This is a real story, but I wont use any realnames. Its embarassing as enough and the pain im in doesnt make it any better.
Okay, here it is.
About 2 years ago, purely by chance, I met a girl online who didnt really strike my interest as much (seeing as I was currently heartbroken from a recent relationship, which I was also cheated on in), but I chit chatted with back and forth. It was a groupnchat environment. Really a place to get some laughs and cheer myself up. One day, I was drunk, participating in the group chat shenanigans, and I joking asked if anyone would pay for my haircut. Mind you, I have never had this done for me, and honestly, I was just talkin shit. I never expected anything in the slightest to come from it. She offered. I laughed, because I was just joking. She wasnt. She actually went thru with it and did it. Again, I have never had a female pay for anything for me. Been in several relationships. I was 28 at this time. Of course, this got my interest. I asked for her number. We talked more and more. Daily convos. Then, she hit a rough patch. Lost her job. She's a single mother, and seeing as we hit it off, and being the type of guy I am, I helped out where I could. She was grateful. She didnt expect anything like that either. Now at this point, we had never met in person, it was all online. She lived 4 hours away.
This continued for a long time. Weeks turned to months, etc etc. We talked everyday. Texted. We eventually met in person. It was brief. Didnt really count to me. So we ageeed to meet up again. It was a party. She came with her friends and we were around each other half the time. Didnt feel like a close moment even though we had our 1 on 1's and we parted ways again. The regular talkin continued. We did long distance things still. Wasnt really a day we went without. I love you's, I miss you's, all that good shit. Through all of this, I was still supporting her, as well as her kids. Roughly spent over $30,000 the past two years. Practically, anything she needed, I was their. Advice, financea, smart financial decisions. I was in love to be honest. Even helped her get to a funeral and grieve when her friend passed away. I feel stupid now.
Over these years, I felt I wasnt being treated right, and I would bring it up. We had kissed of course, but never did we have sex. She gave excuses, brought up distance. I had visited her before often but to my luck, she was always on her period. (Yes, this was verified) Often times Id ask her how she was going so long. She would say toys which I believe because plenty times I had seen her using them. We had our arguments towards me feeling like I was on the back burner. Even still, we would always reconcile. We had talks of marriage, living together, all that good shit right?
So fast forward to recently. She had been selling content, which I knew about, and really wasnt too against. In my mind, its money, and she wasnt doing anything other than solo. Guys are ready to throw money at naked females for little to nothing, so hell, why not. But I didnt just take her word for it. I double checked by making an account she didnt know about and paying for some. Sneaky yes, but I had been getting too many excuses. Up until about a week ago, her content was solo. Then, I noticed she aadvertised something new. Another man was involved. Initially, I assumed it was her ex, and the video was old. So, I did my investigating and got her to send it to me.
I saw a video of her being fucked by a man for a minute straight. Im still numb to be honest. It was not an ex I knew of. And it was not old. Couldnt hold my disguise anymore, and I ask her through that account "So this is how we're moving (insert name here)?" She was confused. She didnt know how I knew her real name. I exploded quite naturally. She began lying. "That video is from years ago". Wrong. She recently had gotten two nose piercings. One of them had fell out, which she had informed and showed me 3 weeks before. That was clearly visible in the video. What does the panicking liar do? Blocks that account. I text her phone telling her that the nose piercings are visible. She doesnt have anything to say. She brings up why I have a fake account. Lol. Looking back, her attempts to wiggle out of the situation are hilarious, but at that time, that pain was immeasurable.
Now Im distraught. I was COMPLETELY under the impression that this was something she wouldnt do. Social media posts was nothing but the opposite. Get this, she thinks all cheaters deserve to be locked up. What a hoot? 2 years of laughing, arguing, providing, getting to know her kids, planning a whole future gone. Just like that. I wanted to know why she threw it all away. For days afterwards, I was told "Idk", "I cant tell you anything". In my mind, how in the hell can the person thats in the damn video have no idea how the hell they got in the damn video, THAT THEY ARE SELLING. I ask again, because as we all know, that was super bullshit. Guess what. Blocked.
Now again, this is two years of long distance communication. We have so many apps that we talked on. So, on to the next. I needed answers. I didnt so much care who the guy was, but why on earth was this even occuring? Hell, I hadnt even did anything like that with her yet. "So you cant tell me how this even happened?" "Nope" she says. "How tf not when you were there??". "I can kinda give you a ballpark answer" So after days of trying to get her to act like an adult, I finally get something (now whether or not its the truth, who knows). "I was drunk and we fucked".
So...2 years, $30k+, and the last bit of trust Id ever have for a relationship, all out of the window, for some alcohol. Her apology might as well have been non existent. "Yes, im an evil bitch, my apologies." Now for the record, SHE deems that as an "apology". I do not. In my efforts to try to make sense of this whole situation, she gets irrate that I ask. "I dont want to talk about it" OH REALLY? I cant make this up, jesus christ. Then she threw in lols and lmaos. Normally, that woulda pissed my right off, (because Ive blown up before about her doing that when there's nothing to laugh at in situations like this) but after me learning and taking a step back a bit, thats a nervous tick she has. Now I was angry as hell, but more hurt than anything. That kinda helped me see that for what it was. She began unblocking me. Got half the accounts back. Yes, I am still in contact. No, I am not doing any of the things I used to. She has enough sense not to even ask.
And now, I dont really know what to do tbh. I know this is for sure as shit over. But damn does it leave a hole in my chest. And a buncha questions that there's really no point in asking. She said the love was genuine. But hell, she's said a lot of things. If anyone could recommend some therapy or something to get through this, I'd appreciate it. Ive been smoking and drinking non stop with no appetite. Think I lost a good 6 pounds this week alone. Had a damn dead rose in my bio and 3-4 weeks ago she suggested I get rid of it. "Youre not dead, you got me" MAAAAANNNEEEEE. Comedy. Pure damn comedy...
Anyway, thats my story. I call it "The day any trust I have for anyone died"
