We often believe that our significant other is the person we know best in the world, but a single revelation can turn our world upside down and make us question our entire life with them. In the stories we’re sharing today, people uncovered shocking and chilling secrets about their partners, making them feel as though they had been living with a stranger they knew nothing about for all these years.
I was pregnant when my husband passed away in a workplace accident. When I got his belongings, there were answering machine messages from someone thanking him for being so amazing. It made me feel proud of the good man he was. Then, when I opened his computer, I was stunned to find emails and text messages from several women thanking him for dinner, etc.
Suddenly, I felt a surge of anger at him that I could do nothing about. Everyone told me, “You can’t be mad at a dead person.” But it was confusing.I was cleaning out an old dresser when I found child support papers for an 8-year-old child I knew nothing about.He lied about being in another country, sending me old pictures and videos to maintain the lie, so he could invite his ex to live with him just ten minutes from my house.
She had apparently been told they were soon to get engaged.My ex played with a Ouija board, and I honestly think he got possessed. One night, I saw his face change, and it scared me so much that I broke up with him. Years later, I looked him up and found out he went to prison. I found some court documents, and one stated he wasn’t himself because he had been taken over by an entity. It creeped me out!
I’m sure he’s just crazy but seeing that on file was still extremely scary.He had faked an entire degree and pretended to work in his fake field for over a year. He just sat on the computer all day, claiming he was working from home.He was married and had a son. I found a box of his wedding photos, and he tried to tell me that he, the groom holding the bride, was just the best man. I took the train home immediately. He also wasn’t 21; he was 30.It turns out she did not have cancer. It was all an attempt to gain sympathy from everyone around her, including me. Thankfully, I wised up before the wedding.My ex lied to me about her age. It was during college; I was 24, and she claimed to be 26 (we weren’t dating at the time).
