Something happened to me when I was in lower school, being young and stupid a bunch of boys in my year thought it would be funny to buy condoms from a shop in Paris during a school trip.

Me and my friend decided we would buy them too with the group of lads, after purchasing we put them in our pockets and went on with the trip.

Later that night when we were having food in a reasturant I was called over by a teacher where they had said a female friend of mine had accused me of saying that I was going to use it on her, I was nowhere near that certain girl all day and she wasn’t in the friendship group I had.

When I tried to explain to the teacher that I had not been near the girl but I had been with my friends they didn’t believe me. One of the male teachers thought it was strange and he kind of looked after me through that trip.

During the trip nothing more was said about it until the next week when we got back to the UK where I was pulled into the head of years office where I was told there had been a complaint by the parents of the girl. They asked me what happened and my story was completely different to what the girl had said.

It affected me in school from then on people refused to talk to me, until a couple years later when I found out the girl had lied to the teacher and she came up to me and told me she had.

None of the other boys that had bought them had been accused of anything and this made my school life hell.
