Dunno why people get so defensive with the pedophilia-related confessions. Unless someone admits to acting on it, which is something that I doubt will happen given the thread rules, people who reach out because they have no other way of expressing the situation they're fighting against deserve our support and sympathy as much as, say, someone suffering from depression. It's obvious for that previous confessor that it's not something they chose, and it's affecting them enough to reach out for support. I do urge them to find psychological help, though I admit I have no idea what the repercussions of that are.

To the person that sent this
As someone with OCD I know the pain of losing track of what are intrusive thoughts and what are my own, leading me to questions core things about myself.

I'll second this. It's the fucking worst.

I will also second the suggestion to seek counseling, though with one caveat: Be sure to look up mandatory reporting laws in your state. Depending on the laws and your current living/work situation you may run the risk of being reported.

Edit: That is, in the case that she does have an attraction to children. A lot of what she wrote sounds to me like OCD, but I'm not a mental health professional.
 
Mandatory reporting laws in therapy are really rather bad. They were implemented with the best of intentions but I cite the results of Berlin FS1, Malin HM, Dean S. (there might newer data that contradicts this, if so I'd be interested in knowing):
1) Mandatory reporting of disclosures about prior child sexual abuse deterred undetected adult abusers from entering treatment. The rate of self-referrals when such reporting became mandatory in 1989 dropped from approximately seven per year (73 over a 10-year period) to zero. This may have caused some unidentified children to remain at risk. 2) Mandatory reporting deterred patients' disclosures about child sexual abuse that occurred during treatment. In 1988 the disclosure rate during treatment dropped from approximately 21 per year to zero. This deprived clinicians of information important for early intervention. 3) Mandatory reporting failed to increase the number of abused children identified. The number identified secondary to such disclosures was zero.

That said, it's mandatory to report suspected child abuse, not people with pedophilic thoughts. Thoughts are not a crime and reporting that would breach confidentiality. Disclosing information about patients when it concerns non-criminal activity is to risk their job. Granted, when it comes to lolicon, the position of US law is not entirely clear.

Here's the American Psychological Association's page regarding confidentiality. In general, your privacy is pretty well protected.

As someone who's a licensed Elementary teacher, yeah, mandatory reporting laws are definitely a big deal.

When I was a moderator over on Nintendo's NSider forum, we had to report any incident of someone indicating suicidal or self-harm thoughts as well. That was always interesting.

I don't wish to derail the thread, but the standards for reporting vary, and some of them leave a lot to the discretion of the reporter. Check out Texas:

In addition, a person or professional shall make a report if the person or professional has cause to believe that an adult was a victim of abuse or neglect as a child, and the person or professional determines in good faith that disclosure of the information is necessary to protect the health and safety of another child or an elderly or disabled person.

Followed by:

Requirement to report applies without exception to an individual whose personal communications may otherwise be privileged, including an attorney, a member of the clergy, a medical practitioner, a social worker, a mental health professional, an employee or member of a board that licenses or certifies a professional, and an employee of a clinic or health-care facility that provides reproductive services.

In a proceeding regarding the abuse or neglect of a child, evidence may not be excluded on the ground of privileged communication except in the case of communication between an attorney and client.

I'm just saying, it's worth looking into. And, again, sorry to derail.

Side note, and possibly said, but I wonder if the reason Ronito passed on doing the thread this time, is that he has some stuff he wants to confess.

There wouldn't be anything wrong with that, of course.
And, after all the stuff he's seen, certainly couldn't blame him.
Just a thought.

He said he was already confessing things in his own threads.
 
fucked a friend's girlfriend multiple times. He doesn't know about it. We aren't best friends, but still on pretty good terms. He likes and comments on my facebook statuses all the time.

I was at a party where he got obliterated drunk, and his girlfriend started coming on to me. We went outside to smoke a cigarette, and started making out. Eventually he went home to pass out, and the girl and I fucked in another friend's bed. The next night, she invited me over. The guy passed out drunk again, and I fucked her on their basement couch.

We fucked two more times after that, and she was going to come visit me over the summer (I'm in LA, and they're in New York) to have week-long sex before I got a girlfriend and told her that this wasn't a good idea.

Dude still doesn't know. Every time he comments on one of my statuses I almost feel bad.

"Almost"??
 
Hey,
So here's something I've never told anybody.I probably have a fetish that no one else has. Probably. I have for the longest time only been able to jerk off to reversed videos. Ever since I've started to masturbate, I have been watching Youtube videos of reversed eating, speaking, singing, sports etc. I've even reversed porn before which which was surprisingly more arousing for me that way. Now that I've gotten older, I created a YouTube channel dedicated to the stuff and surprisingly I've had some of my videos reach millions of views because apparently people find them amusing though I never tell people the truth about why I post them. I've even made a couple thousand dollars off of it. Of course, I can get off to still photos and such but I only achieve the best finishes with reversed videos, That being for myself. I guess my question is, Is that weird?

