To the gay anon First of all just because you have been in a relationship with someone older than you doesnt mean you're going to get abused by them okay? My boyfriend is 23 and im 18 and we get along so well because of the dynamic. We get each other. Okay? Bye yall are so quick to judge.

hoenstly like .. i was considering not answering this bc it’s not even relevant to the discussion about that stupid film, but actually…… fuck outta here trying to imply that someone who was ABUSED by an older partner when they were a CHILD is in any way being “quick to judge”. that anon was talking about a relationship they were in at 15, with someone who was of legal age. do not come into my inbox and use your relationship – one between two legal adults – to push the whole “age is just a number” agenda when 1) we’re specifically talking about the issues with adults dating ppl who are underage, and 2) you’re spring-boarding this bullshit off the back of the experiences of a person who, again, was abused by an adult when they were a child.

like i get it, mayhaps your relationship is good. congrats. good for you. here’s a gold star m8. ( /s ) but going around trying to normalise the idea of GROWN ASS ADULTS dating ppl who arent even legal yet is 50 shades of fuckt up, bc you know what ? the power difference between an adult and a minor is a breeding ground for abuse ( yes,, even if said minor is “so mature for their age uwu” there’s a fuckn difference, legally, socially etc. ) and regardless of how Wholesome™ u view a relationship like that to be, it will never be anything but morally fucked up, bc one of the two is a fucking child. 

i’ve said it before, but young ppl having crushes on adults is fine ! it’s normal ! but what we shouldn’t be doing is normalising adults reciprocating those feelings. as an adult, someone being underage should be the biggest fuckin red flag / no entry sign you’ve ever come across. the shutters should come down in your brain, going there should not even be a thought that crosses your mind. as an adult, you have no business dating a minor. you have no. fucking. business. interacting with a minor in a way that is anything but platonic. and if you want to date a minor or want to fuck a minor as, again, a grown ass adult, guess what ? you are a paedophile. get help m8. truly, and un-ironically, get help. and if you’re gonna spend your time being an apologist for paedos, you also need help. kids deserve protecting and it disgusts me that you wouldn’t prioritise that over pushing your disgustingly harmful agenda.

anyway, im tired and i’ve gone off on a tangent, but honestly ? im str8 up ??? abt why you chose to send this. i find it strange that you read an ask talking about an abusive relationship between a 15yo and an 18yo, that was prompted by a post about a film involving a 17yo and a 25yo, and somehow thought that it was slighting ur 18/23 relationship. if your first instinct after reading peoples’ criticisms of a movie that romanticises a relationship with a fundamental power imbalance or someone’s account of a past abusive relationship has you getting heated, to the extent that you felt the need to message someone you don’t even know to try and defend / justify your current relationship, it seems like there could be some underlying issues there. typically people who are secure and in a healthy relationship wouldn’t do this. i hope that your bf is a good person and your relationship is healthy, but if this isn’t the case, i’ve put some links to masterlists / helplines below.
