I (32M) slept with my intern (21F) and now I’m feeling guilty.

So yeah… I don’t really know how to process this and I need to say it somewhere anonymously.

I’m 32M and a couple months ago I was supervising a 21F intern. We got along really well from the start she’s smart, funny, hardworking, and honestly a lot more mature than I expected. Over time we got closer. We grabbed coffee after work, texted outside office hours, and there was some harmless flirting that just felt natural, not forced.

Her internship recently ended, and she’s no longer working at my company. Yesterday we ended up sleeping together. It was completely consensual she was comfortable, happy, and I’m not going to lie, it was amazing for both of us. There was no awkwardness in the moment and everything felt right.

But today I woke up with this weird guilt sitting in my head. I don’t know if it’s the age gap, the ex-professional boundary, or if I’m just overthinking. She’s an adult, she knew what she wanted, I didn’t manipulate her, and she wasn’t under my authority anymore when we slept together.

At the same time, another part of me really likes her. Not “I’m in love” level, but I genuinely like her as a person. I want to see her again. She wants that too she texted me this morning like everything is totally normal, while my brain is spinning.

I also want to help her get a good job somewhere else, because I do care about her future and I have contacts that could help. But I also don’t want to be that guy who abuses a dynamic or crosses boundaries, even unintentionally

A Cinematic Masterpiece: 'Halkara' Deserves More Recognition

 So, the weekend is almost over and Sunday is always special to me. In a sense, I was always wandering, taking myself on a trip to the valley. This story is quite different and interesting. In the middle of my journey, I felt ready and motivated to write about it, so here it goes. This story is about a single movie that inspired me to write. I had no plans to watch a Nepali movie called 'Halkara,' which had recently been released. As I passed by midtown, I wasn't prepared to watch it, but I found myself at the ticket counter buying a ticket for myself. When I bought the ticket, there were only five people who had booked the show, and all the seats were empty. The show was scheduled to start at 12:30 pm, and I entered the hall. Finally, the movie started. I cannot describe how amazing the cinematography, storyline, characters, acting, and overall vibe of this movie were. I still can't believe that this movie didn't receive a good response from...

Fall in love with me.

 In every moment, through highs and lows, my love for you remains unwavering. No matter what life throws at us, I want you by my side . Let's face everything together, carry each other's burdens, and keep our love strong Whether times are good or bad, I selfishly want you by my side. I just want us to stay together in 2024, like we used to, filled with love and adventures. We know the timing wasn't great, so let's be patient and wait for things to get better. Our connection, first kiss, and love experiences are special. I've never been as comfortable with anyone else as I am with you. Everything we do together feels new and exciting. We both know finding something like us is rare. I don't know how many times you've ignored my messages, but at least I am an older than you. I feel a responsibility to make you happy or correct some of your immature thoughts. Sometimes, being older is a good option. All I'm going to say is I love you and I will. Ignore me, b...

To the person who read this

To the person who read this, It’s been hard for you, I know, and it makes me sad that you don’t see yourself in the way I see you. Sometimes they are things in life that cause us to loose ourselves, and the way you have is so unimaginable painful. I miss your smile, the way your eyes light up the whole room just by the sound of your laughter. I miss the way you accepted the way you look in the mirror without cursing yourself out about how ugly you look. I miss the way you didn’t think of yourself as a failure because everyone makes mistakes, we all have flaws and we all aren’t perfect. It’s painful to see that no one around you seems to see the pain trough your eyes, but, stranger, I do, I see how heavy your heart is and how comforting the sadness for you might be, how afraid your heart is of happiness because it disappears in the end, right? You don’t know how much impact you have in this world and it’s sad to see that your demons fight against you and want to take over you. Because y...