They say if you play rock and roll records backwards, you can hear satanic murmurs.

What do you see?

My mind refuses to believe that confession is a real thing. That's the weirdest fetish I have ever heard of. All of a sudden I feel like I'm the most normal vanilla human being now. Congrats dude.

On the other hand maybe the author of the confession is expecting we'll look for this YouTube channel, figure out the owner, and then assume that's the confession guy, when it was all a construction by the actual uploader's worst enemy :O
 
You say you don't know if you'll ever love me. Was I stupid for not walking away the first time you told me this?

But now, we're together, and all I feel is guilty thinking that you might feel pressured to return these feelings. Now, I wish I didn't love you like I do.

I wake up every day hoping that the magic will be gone, the sparks will have faded. I never want to feel trapped again, but what I wouldn't give for these feelings would die. Everyone promised me that passion always dies, so can my heart just skip to that verse? I'd be with you in comfortable content, instead of fiercely loving you.

But maybe I only believe this because I love you...? If I walked away, if I gave someone else a chance to love me, someone who actually wanted to be with me, not because I am just good enough, but because they see me like I see you... am I missing out? Am I smothering something fiercely beautiful under weighted hope?

I don't know. Every time I think that I've had enough, you hold me and dawn breaks golden over the horizon.

Hahahahaha what?

She probably doesn't love you, dude. Or maybe she does. You should have presented this to her and seen where it went.

The confessor sent in some links to YouTube videos as well, but then a request asking me to not link them, soooo.... Hey, there are all types out there.
 
For the past two months, I've been pretending to be a highly attractive young woman on popular dating site OkCupid. I take pictures of myself in a wig and in my sister's clothes, then add copious amounts of PhotoShop. Of the 1700+ likes I've gotten and 433 messages I've received, only two people have called me out for manipulating the images that I'm in.

Using this platform, I keep stringing guys along for about a week at a time because I like having lots of random people to talk to all day who think I'm neat and cute looking.

I wonder where you'd be in life if you actually tried to be neat on your own merits.

Haven't they ever seen that movie 'The Big Bang' with Antonio Banderas and McPoyle? Actually, I've had a professor admit to pretending to be female on the internet sometimes. He said it was interesting how he was received when people thought he was a woman.

Admittedly, I haven't been lurking around on OT as much as I used to, but what's up with the 'doozies' fear?...Or do I actually not want to know?

Also, good luck and godspeed, NtGYK.
 
Welp, one day in and already this is getting incredibly weird. Probably the first confession that came in that I'm probably not willing to post cause of how bizarre it is. You gotta be fake, Pokemon-Lady.

But hey, we got some interesting ones coming up in this thread later today after I get off work.

It will change your view of humanity for the worst. I can't find a link, but it was in the previous confessions thread IIRC.

So glad this is back. My lunch hour thanks you. Godspeed, NTGYK.

You'll share it with us eventually. GAF's hunger for the weird and disturbing knows no bounds.

Confessor decries society's hypocrisy about
being sexually attracted to a Mass Effect character and a Pokemon (Pokemon have human intelligence!?), and then details their fantasies about wanting to do the nasty with a horse. Not just any dirty horse though. A clean, perfume smelling horse with the mind of a human.

Well.. that's sure something. At least they like their horses clean and intelligent!

I vaguely also remember an HIV confession? Or did that end up being fake?

Oh, you mean this?

Edit: Also, I should say that if you feel it's fake, then you definitely shouldn't clog up the thread with it NTGYK, but if it's just bizarre...

Also, you should probably not listen to anyone in this thread regarding what and what not to post.

Edit 2: TOO LATE

Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiine, guilt-trip me.

hi,

so this may seem weird, but ive always wondered why so many people are okay with sexual relationships in the mass effect games, but have such a hard time with other non-human relationships. For example, why do they hate Krystal so much? Probably even weirder, what is the difference between being attracted to one of the Mass Effect-chicks and, say, some Pokemon? Both are cases of intelligent, human-minded beings, only difference that the latter cannot talk. But isnt it intelligence that should make for attraction?

But personally I went a step further. Ive already fantasized about having sex with a horse. But not some stinky real horse. I imagined it to be a clean, parfume-covered, cute horse with a human-like mind (maybe like Celestia). And thats kinda hot. Tbh, I dont know what im confessing here for again, I guess I just wanted to point out some of the hypocricy going around.

Honestly, it deals with an issue of consent, in that, ANIMALS CANNOT GIVE INFORMED CONSENT, SO DON'T DO IT.

Also, who is Krystal?

That's a lot less extreme than I imagined =/ and he's talking about a human-intelligent horse, who'd be able to give consent, duh. Search for Krystal yourself, and leave safe search off, for fun times.

don't
