Hello, I would like your opinion on my request.
I once met a woman who I thought was really sweet. She was rather inconspicuous and sweet/nerdy in appearance.
At some point we got talking about a certain topic called gore content and videos. When I asked her about it, she said that she knew it and watched it. I then asked her why and she said that she doesn't like what you see in these videos but that she wants to learn from the mistakes of others.
I understand that people can be curious, but to voluntarily watch something like that and look for it, I find extremely unempathetic and reprehensible. I don't care about that in fiction and that's not the issue here.
In the end, it really destroyed my image of her as I described and saw her, and then she also works with children and animals. It still doesn't leave me completely in peace to this day, knowing that she has such a side and that there are of course more people like her.
I no longer have any contact with her because things didn't work out between us for other reasons. But I'm finding it very difficult to move on from this event, so I wanted to ask you for advice:
-
How would you deal with her revelation?
-
How would you come to terms with it and move on?
Thanks in advance for reading and for the comments.
