is it okay if as a young adult woman you had few minor friends?
you are a fan of a music group, and usually it's something teens are fond of more than adults even tho anyone can be a fan, and some of them went to talk to you because you showed some creativity in the fandom.
during high school your friend group always been treating you poorly probably because of racism so having people that wanna share things with you makes you happy, you share about your lifes and casually met abt this passion.
you also have friends your age that you met at university, some older met on social media and also rly long friendship from childhood and some people that want to reconnect with you after long time.
there is absolutely no way you would involve in other than friendship with them, no pedophilia here and also because you understood recently you are aromantic and asexual. you see yourself as an older sister to them.
sadly more you learn about each other, they start being manipulative and abusive towards you, but who would believe the adult is the one being abused? they force you to do what they want (go fight someone for them to put you in a bad situation/only care to ask favors and don't care about your feels because they know you can't say no/lie and gaslight about what they did in your back) you realize how teens can lack emotional intelligence but it's destroying you because you take antidepressants. now i only have adult friends, but even the one that don't have frontal lobe yet still display some teen behavior that sometimes give me the ick if that makes sense.
and yet i still feel like i'm the bad person in there because of the age imbalance and me being the older one
