13-Year-Old Says She Is Going To Meet Up With A 17-Year-Old She Met Online And The Internet Is Begging Her Not To
A 13-year-old girl says she met a 17-year-old boy online, and now she wants to meet up with him in real life.
The internet is begging her not to because as we know, it could be anyone behind that keyboard telling her anything she wants to hear.
“I need help judging this situation. Badly,” she started out by saying.
She said she met this man, who claims to be a 17-year-old boy, online about 4 months ago. This guy then learned that she self-harms, and he was very supportive of her.
“Quite frankly he helped me out of a deep hole I was in. I was a huge pessimist but he kind of taught me how to be more optimistic,” she admitted.
“He asked me to be in a relationship with him.”
“I agreed because I realized that I did feel something for him, even though I couldn’t quite be certain it was love (since I’d never had a crush or anything resembling one before).”
“Now everything has escalated.”
This guy insisted on coming to visit her, and he even took vacation days already so he can make the trip.

It then slowly dawned on her that this is an incredibly dangerous situation she has gotten herself into.
“Sure, I trust him, but you can never know what another person is really thinking, can you?”
“I‘m just so incredibly worried that I might have made a horrible mistake,” she continued.
She thinks if she breaks things off with him that she will lose a lot of the online friends she has made since they are very good friends of his.
She then says she knows he will be very upset with her if she tells him she doesn’t want him coming to visit her.
“I’m just scared to lose him but at the same time I’m also really scared of him actually coming here,” she said.
“To emphasize, this is playing a serious toll on my nerves.”
“I haven’t gotten a diagnosis yet, but I believe I might actually just be depressed and lately, I’ve been reeeeaaaally close to attempting suicide.”
“I need help and I just hope that someone here can give it to me.”
The internet begged her not to meet this guy.
“Please, this is coming from a mother of three daughters, do NOT agree to meet this person!”
“This person could very well be who he says he is but he could very much be a predator. And if you suspect that he would be angry with you for any of the reasons that you mentioned, I’m willing to bet on the latter.”
“Predators are very, very good at appearing to be something they aren’t, and no 17-year old pursues a 13-year old for good reasons. Please talk to an adult you know in real life and trust about this.”
“As a now 21 male, When I was 17 even trying to date 15 was weird in high school. There is a huge gap between if ( which I highly doubt) this man is 17 and you are 13.”
“I absolutely agree with all of this. I am also concerned about what you said about the people you like talking to being his friends too.”
“They could be working with him. Please, cut ties with him & all people he is involved with. Please, please talk to your parents & be safe.”
“Also, I’m not sure what personal information you’ve already shared…but do NOT share stuff like your address, your phone number, your other social media.”
“Don’t even let them know your specific town or what your parents do for a living. Lots of things can be tracked these days.”
“Do NOT meet with him. 17 and 13 is bad enough, but you actually have no idea what his real age is.”
“Get out of there. I know it sucks to block this person, but you seriously need to. You are in so much danger right now.”
“This person is not who they say they are and when you find out for sure it’ll be too late. Get out of there now.”
“I know it hurts but you have so much life ahead of you and so much to learn and experience.”
