It’s been almost a year since mine happened, well at least since i found it and removed it. It was up for a year on twitter before that.

I wanted to become a teacher. I still want to be a teacher. But the shame and guilt and fear i feel is so overwhelming that i am too afraid of becoming one.

some background: i’m gay and i used to post thirst traps in college. I’m bipolar and had a manic episode. Some were cosplay pics. Some i even posted on reddit. But i’d always delete all of them soon after.

Long story short i was targeted by a convicted sex offender who became “obsessed” with me. He groomed me. He pretended to be my “friend,” said he wouldn’t share anything. Eventually i sent him some pics with light bondage (i’m gay and i’ve always been into kink). But nothing too crazy. Literally my arms behind my back and in a cosplay costume so i wasn’t nude. And he posted it on twitter and i didn’t know. Eventually i stimulated a sex act with a sex toy, which i had convinced myself wasn’t a sexual act because it wasn’t “real,” and he posted that online too.

Then i found out. One of them got 50k impressions. The stimulated sex act got 7k impressions. Got em removed. Threatened him with legal action, sent a C&D. And I found out he was a sex offender on probation. Told his PO. Publicly ID’d him and he deleted his account.

I was wearing a domino eye mask in the picture but granted, my face is visible.

Am I fucked? Can i still become a teacher? Am i likely to be recognized? The images never showed up anywhere else.

Just wondering if there are any success stories.

They just partnered site X, XVideos, and FetLife by the way.

I do not know which services they pre-emptively block on, but from what I can tell the answer is NO on Facebook, Instagram and X.

A sec offender posted non-nude ncii of me where i’m stimulating a sex act on Twitter. I hashed the image with StopNCII but that didn’t work. It still got uploaded. Got it taken down though.
