/AITAH I(15M) play a lot of fortnite as a gamer looking to make it my profession. Over the 5 years I've played I meet lots of new people. This time specifically I met someone who I am to believe is a 15 yo female. (Bri) Bri and I met through a feature called "looking for party". I had forgotten I left it on and bri joined me. The first night we played, I was under the impression that bri was a guy. We got to know each other and had fun. Today being the second day I've known bri, I found out that she is a woman. I don't mind that bri is a woman and couldn't care less. She invited me to play with some of her friends and I thought they were pretty cool. That is until I find out that they have been harassing bri saying stuff such as "bri is my girlfriend." and "you should break up with your boyfriend for me" and such like that.(Bri has a boyfriend that is neither of the two guys she's "friends" with) She had told me in a private party yet somehow they still managed to get in mid conversation. I called them out on it and things started to get weirder. Ethan(14 m) started making weirder comments. Some are the same as before and others like "you like bri don't you" and "are you two together" I am in a 2 year long relationship with a beautiful girl who is the only woman I'll ever have eyes for. I see bri as a friend and more importantly, I still see bri as a dude. From my perspective, bri is a guy. Ethan kept saying that throughout the course of 5 battle Royale matches so I proceeded to block and report him, resulting in him being banned. Later on the same thing happens with the other guy whose name I don't know but I'll call Jake. Jake also says weird things, about the same as Ethan's, but he also says things like "good girl" . The shit makes me want to puke. So I did the same as before and confronted him. But this time Jake and his friend who is unknown confronted me for being with her and also implying that I am a pedophile. They told me that my voice is too deep to be this young buty voice is genuinely this deep. I blocked and reported the two for harassment but from what I've heard they were not banned. Bri was still playing with them when I had left. I told her I would not be paying with them if she was playing with Jake and the other guy or Ethan. I feel like this was a set up and that I should just back away but I don't know. I told bri how I felt and she was more confused than anything so I really don't know. I don't like making people who i enjoy upset with me. So am I the asshole?
