Do you think this is enough?

Many years ago, back when I was in high school, I did something that I am so ashamed of that I have never told anybody about it. However, it has come back to bite me and I don't know what to do.<br><br>When I was in high school, I was very insecure (I still am today). I was in a group chat of guys on messenger for some online game we played. My problem back then was that I was chubby. And these guys would always make fun of me for it.<br><br>One of the guys in the group was always talking about his hot gf. He would brag about how hot she was, show her pictures, would sometimes even do sexts on speakerphone while we all listened in on speakerphone. He even would sometimes show her pictures of other guys in the group to see if she thought they were hot (which only made those guys feel worse).<br><br>One day, I was talking with him 1 on 1 and he asked me if I wanted to see his gf naked. I said yes, but only if she was okay with it. He showed me a picture and I couldn't believe it. I asked him "you sure she is okay with me seeing this?" He said "no, I just showed you it on my own"<br><br>Fast forward 5-6 years later. This guy and I were just Facebook friends, we hadn't spoken in years, I had thought he had forgotten about this whole thing. Well, I received a message on facebook from a girl that I didn't know, but she did message me from a new account that had been made just the day before. She had 2 mutual friends with me, and one was this guy. Her profile picture was her face and it looked familiar. Could it be? The guy's gf from all those years ago? I took a look at her profile, and there were pictures of her and the guy I knew, holding hands and kissing, as well as 2 baby pictures. I pulled out the image he had sent all those years ago, and it was her. The baby pictures were her & him's baby. I deleted the image and did nothing with it. (To be fair, there was nowhere for me to submit it-to, as it was some random facebook chat image)<br><br>Well, I get another message not too long after from the guy himself. Said I needed to delete the image (which I had already done) and that I was a piece of shit for looking at his wife's profile. I told him I didn't do anything and that I didn't even know it was his wife when I first got messaged by her. He told me that his wife-to-be was going crazy, thinking he had sent me this image on purpose and that I needed to tell her it wasn't her husband's fault. I told her I didn't do anything with the image, that I hadn't even seen it until he sent it to me all those years ago unsolicited. And that after receiving the image, I had deleted it. I thought this would be enough, and I blocked both of them on facebook and moved on with my life. But the next day I get another message from her, saying how I'm a sicko for seeing her naked and how she feels violated. I told her again, that I didn't see it until he showed me it unsolicited. I even told her that I was much younger than her when he showed it to me, and that it was before they were even married, in case she was upset that her husband was showing her pictures to another guy while they were together. But none of this seemed to matter to her. She kept telling me how much of a sicko I was. I don't know what else I can tell her. I feel so bad that this has come back to bite me. Even though it's not my fault. I've been crying about it ever since.
