Namaste good peeps
Do you know that feeling when you think you
have finally met the one, finally found potential bae, future husband basically
your everything but then reality happens and you realize that all the
baecations, dinner dates and shopping sprees you could have had won’t happen
because you lack that Tlaudi thing. My loves don’t feel embarrassed about it, I
was also a victim but now I’m stronger because I survived which means you also
will.
You are probably asking yourself what
catfishing is well people don’t stress catfishing is basically luring someone
into a relationship by pretending to be someone you not.
How does one get catfished
Catfishing happens in many ways honeys and it’s
certainly not a victimless crime and I won’t lie there are many problems caused
by it.
1. If
they can tell that you are vulnerable
2. Disclosing intimate information easily and always willing to help no matter the situation.

Dangers of catfishing
catfishers don’t know the dangers they cause not
just the dangers but also the damage they do, the danger that stood out for me
when that looser catfished me was emotional damage it’s dangerous because it
involves all the raw emotions associated with love and relationships because
here I was thinking I’ve found my prince charming LOL even planned my wedding that’s
how serious I thought it was I was so emotionally invested to that hypocrite.
The damage they cause can even lead to suicide
I won’t lie people I considered that I was so embarrassed, angry at myself I
felt so dirty and cheap.
How to prevent it
By not
giving out personal information no matter how whipped you are.
Don’t trust anyone especially if you don’t know
them from face to face encounters the way people lie these days it’s on another
level even politicians can’t compete with these lies we are told people.
Less emoji’s more face time tell potential bae to show you his face.
Remember that there is no such thing as the
perfect person if it looks too good to be true
than it probably is child trust your instincts.
Where can you go for help
The nice thing is that we are students but if
you are not its fine no need to panic because I’ve got you boo.
Students can call or text the cyberbullyhotline any time, day or night isn’t that cool or call saveTnet they are always
ready to help.
Thank you lala.

Deletethank you for informing us i wish someone could have informed me earlier before i felt for that catfisher the way that guy lied to me and i believed everything he said the problem started when we had to meet he kept giving me lame excuses all the time but now im over it the only problem is the nudes i sent him im not sure what will that pervert do with them but thanks for this at-least i know im not alone.
ReplyDeletemy pleasure MD and im sorry you had to go through that to learn that not everyone has good intentions when it comes to love and the nudes lets hope he wont use them to catfish someone else.. be better and strong everything will work out.
DeleteIndeed cat fishing is really a serious matter many people face but afraid to speak it out.Thank you for having taken your time to provide us with this helpful information.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you find this information helpful Audrey and i hope people would stop being afraid and speak about such things so that more awareness could be generated.
Deletelol kill me again please..you know what you have went through is practically what I have went through, thinking that I have found that one guy ive been waiting for my whole life,whom I will love and cherish for the rest of my life, only to find out that the guy was just a hypocrite who pretended to be someone he was not even close to be like.The disappointment nearly killed me,but thank you again for reminding us that lunatics still do exists.
ReplyDeletelol Neo i"m glad I have someone who shares the same views and experiences when it comes to catfishing these guys were never ready for us because we are now stronger then ever and we must never allow them to do this to us ever again.
DeleteLol ey this BAE thing is killing us honestly. it is painful to invest all your feelings and then boom! bye-bye fun and "love", the time I was cat fished that person ended up stalking me because I stopped talking to him, because he didn't want us to or let alone send me his pictures, and I thought to myself this is not real let's forget about it but that lead to being stalked by my catfisher.
ReplyDeleteGreat read,too many people miss the fact that cat-fishing is motivated by revenge,loneliness,curiosity and boredom. What may be an "escape" or a game to one person can quickly filter into the real lives of teens and young adults.This matter can destroy lot of people,so i'm glad you trying to prevent this.
ReplyDeleteim glad you enjoyed it Mbali and i hope you learned something from this im glad i could help save a life
Deletehahahaha Nomvuyo at least you tried to be the runaway girl but not for long me I couldn't stay away from the guy I knew something was wrong but still I just didn't want to admit it but at the end I got over that creep and he didn't even try to contact me cause he knew I was ready for him.
