She’s had time to make sure she moves to a safer place and change her name and all that jazz before he got out of jail. I know you feel guilty but you did the best you could.

[@jaehenlee7633]

For the guy who tried to help "Angela": dude was prob hitting her already. It usually escalates to what you learned he did to her. That means 2 things: 1: it would've happened anyway, whenever she did try to leave him, for whatever reason, whether you were involved or not. Or 2. She'd still be in a relationship with an abusive freeloader. The most dangerous time for an abuse victim is when they try to leave their abuser. The only way to do it safely is to just disappear - fall off the face of the earth. She prob told "Rick" she was leaving him and that was the catalyst. Even if he found the message, he was almost certainly already abusing her and this would've happened sooner or later anyway. It still sucks but I hope this helps you not to beat yourself up. You were only trying to help.

[@jeremiahlarkin1134]

Amen 🙏 Totally Agree 💯

I only say this to further cement the fact that no one could have expected the outcome. This world is so cold.

[@violetjackalope5275]

To the person who tried to help “Angela” : You’ll probably never see this, but you should forgive yourself for your part in the story. You went into it only trying to help and you did it the only way you could think of that would potentially protect both of you. It wouldn’t have been any better if you had told her outright who you were…”Rick” probably would have been even more pissed, if possible. What happened probably would have happened to her regardless, and for what it’s worth you did more to try and help her and her kid than most people in your position would have considering you were the friend of the abuser. At least you tried to reach out and do something. You’d be surprised how rare that truly is.

Hello Joel! I’m listening to last night’s stream right now because I had to check out early… your Wahlberg impression is hilarious! 😂 Also, a funny about Pennywise: my nephew celebrated his 13th birthday at their church (in their fellowship hall), and he wanted it to be horror themed. 🤔 My sister set up a mannequin torso dressed up like Pennywise, peeking from between the lower bleachers with a single red balloon wafting above. Lol, they are so kooky!! 🤡🎈 Oh, and perhaps I should mention that they are Methodists? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Person 2 is just the absolute worst... I mean anyone who's spent any time in a small room can attest that while yes, it is cramped and does suck at times, it also tends to be the coziest. I myself have stayed in quite a few and while my housemates were usually freezing their butts off in their larger rooms, I was as snug as a bug in my little room... So, in all honesty, they had it made to begin with

[@mandieie]

no roommate either. they were real lucky

[@chopsandtoots]

Person 2 was a miserable outcast loser for a reason.

Congratulations on the 1 million man it’s been a long time coming and with all the work you do for this you more than deserve it.

🎉 HAPPY 1 MILL 🎉 I love your animated intros and quirky outros (My favs are the dead soldier nuke and retro earth pyramid) I love your soothing voice even when it sounds different in some videos (or when you say a sentence again in a different tone) I loved it when you would showcase people's art and the process of making it but most of all ofc ily. I've heard so many different narrators and stories from top 15 to fearurmaker to even corpse husband or mr. nightmare, none compare to this channel. Idk how long ive been here anymore but ill stay as long as I can :) congrats again my guy make sure you celebrate!

To the guy that tried to help "Angela" number one you HAVE to forgive yourself, you were trying to do a good thing, & none of the events that happened afterwards was your fault. Your friend & her boyfriend was probably abusing her the whole time. You didn't make him hurt her, THAT WAS HIS FAULT! You didn't make her dad kill that kid either. You are powerless in this whole situation.. I am so sorry you've hurt for so many years, but it's time to really forgive yourself & let it go. Those were bad men, period! If a dad or a man could hurt or kill an innocent person has issues & I wonder if he was also abusive to "Angela." I feel like "Angela" is probably better off without those ppl in her life. I really hope you start thriving after reading all the comments who have your back & don't blame you whatsoever..

[@imbored1179]

This is a very intriguing topic

[@t.mendous7922]

I went to school in Fairbanks AK for a year and had a house behind mine make a lot of noise at night. No AC, so had to leave the windows open which let in the noise from the “party house” as we called it. But at the same time it was rather funny with the antics pulled off at times

[@LouisTheBlackCat]

OMG 999K subs, you're _soooo_ close to the milly mark, and I for one couldn't be happier for you.. Makes me think of old ASMR vids wasn't there one with a biscuit packet? I'm sure there was, i mean it's highly likely i was just tripping _all the balls_ lol

[@shannysolo5919]

Love this type of video, super unique. Would love to see more like this. Have you ever done pirate/sailing horror stories? Like ones similar to story 3. Thank you so much, congrats on ONE MILLION ❤

[@peteartieda58]

OP from story 1 was 1 and done but not feeling guilt really made him look more psycho. OP from story 2 is far more horrible for the amount of time he lied to everyone of his involvement and even taking advantage of the sympathy just shows he's probably dangerous.
