Versions of Me 2









We'll just call this Versions of Me Part 2. To some I'm a bad ass, free spirit who ended up breaking hearts and to others I was made a complete fool. Let’s rewind to the moment that all this changed for me, shall we?

Several of these pictures were on a Russian dating site in 2015. It was found by a reverse image search and when I went in to see what was going on, I was in absolute shock. My name was Anastasia and I was being paid for dates and sex. Someone had leaked and copied my images and put me on there. I was so incredibly embarrassed. I contacted the site and managed to get Anastasia taken down, but that experience taught me some pretty valuable lessons in life.

When I see my old pictures, I see a girl who was a hopeless romantic and wanted love but was taken advantage of by guys who had no capacity to hold her heart. I’ll say this much, I never once cheated on anyone. I never immediately jumped into relationships. I always celebrated and enjoyed my independence. The loudest are usually the ones who treated me the worst. Embarrassing me, bullying me, does nothing. I’ve been called the absolute worst things imaginable to my face. If there’s one thing that I’m not afraid to do is tell everyone who I am, what I’ve done, and what I've been through. With that though, I'm not her anymore and that's my past. I do want to give her a hug though for doing the best she could with what she knew.
