Does this send out alarm bells or is it me being paranoid

Five day ago I turned 18 so now everybody has access to my PM’s which is ok. But I have been getting lots of massages from guys who I don’t know me send me massages with “hi gorgeous or sweetheart” with these emojis 🥰 😉 💕 and even present. Is it normal to feel a bit uncomfortable with these guys or am I just being a snob. When I get massages from strangers that just say “hi how are you” I usually reply and ask how they are if I have time 🤷‍♀️

It is a matter of creating your own personal boundaries before the creeps make them for you. It is normal to either mute or block someone that comes on too strong. It is a privilege to be in your inbox anyways.

@Pfuzylogic I didn’t look at it like that, it’s true what you say. I don’t think they are being very respectful.

@ChloeYoung
On the adult side here you have your own back. If you aren’t treated with respect the way you like it then cut them off. This is no time to try and please everyone. You will be exploited that way.
Edit: That includes men and women.

@ChloeYoung Just wait until they start pestering you for nudes - they can always be worse!!!

@HootyTheNightOwl She has to much going on to be jerked around like that.

@Pfuzylogic I understand - though they never think that the last thing we want is to see them nude or to be pestered for pictures that we don't want to send.

I had to block a guy for calling me "Sexy" last night. He didn't wise up after I pulled him up on it.

@HootyTheNightOwl I am concerned about a need for acceptance causing exploitation

@Pfuzylogic Hopefully, she will find a way to balance being safe and accepted. It's a fine line at times.

@Pfuzylogic Yeah I’ve noticed that. Guys must appreciate that young girls get bombarded with massages daily. If we were to try to reply to them all we wouldn’t be here for the reasons we want to be
