I lied about being in college for a year and a half to get a woman to sleep with me.

I was an 18 year old when I met this girl. I was in a very unstable time in my life, I had just lost my job and my dad had died. And this woman made me feel like I was worth something, and I’m pretty sure she was the only person who saw me as an equal. She was a college student and one day she told me she was a lot older than me, she was 22. I had already fallen for her, so yeah, I’m stupid. I didn’t want her to see me as a child so I told her I was going to school too. For the rest of the relationship I lied about being in school. I would walk her to her classes, and I would tell her about “my” classes. During the summer when she was home with her family, I would lie to her and tell her about my “summer school classes.” She knew everything about my fake schedule.<br><br>After a year, she came back to my town. She stayed with me for a few days and I would drive her to the mall or some other places. She asked me why I wasn’t in school when the semester had already started. I told her I didn’t know what I wanted to study yet. We hooked up all weekend, I never had much luck with women but she made me feel like I was attractive.<br><br>The day she was supposed to go back home, she refused. She said she wanted to stay with me, and I wasn’t going to say no. She was beautiful, smart and amazing, and I was stupid and didn’t know what I had. I knew she wanted to have sex with me. And I didn’t because she was in a different level than me. I was scared that she would to see me as a stupid child if we had sex. But she stayed with me and I finally had sex with her, it was my first time. And after that she wouldn’t leave my side, she would say that I was hers, and I was stupid and thought she was telling the truth. She ended up staying for months, until I had to confess I didn’t go to college. She cried, I cried and she left. I haven’t seen her in 5 years, but I still love her. I’m not in a good place right now ,and I still don’t understand what I did wrong.<br><br>Edit: I don’t understand what’s so hard to believe. It’s the truth, and I feel so bad, I don’t know why I’m getting so many upvotes.
