Hi
No i’m not dead, i know i’ve been away way too long and thank you all who haven’t unfollowed me yet hah. Truth is i started med school in fall and I had to cut Tumblr time out bc i need to pass the year. But that’s not why i came back here.
I have a story to share with you, a story how i was being catfished by a tumblr user for a year, and yes you read that right my friend. And also bc i want to raise awareness that these things really do exist irl too, not just on MTV.
So last year I met this boy on tumblr, we really hit it off and started chatting and we soon moved on to Kik and then Whatsapp. Months of every day texting passed and we started dating. Like ik ik, internet dating, but i liked him and he was kind and sweet and different from all the infamous fuckboys i had dealt with before him. The only problem, he was really shy. He wouldn’t send me selfies and didn’t wanna skype. I couldnt understand why, bc apparently he had done photoshoots before and he was like, a cutie?

You guessed it...Thats not him. He had been sending me pics of some model guy, pretending to be him. For a year! And god did he make it seem real.
He told me he was 18. He is in fact 16 and doesn’t look like that at all. He is a good liar tho. That and i’m too good of a person to have blocked him the second i started to suspect something. But bc i couldn’t prove it, I didnt.
This stranger took a year of my life away from me. I thought i loved somebody that was never real, i gave up sleep for texting, i gave trust, i gave love, i gave support, i gave myself.
And got used. Abused.
I know i’m not the first nor the last one to have this happen to them. But I hope my post reaches you people, and i wish you to be more careful and less naive than i was. People on tumblr are not who they say they are. Tumblr is not safe.
Please stay safe on the internet. And be smart.
I love you all ♥♥♥♥
