Which leads me to wonder how many other people have been the target of his violent behaviour. Yet OP said nothing, did nothing. Avoided the news, social media, phone calls and texts. Praying to god the police don’t show up at his door. Went back and worked with this guy and accepted his excuse that “I don’t remember”.

I just hauled myself out of bed to skip the rest of this story halfway through because I was so upset by the language and lack of empathy towards the VICTIM. Why am I 100% certain OP is a male? He lost every possibility of my respect when he made such a point of "hearing both sides" when he clearly witnessed harrassment/attempted assault, had the victim confirm what he saw, and he STILL refused to believe the man could be in the wrong? Screw this guy (hopefully against his will, so he can know how it feels) Edit: Abandoned video during story 3. That's not creepy, it's brutal and terrifying - technically fair since "scary" could mean either of those - but I felt these stories were out of line with what I expect from this channel, so viewer beware!

Im shocked she didn't kill him Sooner. The courts didn't do anything when the police came to the house he didn't go to jail for beating her, but she goes to prison for killing her husband. Yes I know killing some one you go to jail but what I don't get is why he never went to jail for beating her. He mentally, emotionally, mentally and physically abused her and know one cared but when she kills him every one starts feeling bad for her where were they when he was beating her good story's you narrate good love the way you read these story's thank you God bless from phx az

As a former paramedic I knew what was coming with Mark and his trips to the bathroom, nodding off, dislike of the police. I know those things might not add up to him shooting up in the bathroom but I worked in a city where I did calls for OD's on opiates with a great many of them being IV users. It was unfortunate that the Redditor about whom the story was written ended up finding him dead. They will never be entirely the same, at least that has been my experience.

[@FiresCollide]

Right? As soon as the OP said he kept nodding off, you knew what was going on and what was coming, sadly.

[@19nmiller1]

46:10 "we're there for you if you need us" I'm sorry but thats total bullshit. They knew she was being abused and chose to do absolutely nothing about it. They could've at least tried to help, but they just ignored it. I hope for Melinda's sake she doesn't reach out to them.

[@PhantomMagician1846]

As somebody who has worked for a toxic boss I can tell you its not worth it. If you find yourself in that situation start looking for another job and as soon as you land one quit your toxic one. Its not worth your mental health to try and "stick it out" in a toxic environment

[@jennifersimer2787]

I feel bad for Mark. I do feel compassion for addicts because I myself am a recovering addict. If you don't understand you don't understand. But feeling less compassion for someone for that reason alone is a bit messed up. Just my opinion

If only someone had given a care it might have been different. It’s cowardly to just ignore a situation like that and I have nothing but disgust for that OP. Someone lost their life and another person went to jail for ten years because OP couldn’t be assed to intervene on behalf of an abused woman. Aye, OP, just go ahead and live your best life with your family. Just know that karma is real and bites ya in the arse when ya least expect it.

[@thedieseldiet]

Its not his responsibility to rescue an abused woman. The woman is an adult who chose her partner. Interfering can have serious consequences since lot of times, the abused woman will team up with her tormentor. The woman also did not press charges. I love how an innocent man gets blamed for not putting his own families safety as risk for an unwilling individual. You sound like a complete Karen.

[@pissapocalypse]

​@@thedieseldietExcuse me? If you see domestic violence happen, you do NOT ignore it. Especially if the abuse victim is your friend. That IS your responsibility. You at the very least report it to the police. Tf is wrong with you? If you saw your friend getting abused you would just stand there? You would just ignore it? You're fucking unreal if you wouldn't help your friend or even talk to them about it to see if they need help.

[@erikaLS305]

​@@thedieseldiet its right and wrong. It is that person's responsibility to report it. The woman is obviously the victim. U say karen so u were prob born after 90 which means u would watch someone beat a child or animal if it means u get more likes and views. U dont know between right and wrong. Ur parents had u at 15 and prob didnt hug u enough. And yes i can gather that from someone who was born after 1990 😂

[@thedieseldiet]

@erikasundlie305 Typical modern woman who has to compare herself to an animal or a child. This proves that modern women have no sense of accountability like their tons and tons and tons Videos that proves it shows that most modern women are unable to take responsibility for their action. And they just want to blame men. And this is why most men are going their own way. Or marrying women from a different country. Because no matter what you do and don't do. Men will always get blamed in this particular society in the Western society. Western eyes, women will always blame men for everything. And that includes your own personal choice. Also, most men understand that animal and children are vulnerable and unlike women, animals Can not falsely accuse a man and getting locked up. So most men, most guys well defend. Animals and most skies will defend children. Because they're young and innocent. And a dog female it's not at least not in the west. Lot of amber heards who make stuff up and accuse men of crimes they never committed. Your comment proves that you are exactly like Amber heard with your baseless accusations.

