For the past year I've been going online to chatrooms. People asked me for a picture of me, so I gave it to them. Some of the people I talked to online about everyday. It was two or three of them. Eventually I became really uncomfortable with all my information out there, so I confessed that I lied to them & gave a fake picture and name to cover. I haven't really gone on for the past few weeks, I just really want to put the whole thing behind me. The whole ordeal has been about a year and a half, how can I get over the guilt and shame of the entire situation? In the long run would you consider it a big deal? How common is it?
