Seeking advice on this
I'm in college and this guy messaged me on social media-he's also my classmate. So, I kept being polite with him until he asked about my birthday and I told him the date-I probably shouldn't have done that though. Now, he's telling everyone in our class that I was trying to get involved or show interest, which is why I shared my birthday. It feels weird for me to have revealed something so personal-it wasn't like I had any other reason to tell him.
Also, he shared all of our messages with the whole class, and they didn't even contain anything inappropriate. I was just being honest and upfront with him. This has really made me anxious, and I've skipped college for two days now because I don't know how to deal with everything that's going on. Maybe someoe could give me some advice on what to do next?

he's def a bully and not worth ur time. but it's easy to say that. if u skipped college, u should tell them abt the issue. i'd tlk 2 a female there rite? idk if there are other supportive class members u can bond with over "i konw, isn't he pathetic?" kinda stuff & try 2 laugh it off. sorry for the caps lol. big fingers & a lock in the wrong spot!
I totally get where you're coming from, it's really tough to deal with this knd of situation. The thing is, if you let yourself stay upset about it, these people will keep poking at those raw spots and prolong your healing process. It might just be better to move on and not look back-letting go can sometimes be the healthiest opton. Talking to a lecturer could help, but it might also stir up more issues.
If anything you've shared was sensitive or about past relationships, it's good to know that the damage seems pretty much done now. So maybe just set boundaries and keep your priavcy intact when people try to pry?
