Hello i live in British Columbia canada. i was on a dating site and I got a phone number from a person who I thought was a consensual adult. I'm 43 and she said she was 38. We exchanged some sex texts (explicit sex texts, I exchanged one explicit photo of me, other did not). later in the conversation I discovered discovered thst this was a kid (said 10 or 11). i abruptly ended the text conversation. Am i in a legal issue? i feel really embarrassed, stupid and worried. My gut says probably not, but I want to be sure.

I'm sorry, but this forum is for US law matters only. In the future, I would suggest that you actually know a person before engaging in this sort of behaviour.

Where is the child located? How did you "discover" the childs age?

For all i could know this could be a scam to lure people. i feel really ashamed (suffer from depression), need to know that I am not in a legal issue. thanks.

Once again - this forum is for US LAW MATTERS ONLY.
 
Here's what I think: your photo turned her off. She was not enticed by your selfie/D-pic/whatever image you sent her. Upon receiving something like that, I would immediately reply with whatever I felt would end the communication. I absolutely would say I am underage, or a dying old man, or a hungry cannibal. Think about it.
