What if your nudes with your face on ever got leaked?

I've sent some, by some I mean like 50+, nudes with my face on with a guy some time ago. We weren't dating but we were kinda like fwbs. Yet after I have met my boyfriend I stopped talking with the guy and asked him to delete my nudes. I don't know of he deleted them in the end but I'm concerned. What to do if they ever got leaked?

  • Do you know how the guy you sent them to feels about you not talking with him now? And how much do you know about the guy? Is he someone that gets angry easily or likes to get revenge on people? Or is he a nice decent considerate guy?

    My guess would be that most guys are respectable enough that they would not share those pictures widely like posting them on a web site. Probably he'll keep them and maybe look at them if he's not in relationship. Maybe he'd show them to some friends (but that could have happened even while you were still in contact with him). But unless he's a jerk or someone prone to fits of anger or revenge and is mad at you about ending contact with him, I think the chances that he put them somewhere public are low. I think in some places doing that would even be illegal, but of course that probably wouldn't stop an angry type guy from doing it and wouldn't help your embarrassment if he ever did post them somewhere.

    If the guy does ever leak them, there's not a lot you can do. You could check if it's illegal where you are and prosecute him if so. You could try contacting the web site where he posted them to ask them to delete them. But of course all of that calls more attention to them and links them to you, plus once they're posted other people can download them so even having them removed doesn't really get rid of them everywhere.

    You are now realizing why you should never share nudes, especially nudes with your face showing, with ANYONE. As life goes on, relationships change and people you're very close to and trust now can become people you have no contact with or potentially even people that hate you. Relationships are more likely to fail than to succeed and most people go through several relationships before finding the person they stay with for life so any time you share nude pics with someone, you're taking a significant risk that at some point in the future someone you're no longer close to or even like has nude pics of you.

    Given where you are now, my opinion is that most likely (unless that guy is a jerk), the risk of those nudes being shared publicly is probably low, but that guy is probably going to keep them. I don't think you should lie awake at night worrying about them, but hopefully you've learned not to ever do that again and hopefully will share with others what you've learned to potentially save them from future embarrassment.

  • First of all, sue the guy for leaking you photos, he has no right to.
    To any judgment that comes from family/society/friends, say fuck them all, they all are hipocrite judgmental pervys hahaha.
    Assume your sexuality!

    • But not all countries have that law? And tbh if my nudes ever got leaked my family would flip bc they are quite conservative...

    • Well, then get to know your country laws hahaha. As I said, hypocrites. They have their way to express their sexuality. Why wouldn't they accept yours? All the women in your family took up the ass and sucked cock, who are they to judge?

  • My guess is half the guys would not have kept them long anyway. Most of the other half would keep them and do nothing.

    There are the odd one or two guys that will post them on an amateur porn site for all to see.

    Just hope this guy, with your nudes, is NOT one of those.

    • But for the ones who keep them and do nth, what if they accidentally leaked the pics bc of hackers or I don't know werid things happend on their phone?

    • It is unlikely they will accidentally be shared or leaked. Chances are virtually zero. The issue is with the mind-frame of the one or two guys that will post them just for the sheer hell of it. At least if they ARE ever posted, you will know where they came from, and can take appropriate action against them.

    • Thank you for your advice! This does calms me down. Thank you fro replying

  • You shouldn’t have done it in the first place but we can't do anything about that anymore. If he ever does spread it, you can't do anything about it but to face the consequences (people talking behind your back, people judging, people slut shaming, etc).

    • It happened a whole ago tbh but this just hits me again after seeing a post about people leaking nudes. I have tried and search myself using google image search but I found nothing so I'm assuming I'm alright?

    • *while

    • That’s okay i understand completely. We’ve all done something in the past we wish we didn't now. Have you tried talking to the guy again? If he’s a real good one then he will not leak the photos.

  • Well, there's really nothing you can do if they are released... But you were single at the time, so at least your boyfriend should get that part, but he probably still get angry. That's why you should never like ever send nudes with your face on it. Even if they are for your boyfriend. One day you might break up and he could use them to get back at you or simply someone grabs his phone and look at them accidentally. Never send nudes or sexy pics with your face on it. Ne-ver

  • If they ever get leaked deny that it's you , even if your name is there, it could be a doppelganger.

    • I've thought about that but I've got specific features on my face that people would know its me so rip lol

    • Ah , you'd like to think that you have distinguishing features, but there are at least 7 people right now who look exactly like you , if a fact I read on some website is actually true 😂.