[@vasiliivanovich8123]

Exactly. “We went on to get married, bought a house and had children, found a new groomsman…” blablabla narcissistic blabbering and humble-bragging on how wonderful their life is in comparison to the abused victim who suffered in silence and whose life is totally broken. Some people really have no heart, no conscience and no respect. Miserable people actually, with empty lives. They treat these people’s tragedy like a Netflix series to entertain themselves and get attention from others. Disgusting

I feel like whoever wrote story two misunderstood the situation but somewhat handled it properly. First he was good to go to corporate but he should never have spoken to the manager. Second I don’t think anyone was mad at him for calling the manager out. If he hadn’t had talked to the manager after he already found out it wasn’t consensual, the girl wouldn’t have been fired and the manager would still have gotten repercussions.

[@CaKoMi]

Agreed, but sadly, I’m sure that a big chunk of staff weren’t mad on behalf of the girl getting fired. I’ve been in situations like this in restaurants and have seen harassment be dismissed by so many people because “it’s not bad enough to get him fired.” And the other skeptical part of me wonders if corporate would have done anything if the manager hadn’t fired the girl he assaulted, since firing her opens the restaurant up to more legal repercussions. I hope they let him go bc it was the right thing to do, but the fact that the girl wasn’t offered her job back tells me otherwise.

[@ericbumbles4145]

Story #3, complete coward and he should be ashamed. His friend beat senseless an extremely vulnerable person on the edge of society, all because he was rejected by women. He is just as bad and as guilty as his buddy that commited the crime. At the very least he could have reported anonymously. COWARD! There is no justifiable excuse for that kind of lack of humanity.

For those who don’t understand the hate OP gets in story 2 for the confrontation, the issue is that he made the decision to confront him for the victim, leaving the victim to deal with the consequences, which is why she didn’t want to confront him in the first place.

[@FiresCollide]

Nope. Trust me, women will throw other women under the bus.

[@pissapocalypse]

Yeah. When I was getting sexually harassed at a school that I lived at for a year and I didn't want to tell anyone that it was happening because 1. I had no evidence 2. I'm a girl and she was also a girl and I had doubts that anyone would believe me 3. If I wasn't believed then it would have made my life hell because I still had to live with the girl who was harassing me 4. We were friends and I had conflicting feelings about wanting to get her in trouble. So I felt like it was in my best interest to just get out of there and cut all contact with her. And I'm doing good now so I think that was my best option.

[@chopsandtoots]

The guy in story 3 is victimizing himself more than the poor homeless guy who he failed to help. He's right, he is a coward. Sorry 4: how on earth did he not realize that Mark was an addict? That was my first thought when he mentioned him disappearing to the bathroom. I'm not an "experienced" person and I figured that out.

[@pixiehopper8]

Yeah I totally agree with both things you said. I rolled my eyes so much during the 4th story. I mean how naive do you have to be?! I also think it’s crazy that he just closed the door and went out to ring a customer up instead of immediately calling 911 or doing something!

[@um2913]

Not only that but story 4 guy had such a lack of compassion and understanding for addicts. I’m not an addict nor did I grow up with them but I still educated myself. Addiction is really hard and instead of saying it’s sad he couldn’t get help before he OD’d you’re just like “he was so miserable and made everyone around him miserable I don’t miss him.” What a heartless fucking thing to say to someone who just died. Hope he haunts ur ass goddamn. Glad his love life is interesting tho

What's worse is this is a school, kids could see him to. Yes I complained, I was told "don't look at him" by upper management. The only reason he's gone is because his "girlfriend" left and he "followed" her.......

Told to me by a coworker. One of her coworkers came up to her and asked her what she dropped last night, on her way to her car. She then is like, hey I didn’t know you were working last night too (she got off at 11pm), to which he replies, and completely casually too “Oh I wasn’t. I live near by and know what car you drive. I was watching you and saw you dropped something.”

[@BeaR-lm5zl]

I know I sound like an armchair general here but...OP in the last story...they were such sunshine warriors. Like, they saw that Melinda was in dire need of help, the wife even was on speaking terms and he was aware that the co-worker was such a douche. Yet, they just distanced themselves and acted all shocked once Melinda finally fought back. Dunno, it sounds kinda pretentious to invite her back into their life. as in, 'yeah, you had a hard time with your a-hole husband. But, hey, it's all over. Wanna hang out with us again?' Honestly, if I was Melinda I would be so pissed at them.... I hope she finds a good support network. I know that hindsight is 2020 and we can't save and support everyone around us. But...c'mon, if you see someone being abused and feel uncomfortable to be around the abuser yourself...DO SOMETHING!

[@cece221091]

It was 1:30 am and I heard a couple arguing outside my property. I got out of bed and witnessed a man beating a woman. I immediately grabbed my phone and jacket and raced outside to help her. They were still arguing and he was now dragging her over a bridge so I decided to get in my car and follow them. Fortunately there were railway workers that were doing some maintenance on the tracks and they were now shouting at the bloke to stop what he was doing and I saw this as the perfect opportunity for me to call the police whilst racing to make sure she was ok and he didn’t get away. The police finally arrived and they started questioning us all and placed the bloke in handcuffs and a police van took him away as he was shouting and swearing his head off. They turned their attention to the woman who just put her hand up and said.. “excuse me but I’m on the phone!!” I stood there whilst she was making arrangements to meet up with someone for Bingo in a couple of days. She then said “I’m not pressing chargers as I’ve only known him a couple of days and I don’t need the hassle!!” She then walked away. I received a Summons for Court as he’d also assaulted two of the railway workers and two police officers. It’s not the first time that I’ve faced this kind of behaviour from a victim of crime but even after this event I don’t think I could just walk away without trying to help the person being abused.

