I was genuinely terrified that the idea I was frigid would spread around school. Rox ngl if you don’t send any im gonna hav to tell ppl that ur super frigid. The requests became demands and when I didn’t deliver. I’d had one boyfriend before - Joe, who was my age and very sweet - but we broke up when I started to receive more attention from older boys.ĭan, it turned out, liked me so much he wanted more photos. But I didn’t want to lose Dan’s attention. The morning after sending that first photo of myself in my underwear, I felt dirty. We never dated - he only ever messaged me after 8pm - but I had always wanted to be liked, and the more the older boys paid attention to me, it seemed, the more the popular girls had time for me. The fact he’d started to text me had made me feel good. I was only 13 years old when I pressed send on the first explicit photograph I shared with Dan, a handsome and popular boy who was three school years above me.
