"I'm not attracted to you at all, to be honest.'' ''And I don't really believe that's true, to be honest.'' *** Ellie Hepburn wasn't really candid to herself recently. She pretended to be happy and to live a fantastic life, but that was just an illusion. In reality: her life sucked at the moment. Big time. Her parents were in the middle of getting divorced, she didn't really enjoy hearing her best friend and her boyfriend dancing the ''passionate flamenco'' together in a toilet cabin, and she certainly didn't adore her ex-childhood friend- who was now her personal nemesis-, Aidan Knight, annoying the bloody rest out of her. But what happened when she was forced to work together with him in the organisation team for the upcoming school festival and they have to spend, uhm, almost everyday together? Everything seemed to change, Aidan was becoming cockier and cockier (unfortunately also hotter and hotter) each day, and teenage hormones were swirling around in the air like snowflakes on a winter day. Of course, she would never be interested in someone like Aidan. Then again, Ellie Hepburn wasn't really candid to herself recently. Copyright © 2014

These are Wattpad members' experiences regarding "slut" shaming and sexual bullying. You can now submit your experience to be a chapter in this collection in the form of a VIDEO - or as a drawing, poster, collage, or any other type of visual art. Just message me a link (send it to @emilylindin). If you've already submitted a chapter and want to add a multimedia element, let me know and we can make that happen, too. I started The UnSlut Project in 2013 by sharing my own middle school diary entries, from when I was targeted as the school "slut", here on Wattpad. This collection expands the project to include the shared experiences of the Wattpad community, whether the writer has been the victim or witness of sexual bullying or "slut" shaming, or whether they just want to share their thoughts. As these essays demonstrate, these issues have affected and continue to affect many of our lives in deep, often dangerous ways. If you're currently being sexually bullied, you're not alone. It gets better. Please use these stories to expand your understanding of this widespread problem, and comment respectfully. To learn more about The UnSlut Project, including "UnSlut: A Documentary Film," go here: http://www.unslutproject.com IMPORTANT: some of these experiences are quite disturbing and might include triggering material. If you are in physical or mental danger, considering suicide, or feel otherwise unsafe, please use these resources: http://support.wattpad.com/hc/en-us/articles/200774284-Counseling-and-Prevention-Resources
