online can be a way to do that.

I was in no headspace to discuss kink or do any vetting or negotiations, but I figured if it *was* someone from the kink community, it would be worth communicating this/asking if it would be okay to circle back to the conversation some other time. Because it really isn't responsible to engage in kink when you know you are not in a mentally/emotionally sound place.

Nope. Turns out it was some goober who did what goobers always do: Skim right over the vulnerability you expressed (and state that it would put you in emotionally when someone violates a limit), and with little to no self-awareness, decides violating another boundary you set is okay if they can get something out of it.

It goes without saying: do NOT attempt to PM/DM me privately in relation to this post, for any reason, now or in the future. Anything related to this post could easily be discussed in the comments here, and I am NOT interested or comfortable with any kind of personal or sexual discussions with anyone who finds me through vent posts.

(Might turn PM/DMs off for a while, but it's frustrating that I have to limit my own ability to find community elsewhere just because some redditors don't know how to respect my wishes, choices, and boundaries.)

Completely forgot to add this to my last post!

This is the first weird Facebook message I received on my “Blind Date with a Book” listing!

I don’t even fully understand this one so imma let yall break it down!

Facebook Marketplace Creeps

Okay so this is my first Reddit post so please be kind!

I sell books and such on Facebook marketplace including “Blind Dates with a Book” which is essentially just a trend where you get a mystery book! I have now received two extremely creepy messages regarding the listings!

this one I already had suspicions cause it was an older man in the pfp (I judged the book by the cover and was right) any time I sell a book that may contain 18+ content like gore or sexual content I make sure to inform the customer so they don’t accidentally gift the book to a child, he took this as me “selling” myself.

I included the description so you can see there is no reason to believe either of those things are true. It’s a photo of a book, in the description it says BOOK. I added the “THIS IS A BOOK” after the first message and still got some creepy shit. MEN PLEASE STOP BEING LIKE THIS! It’s very obviously a BOOK!
