Adorable – a number of years ago, when i was post sem (a very frum seminary)I went to college and started liking rock music and movies. (no not terrible movies or heavy metal rock but still it was not for a bais yaakov girl) I did not compromise any other area of frumkeit ex: Shabbos, kashrus, tznius, etc. I did not hang around with guys either. Actually I knew a number of frum ppl who went through the same stage. NO I WAS NOT OTD. Sometimes you just get caught up in something that’s not so good for you. Baruch Hashem it did not affect me. I am married and have children and we lead a beautiful Torah life.

So like most other ppl on this thread, I’m not quite sure to what you are referring. But you did mention that you’ve read things and have seen things on the internet that you feel are inappropriate. It’s great that you stopped. Now concentrate on who you really are. You surely have a lot going for you. Especially if those things are making you feel so badly. That shows you have a true Yiddishe neshama. Don’t be so hard on yourself. We can all work on ourselves. Hatzlacha Rabba to you.
