[I wrote a long thread last night or about majors dating minors and right after I wrote it it gave a full blown panic attack and I deleted it entirely. But then a few people came in my dms that it was actually a helpful one(specifically those 2) so I’m doing this again -
ALSO I’m not looking for anyone to feel sorry for after reading this. I came across the whole majors dating minors and it brought back the worst memories for me. I was 17 when I got myself involved into something like that.
I was “dating” this guy who was 5 years older than me.
I was “dating” this guy who was 5 years older than me.
He manipulated me to get together with him bc apparently he was in “love” with me. I had never been with anyone before so it cane as surprise that why would someone so attractive would wanna be with me but ht played the whole “you’re not like other girls” card and I fell for it.
I was not in a good place emotionally at that time bc my family was giving me a very hard time so also he took advantage of that vulnerability. Initially for a month then it took an ugly turn. He treated me like shit. He harassed me physically and emotionally several times made-
made me apologise to him when I wouldn’t let him touch me He gaslit me unimaginable extent.( while he played “I’m the mature one in this” thing.)
He made me cut all my friends. He doubted me for everything. One time he mistakenly took my cousin as my guy friend when I was out him and he saw us, he took a revenge on me physically and emotionally.
He wouldn’t let me have long nails or put nail paint or even let my hair open (bc he said “whores do that”)
He would show up outside my house and threaten me to meet him or else he’ll show up inside. I had marks all over my body but maybe my family wasn’t that supportive then so

I had to hide those. I was preparing for an entrance exam and ofc it took a toll on me and my studies. I went into addiction and started smoking (while I hated that and I still do). He then caught me smoking and took a picture of me to threaten me further so that I’ll get -
so that I’ll get physical with him. I wanna stress again that I was only 17. Even when I told my friends about it( who were in different cities) they didn’t support me. I was on the verge of killing myself. But then I cut him off for two months while telling him that
I need to prepare for my exam. Ofc it affected my results. He again showed up after the exam got over. I was scared of him by then so I met him with a few friends. Ofc he again threatened me to not join the college that I’d been allotted but I’ve had it by then.
and told him to f off and I wouldn’t care if he leaks those pictures.
Cut to two months in college. He also didn’t know ny caste until then( I’m bringing caste here bc I’ll tell that later why)

He again called me to tell me that he is married now to a girl who is ten times better than I am and who “obeys” him and he wouldn’t have even consider something serious with me bc “tumhari caste walon ko hum ghar me b nahi ghusaate” (he might have known my caste by then)
Bc he was a Rajp00t. And those words just made me hide it in my later relationships with other people.
So point of this longass thread it that if there’s a Major( esp. Men) reading this who is reading this. I’m beghing you plz don’t get involved with a Minor.(esp girls).
I took me YEARS to heal from that trauma. (the fact that while writing it for the first time gave me a panic attack u can imagine how much trauma it mist have given me)
You have no fuckin idea how much trauma of a lifetime you are giving to them in the name of “love”
Idk why another tweet for it. But just LEAVE THEM ALONE. PLEASE.
Also it’s a BIG ISSUE bc I didn’t know that several other women went through this when they were minors or were still going through it only until @badassflowerbby decided to write about last year. SO BIG THANKS TO HER.
