I’m talking to this girl and I really like her but my ocd is telling me she is lying about her age (18)

That sucks😭 im assuming you’ve asked her yourself? How did you met? are you going to college? (You don’t have to answer this im asking because if you’re both going to college then you both should be around college age and nothing to worry about)
@ughhhh Nah we both are taking gap years. We met over the phone. and I did ask myself she said she graduated high school and said she is 18
@notrich I see, im assuming your around the same age and this is like a long distance thing. I say trust her but also be cautious like any internet interaction should be. If you’ve known each other for awhile maybe send selfies! Exchange social media if you trust each other enough to maybe calm yourself. Ik ocd goes after things/ppl we care about so i think this might be one of those situations.
If someone seems borderline legal age I feel it is good to go a extra step or two to make sure they are legal age to avoid any possible misunderstandings.
Do you know any of her friends? I met my partner on Discord (can you believe it!) and my OCD went full HAYWIRE. OCD had me convinced he was a killer, a kidnapper, a serial cheater, a catfish, you name it! What did help me fight these fears, however, was knowing his friends who could verify for his identity. Turns out he was just as lovely and amazing as the man I met online! ☺️
I’ve been diagnosed with ocd but sometimes I think I’m faking or I don’t actually, but idk if that’s the ocd tricking me or if it’s true
I feel disgusted saying this, but I think my ocd attacks younger kids that look pretty or something (not attractive),, and it makes me feel attracted, even saying this makes me feel like a pred, and I feel really grossed out, I feel like a bad person for even suggesting such a thing and I’m spiraling. Please help…
I've just started dating this really great girl. She doesn't know about my ocd which is fine but I've noticed that a lot of my intrusive thoughts and worries about not following routines now revolve around losing her or her believing I'm a bad person. I just don't want this relationship to make me so paranoid. I also know have this where if I see a girl on my Instagram or on the Internet, I'll feel an overwhelming urge to clean myself and the device I viewed it on. This is part of a moral reaction and I also worry I'm not being loyal. I feel I should try and not follow through with these compulsions but as they now revolve around keeping my girlfriend I'm not sure. Any advice?