I just spent the last four days cleaning my apartment spotless so pest control can come spray. I really needed this. Im sore and tired and this is gonna help me drift off and im so incredibly thankful.🙏♥️

[@shaylamcgrady1048]

SMH. They could’ve done so much to help Melinda. But instead were cowards. And then have the nerve to “care”, once it was way too late. I’m sure she doesn’t want anything to do with them now. I wouldn’t.

I've listened to you to go to sleep for the last two years if you ever stop doing this I'll never sleep again 🤣

[@hayasheeeesh]

The OP of story 2 whined way too much about how someone else's assault inconvenienced him. The fact that he was willing to give the manager the benefit of the doubt in a clearly nonconsensual situation was also disgusting. The coworkers being mad at OP for calling out an abuser seems bizarre. However, being mad that his mishandling of the situation cost a sexual assault victim her job seems pretty reasonable.

[@thevaleofthesoil744]

I wholeheartedly agree. He was way to unbothered about it, like it just got in his way, it was angering to listen to.

[@s.r.z250]

This exactly! I think I'm just tired of the white knighting that happens when people hear about or witness an assault. This is a prime example of a dude coming in to try to save the day and ends up making it worse for everyone involved, most especially the victim. But glad he feels good about it 🙄

[@notaperson9831]

Also the guy in the 3rd story could have witness a murder and didn’t say a damn thing. Fucking cowards.

[@g1rl_veteran]

Right, as he rides off on his white horse, feeling like a pillar of chivalry. Meanwhile the victim is further harmed. 😢

I never let any boss intimated me with the ole “you’ll get fired” bs. Or the “lose your job” bs either. Idc do what you have to do fire me, but you’re gunna hear me speak first. Swear these guys are coward letting their bosses walk all over them

[@Iuxinterior]

i understand being afraid to press charges but i can’t imagine being a girl and claiming i’m a friend of the victim while being mad someone called out her abuser

[@cancan2312]

It’s less being mad about calling out her abuser, and more so being mad about that decision being made for her. Someone in my friend group assaulted me last month, and upon kicking him out of the friend group, I asked my friends to keep me out of it so I can avoid any repercussions of the confrontation (seeing him on campus, him trying to talk to me, etc.). Hope that makes sense, but yes, it seems ridiculous on a surface level.

[@Iuxinterior]

I mean these are just work friends and when she leaves the guy will just do it to someone else plus it puts op at risk for witnessing it but saying nothing so it makes less sense in a work setting

[@cancan2312]

@@Iuxinterior Nah like it's a super hard situation either way for sure

[@zombiechicken7114]

I despise people in these stories who do not call the police immediately. Lukes assault on the homeless man was appalling and op doing nothing about it, even when safe in his cab, is evil. They should go to the police and face the consequences.

Manipulative coworkers are the worst... I worked with a coworker who can't work independently, has attitude if I'm assigned to other tasks, wanted me to work alongside him all day everyday, complained about extra tasks, didn't take ownership for bad attitude and responsibility, and wanted me to change my schedule to work alongside him more. This coworker was not only manipulative, but wanting me to work alongside him more was pretty creepy, especially me being a guy myself and not really the kind of person I want in my social circle hence the bad attitude, not taking ownership for anything, and just being straight up a terrible coworker. One of the owners (husband) took his side and believed his so-called medical issues, while the wife totally dislikes him and told me that he was lazy and didn't clean anything properly. As for the medical issues, I don't believe any of it and I think it's just a way to avoid working independently. Anyone who fakes medical issues to avoid working independently is sick altogether... I've also had to deal with my fair share of creepy coworkers, but mostly creepy customers...

[@josiegipson90]

One thing I've noticed in these type stories is the constant stereotyping. Quirky people are always on the spectrum and crazy and/or homeless are always addicts. People spend too much time trying to label others, people who have no business doing so in the first place.

[@Iuxinterior]

people say people are on the spectrum to explain their behavior and homeless people are mentioned when they do weird/scary stuff because these are only weird/scary stories

[@josiegipson90]

@@Iuxinterior The autism spectrum is a medical diagnosis not an adjective so therefore it shouldn't used that way. Not everyone who has quirky behavior is on the spectrum and not all on the spectrum have quirky behavior. Making that assumption is stereotyping and ignorant. Also I said crazy "and/or" homeless people are always accused of being drug addicts in these stories. If someone is crazy they must be on drugs. Or they're homeless they must be on drugs. A person can be either without being on drugs. They can do weird/crazy/creepy things without being on drugs.

[@renzo_kookin4208]

​@@josiegipson90 yea and not everyone on drugs does weird creepy things

[@melissamoonchild9216]

i had so many issues with that story. Even the way the author phrased it, "i think they were on the spectrum, i dont say that to mock them"...uh I wouldnt consider that mockery, but it tells me a lot about what *you* think about people on the spectrum. I had other issues too, but I don't feel like typing enough to explain it all 😅
