Meetfighters Changed My Life
Its beeing a while since I wanted to tell you how this website completely changed my life, and now I feel that I am ready to tell how.
I always loved strenght, since when i was a little kid. Muscles, crushing scenes (like bearhugs), but couldnt understand about that, since I have never heard about it as a sexual thing. Well, internet came and i could find some stuff about it and realized i was into the wrestling and muscle worship fetish in a blog called bearhugger.net. After years reading it and getting very excited about the wrestling world they posted about meetfighters. Thats how my life changing started.
When i got in meetfighters it was a blast. A lot of hot guys into the same thing as me: wrestling, muscles, sadomasochism and domination. I felt that I belong here and stopped thinking how weird i was for liking this kind of stuff. Had my adventures, met the most handsome and hot guys i have ever seen. This website was heaven. Even if this is a very important thing, its not exactly how it changed my life.
Well, i am from a place in Rio, Brazil, very poor. Actually i used to starve sometimes, with a 7 people family i can say that money was a very big problem. Anyway, i knew that if I studied a lot and worked hard i would be able to get off this situation. So i did it. Studied chemistry and biology in the best latin america's university. Graduated in 2019, right before pandemics. Because of that i got unamployed and realized i would be in the same situation for very long. My dreams of meeting the world and the wonderfull places that i grew up watching on TV and books would have to wait some more, maybe a lot more. I was hopeless of getting a job due to pandemic and had no idea what i would do.
One day a guy came to me in this website and told me he wanted to watch me wrestling and asked for some videos, he would pay. I accepted, a very good oportunity to "survive" the pandemic. Well, when i got 4 videos i've decided to see if other people would like to watch it and oppened an instagram, twitter and OnlyF. Did all by myself: the content, marketing, etc. I had no idea what i was doing and if it would work, but due to the situation i had to try something. It was very hard, i was affraid of my family seeing the videos, friends... but i kept going.
People started to enjoy my content, other guys from the wrestling scene started to send me messages, i was growing in this industry. Guys that i grew up watching started to send me messages saying that they love my content, and suddenly... companies started to ask me to shoot. The same companies i used to see puctures and watch videos on the bearhugger website, when i was a child. It was so crazy... I started to travel to other countries to meet guys and companies from the wrestling scene, something that i thought i would NEVER be able to do. So I realized i could meet the world using wrestling and chase my goals with that. Poverty/starvation desapeared, intense adventures started, all because of this website.
I've been meeting wonderfull people, seeing incredible places that i would never be able to go, making my dreams comming true, all because of wrestling and this website.
I don't know if the owner of this website will read it, but you are a life changer. Thank you 🙂

24/10/2022 22:21What a wonderful post, and what an eloquent endorsement of Meetfighters, our wonderful site. I've been following you for a long time, Characi, and it helps that you are always polite and actually reply to messages.
You deserve your success and it's great to learn how much Meetfighters (and now, I imagine, Watchfighters?) has helped you - as literal life-changers.
I know of others - including another Watchfighters channel based in Brazil, and one in the Ukraine - where what our sites do has been similarly life-changing.
Good luck to you, Characi - and keep scissoring!

It's always good to give people a certain amount of grace and respect and not judge by what you see on a screen – we don't know where we come from and what we've been through.

24/10/2022 23:41Dear friend! Thank you for the experience of reading your lines.
I was touched by your honesty.
I'm so sorry we live on another continent and there's no way I'll be able to hug you.

24/10/2022 23:48This is a great post. Thanks for sharing, perhaps the most important thing is you found you weren’t alone and lots of other guys like the same things as you. Love and live!

25/10/2022 0:20You've touched a nerve here at MF and it's great to see what a positive, affirming effect our site can have on its members.
I'm more than twice your age, Characi, and you probably can't imagine a life pre-internet.
Our Meetfighters site and its later adjuncts proved liberating for you - and I'm so pleased for you.
But for people my age, the internet itself has proved similarly liberating. Until I began to discover stuff online, I really had no idea that anyone else might share my mad predelictions. What? Other guys like "that" too? So enjoying "that" is, in fact, no big deal?
Thanks, again, for a great post. Hooray for us all!

25/10/2022 1:14How inspirational! It just goes to show you how the human spirit can survive with just the right encouragement and drive. You owe yourself a big pat on the back for being tenacious.
I'm here in Houston if you're ever available for a grapple and a meal. My treat!
PS: Shame on the people who down-voted this story! SMH...

25/10/2022 8:46My respect for Characi which I would like to express with this. Not everyone dares to reveal their life so openly. I hope your wishes come true in life. I would love to wrestle with you too, but I live in Germany and have no idea if our paths will ever cross.
All the best to you again.

25/10/2022 12:22Oh hey man, I didn't realize this was you, Dio, lol. I randomly messaged you on twitter some days ago. I don't recall someone on here sharing a story like that, really glad you shared it because it touches on a really important message that I've realized in life. The greatest success and fulfillment lies in doing what you enjoy, the things that we force ourselves to do, it's like the universe knows it and blocks us for our benefit even though it's very inconvenient, lol. But once you come in alignment of that thing that gives you joy, it's like everything is opened up for you. It looks like you are in the midst of that so thank you again for sharing your story and I'm sure you're in inspiration to somebody and don't even realize it.

25/10/2022 13:24Sawubona, até lacrimejei com o relato; não desmereço a janela que o Meet Figthers abre aos usuários, todavia, me entristeço ao saber que a educação formal, no Brasil, garante menos oportunidades em contrapartida à sexualidade acessível e universal!

26/10/2022 2:50Você tem um corpo espetacular, perfeito para lutar. Já assisti a algumas lutas suas, mas estou na expectativa de vê-lo numa luta verdadeiramente competitiva, ao estilo submission wrestling, sem elementos de fetiche ou pro. Talvez devesse considerar lutar para o Movimus Wrestling, por exemplo. Estive pensando, e dentre os lutadores mais recentes daquele site, acho que você seria um bom match para Paul Castellano e Tanner Martin. Realmente acho que você deveria procurá-los e fazer isso acontecer. Ouvi dizer que eles pagam todas as despesas.

Seeing snow for the first time was one of the most amazing moments this websit gave to me. Also because of you, of course. I am sure you will show me a lot of new other things too!
wrestlinaddict (78)
28/10/2022 2:52This was a very nice story but also a quite sad one. No one should ever have to face hunger and unfortunately its a very common problem in many places. I am glad you managed to find a community that accepts you and that allowed you to explore your passion and work on something you enjoy.
Wish you the best of lucks man!

29/10/2022 17:18What a great post, very inspirational. So sorry you had so much adversity when you were young but it's really good to see that with the help of MF you've turned things around. Well done for your hard work and thank you for your contributions to this site and the others - watchfighter, BG, and I'm sure, more to come! I'm so pleased for you and that it's making you happy and letting you enjoy your life ("seeing snow for the first time" - wonderful.)
To the future - may it get even better :)

04/11/2022 20:01I know what you mean I grew up in the ghetto in milwaukee wisconsin usa and in chicago seeing dead bodies in allys and witnessing shootings everyday and seeing all kinds of stuff on the L trains in chicago I didn't money neither and didn't have meals everyday being a gay man on the westside of chicago was not easy at all it was dangerous and I also worked hard to make a life for myself and you should be proud of yourself to because of what we went though it made us to take on the real 🌎
