While looking at a girls facebook i saw she had an instagram, so i went to that and saw she had a linktree, I had the thought of what if she has an onlyfans account and clicked the linktree, turns out shes just a normal girl who is a realtor lol, a beautiful one so good for her!

Im wrestling with this now, part of me thinks this was venial because i never clicked on any bad content, but part of me wonders if i crossed a line by wondering if she had sexual content. any help?
 
I can't get into your head and know what you were thinking. This is really something better discussed with a priest in confession.

Merely wondering if she had an OnlyFans account, all by itself, would seem not to have any sinful intent.
 
so basically thinking maybe she has one and clicking to see her links wouldnt be a grave sin unless i actually clicked on an onlyfans link, whether she had one or not? im probably overthinking this thanks
 
I can't answer those questions. You need to talk to a priest.

The only thing I would say, is that you probably shouldn't concern yourself with the thought of whether she has an OnlyFans account or not in the first place. If OnlyFans is what I've heard it is, it would be a near occasion of sin (I'm not going to try to whittle it down into mortal and venial) for a normal male of your age to be looking at such things. Looking at Linktree to see if she has such an account isn't looking at the OF account itself, but still, a young man's mind needs not to be going in such directions.

Just let it go and try to think about other things. There is an old saying, "resist beginnings". I think your priest would tell you the very same thing.
 
Searching for sexual content? Confess it and don't look back. In general, social media can easily be a near occasion of sin. Do you have an Examination of Conscience? This would be a great time to re-read it.
