Not really sure about the right location for this so im sorry if this is incorrect!

I broke up with my ex last year and afterwards I found out she had showed and sent friends private stuff online of me. Its completely unprovoked and the thing that was sent round basically makes me look bad. It was edited and showed myself looking really small and soft. Sorry for the crudeness but im so not a shower like that and its basically made me so anxious and self conscious that the last twice ive slept with someone I haven't been able to get it up! Embarrassed degraded and anxious about next time. Advice or blunt truth I guess im looking for .😥

this was over a year ago though and its probably been way too long for that now and I fear that would only make my anxiety way more intense. stuck between a rock and a soft place it seems lol

There is no time limit for this offence to be dealt with.

“stuck between a rock and a soft place it seems lol”

Maybe you should see someone about that humiliation fetish.

and people think women are saints and no woman would do this.

Why are you coming onto a site predominantly used by women and dropping creepy jokes if this did happen I'm sorry.

But making these references to women is not going to help you and frankly it's a bit creepy