  • What you can do depends on where you live. If you lived in England it would be a crime to make your nudes publicly available, but once it's been done then any prosecution comes too late. It's already been done and you'd just be limiting the damage as best you can.

    If you don't want your nudes to get out then don't share nudes. If you already have then you have to hope that the recipient has some integrity and some emotional control.

  • Well, him being a friends with benefits instead of a ex boyfriend is a good thing.
    Means that he probably don't hate your guts and won't try to take revenge on your or anything of that sort.
    He's probably not going to delete them.
    But ask him to keep them to himself at least or to only show them to friends in person if he has to share them, and *not* digitally.
    And to only store them in a device that is not connected to the internet and most importantly *not* in the cloud.

    If they end up out in the open then there's nothing you can do to stop them from spreading.
    However if you find them on a particular website you can usually remove them from *that* website with the law in your hands.
    In the US you can use things like copyright laws to deal with that I believe.
    And in my own country sharing a picture of someone without their consent is against the law.
    In general either the site itself will comply and take down the picture or the server that hosts the website with the pictures will comply and if neither does you can contact a lawyer.
    And there's services online that will help you take down your picture from many sites at once and make them harder to search for.

    That said, once online they *will* be out there forever for better and worse.

    If it's a regular nude I wouldn't be too worried.
    I mean, sure there are occational cases of people not getting a job after a potential boss found their pictures after doing a casual search for you before a work interview etc...

    The more important bit is that you're honest with your boyfriend/husband about their existance so he won't get a negative surprise if he ever find them.
    And that you have relationship with your kids when you get them that allow you to talk with them about this kind of things so they don't start to assume that you where a porn acctress or some such... (or rather just in general that they don't freak out at it)

    On the whole, a regular nude isn't a big deal and there's millions if not billions of them out there.
    Kinky ones are a different matter...
    People have lost jobs and even lost custody of their children because they've been outed as kinky :-/
    The BDSM community in many countries are where the gay community was 50 years ago...

  • You have the freedom the do what ever you want so don't overthinking about it and with time No one cares about girls nudes because there's a lot of them everywhere,,,,

    • Yes you are right and now day boys nudes also

    • Thank you. This calms me a bit. Thank you for your words.

    • Just relax dear

  • You have no control over if he still has them, and no control over if the might show up at some point. Being as you have no control over it, the best thing to do, is just put it aside, and don't think about it, as best you can. There are many nudes on the internet, and even if they do get there, it's likely that nobody you know will even see them.

  • It's a crime here but you'll be shamed by the society nevertheless.

    • You are right

  • Prepare witty comebacks to quiet morons down. Like "Yeah I know you're not used to seeing girls naked but please keep it in your pants" or something. Because people are always gonna talk shit. They can't help it.

    • That's a good comeback tbh

  • All u can do is say u sent them when you was young and dumb

  • There's not a chance in hell he deleted those.
    Once you send someone your nude photo there's nothing else you can do. It could turn up, you never know. Technically it could already be out there on some porn site, it's just that no one you know has yet come across it and recognize you. Tons of strangers may have already seen your naked body.

  • "Hey, yeah, look at me! I am a normal human too!"

    That would be my reaction.

  • Wouldn't really care honestly. I don't see what's wrong about people seeing me naked.

  • It would likely end up in one of the nude picture sites. There is so much nudity on internet so unless someone specifically tries to find you will probably not encounter someone that recognizes you

  • Denounce it to the police, for example.

  • wouldn't be too concerned xD pretty sure nobody cares enough to find them xD

    • Hm you sure? I'm really concerned atm tho. Probably my anxiety acting up.

    • to be honest, if i had your nudes and we just had a casual sex thing going but now you had a boyfriend, i wouldn't delete the nudes xD but i would also not upload them or whatever xD just keep them for my own sight xD

    • Well if he wouldn't upload them I'm already fine with it. I'm just hoping that he got a new friends with benefits and found her hotter so he would delete mine just to have storage for that girl's nudes lmao

  • I don't think you can really do anything about it, you send it to him knowing the risks

    • True... But what I sent them to him with the idea that he's trustworthy? :( I mean I wouldn't send to him if I can't trust him in the first place.

  • no problem

    • It's no problem for u cause ur a dude. all of ur answers scream that ur not a chick. Lmao.

  • Dont do it.

    • But I already did... What should I do if he ever leaked them?

    • Oh shoot! Well lets just hope he doesn't.

    • :((tbh this happened a while ago and I have searched myself on boodle image search but nth was found so I'm assuming he didn't leak them?
