To suddenly be turned off?

No judgement please, I am a 31 year old consenting adult. I have a professional job, a full life, plenty of confidence and respect for myself.

I met someone on OLD about a year ago. I'm not sure how it happened but we began sexting/sending pictures. Have never met and have no desire/plans to meet. Have never pretended it was anything more than what it was which is a bit of online fun.

It was very much him dominating and me submissive. Lots of demands to send pics/he owns me/calls me slut etc. I have enjoyed it and so played along with it and just thought this was something I was into that I hadn't tried before.

However, almost overnight I would receive a text and just be Icked out by it and almost repulsed. Like now when he calls me 'slur' or 'bitch' I just cringe and/or feel angry and insulted.

I honestly went from enjoying it to absolutely not enjoying it. I can't keep up with constant demands of pics etc and I just don't want to.

He has noticed a decrease in engagement from me and will send me things like, 'don't make daddy punish you whore' etc. ughhh.

So my question is, AIBU to just block without explanation? Is this normal to enjoy something one day and just be so disgusted by it the next? I was really really into it and would enjoy it all until a light just switched.

Just block him if you're not into him/whatever you were up to with him.
You don't owe him an explanation really.
Or you could just text "sorry this isn't working for me anymore, not into it, I'm going to block you and won't be in touch, please don't try to contact me.

I'm not sure what you want people to say?

Just tell him you're not into it anymore and then block him.

He'll find someone else to 'play with'.

I can’t fathom how you got any enjoyment from this. A year?!!

OP…. Just end it. And if you receive anything more - block

Strawberryboost · 06/09/2023 17:23

You say you are full of confidence

well channel some of that confidence in… welll being confident

As with most things, if you’re not enjoying it anymore stop doing it! Probably best to send some kind of explanation before you block so
that there can be not doubt it’s harassment if he
tries to keep the relationship. Does he know your address? Work address? Any other way he
might contact you?

I'd tread a bit carefully if he has identifiable photos of you but you can still tell him the truth-that it's nothing personal but it no longer turns you on.

Elfandwellbeing · 06/09/2023 18:00

Agree explain no more communication please. Then block, I hope he has nothing to identify you.

neverbeenskiing · 06/09/2023 18:09

It sounds like it was actually the novelty of something new and a bit different that excited you and once that novelty wore off you realied you weren't really into it after all. No big deal, just block and move on. You don't owe him anything, you've never even met.

CalistoNoSolo · 06/09/2023 18:11

Jesus, you sent pictures to a random stranger? Are they at all identifying? At best you've been very foolish and yes, I do think you need to tread very carefully here.
