When I was 15 I was extremely lonely and desperate, so when someone who I thought was a woman started talking to me on social media I was very happy at the time, and some of the people who I thought wrre good friends at the time got nude pics from girls at my old school. So at one point during the conversation I got out of control and I asked for nude pics. To my suprise the person started dirty talking and asked me to send pics first, after that she would send back. So that's what I did and she sended me pics too, I was so out of control that I didn't question that she didn't hold the camera in any of the photo's. After doing this back and forth for a while I stopped. And I felt great, like there was finally someone who liked me I thought. But then later at night she started texting me constantly and asking me money, that's when I started to get nervous. I told her I didn't have any money and that I was only 15. Then she sended me screenshots with my nude photo's some of which had my face in it, at that time I was extremely naïve. She also sended me screenshots of all my friends on facebook and instagram which included almost everybody who went to the same high school as me, family members, friends, aquintances, adults that I knew, people I looked up to, basically almost everybody I knew and I was already very depressed at that time. He threatened to send all my photos to everybody I know and I wasn't able to do anything about it. I told my parents and they threatened to call the cops. He stopped (I realized it was a man) and we went to the police but they werent able to help me at all. And for the next two years he has been stalking me online and using different accounts to stalk me and threaten me, I was so traumatized I deleted all the pictures of the first incident. And somehow my phone stopped working a week after the first incident. So I lost all the evidence. The authorities werent able to help me because they didn't take me serious. Instead they literally laughed at me and started questioning me instead like I am a criminal... all because i'm a man, and people think for some reason that men are always supposed to fix their own shit and suck it up and that we never encounter problems like this. That's exactly what I did. I tried to run away from it for two years but everytime a female thats good looking sends me a friend request I get extremely paranoid and scared. This is the is the only place where I think I can tell this without being ridiculed and treated like shit. I already did a lot of self help, I've been doing a lot of that, but this problem with my dating life feels so hard to remove, it has ruined my dating life right now, and it's hard for me to trust any women who shows interest, because I have also been manipulated, scammed, robbed, hurt etc this way before. How do I fix this problem ? It feels like things I used to fix other emotional problems almost don't work on this problem, the pain and emotions automatically turn on at these moments, it then feels like i'm on fire and my harts gonna explode.
