Ok, small world, too many coincidences, or glitch in the matrix, or is this a message!?! We have Hawk and Raven in this comment section. Those are my kids names (no joke). I went to Raven’s page, she has Silent Hill playing in the back ground. My newborn, Raven, her sleep machine legit has silent hill’s arpeggio as one of the songs (creepy AF, I know).

[@ghosttrees5362]

While I really feel bad for the girl in the first story I am also really angry at her. I will never say she deserved all that came to her because really, nobody deserves that. But at the same time, she had been doing all the wrong things that could have been avoidable in the first place and of course, had all this happen. One mistake: she was essentially letting her disgusting ex cheat on his wife while they clearly had a CHILD. And then when the doctor says that he could be cheating on her, her reaction was like “WHAT???!” Like, come ON, if you had been helping a guy committing adultery and chances are, that’s not the first time he’s done it, why the hell would you assume it’s shocking news when he’d done it??? If a person had been cheating before, the chances are high that he’d do it again. Another mistake: why would you be smoking outside on your porch at 3 f***ing A.M in the morning??? Maybe it’s because I’m a very watchful person, but if you were suspicious of the car parked down the street that you assumed would be watching, what makes you think going outside ALONE, talking on the phone (umm distracted?), AFTER having an intense operation and on meds with a car that might or might not be watching- A GOOD IDEA??? Even a child would have better sense than that, no offense. I know I am coming across as harsh, but really, I am angry because all this suffering and pain could have been avoided had you had a grain of common sense. I truly hope you are in a better place now if this truly occurred.

[@realbrat40]

You aren't being harsh. I think you put over your points really well. I think I should probably take a leaf from your book, when writing my comment. But I usually find it very hard to feel sorry for people who willing destroy another persons life, that person in this case being the innocent kid.

[@stephaniewatts2804]

Bruh why the paragraph though ?

The woman who refused to testify against her murderous ex- I find that to be shameful. She sat back and let the other victims suffer alone and then reaped the benefits when they barely got him put away despite her lack of help. Wow.

[@SarahSmirnova]

Yeah. Assuming that story is true, not fabricated like many "real life" stories people post on internrt forums, that woman is a c-nt. Obviously, the guy she had an affair with wasn't a good person, but she acted as if she was completely innocent in the situation. She was pursuing a s-xual relaitonship that man, while he was married to someone.

[@pamalawashington9371]

I want to know, in the first story, what was the reason given when police said they could do nothing about the man shooting at her? This makes no sense! For future reference, and I hope there is no future need, if the police refuse to do their job, go above their head to the prosecutor's office, and tell them what happened, and tell them about the need for a protection order. I had to do this once, when the police refused to do anything about a domestic violence situation. Not only did I get a protection order, but my abuser was put in jail, and the officers were reprimanded! I really am beyond curious what their reasoning was! They should all be in trouble, and I wouldn't have let this go, even if I would have had to take it to the news!

[@weezerchick55]

So they said because his gun was state issued and sanctioned for his job, as according to them, and that they had no shell casing, they couldn't take his gun from him or even attest him. And truthfully, the man was stalking me day and night, so any sort of restraining order, particularly with him not having any residence at the time (he was illegally staying with his mother in an assisted living facility), they not only couldn't serve it to him, despite knowing where he was and it being directly across the street from the police station, and that it would only anger him more and he'd do worse next time. So to protect my family from any further retaliation from him, I decided not to put a restraining order on him, which the useless town police said was my only course of action. The ineptitude of the local police is bewildering, in all honesty.

[@weezerchick55]

@@realbrat40 no I'm not blameless, I'm not at all saying that. I feel guilty and always did for what happened, I didn't make good decisions, I didnt have the conviction or ability to back then. My mental illness made my impulses a lot harder to ignore, while also I was ugly and lonely, and someone told me they were in love with me; for a kid (because I still had the mentality of one back then) who grew up with no friends and only ever yearned for a romantic partner, I was a lot more susceptible to fall for nice words and a handsome face. It doesn't excuse it but it is why I did go against my better judgement, coupled with his story and his wife's story how she literally entrapped him into marrying him, I saw there was no love in that relationship, so I used that to justify that it in general was a fucking mess I should have downright avoided to begin with. I hate that I had to go through any of it, but for what I learned and how much stronger I am for it, idk if I would entirely do things differently, but its moot because I cant go back and only forward, and since have not and will not interrupt a monogamous relationship of any kind, I respect boundaries, and live openly and honestly with empathy, because of how much pain was caused throughout.

@@amandylyn3881 I'm old enough to now, I do believe, but the trick is finding a doctor willing to do so, since I am not married and have no children. I wish to adopt and be a parent one day, but I in no way wish to be pregnant ever again, thus take appropriate precautions and am aware of my body far more than I was 12 years ago. My period being insanely regular since has also helped lol. But willing sterilization for AFABs is a lot harder to obtain than it should be in this country.

It’s been cleared up that Joel misread “other brother” as “older brother” you can check the original story. Though the OP did say that the brother mentioned was the older of her two brothers, so using “older brother” after mentioning the younger one would’ve made sense as well.

the story told at 43-45min is so freaky! I experienced nearly the same thing. when I was in middle school I saw the same figure they described at like 3:30am and told no one. few days later my bff spent the night and the following morning she was telling me how she could barely sleep because she saw the same figure described towing over her in the middle of the night. So immediately I told her about my experience and after that we almost never had sleepovers at my house again and we never told anyone. Till one night it was New Years, so me and my bff and our other bff had a sleepover at my house. The next morning our friend was telling us how she had the worst dream that this tall figure was just standing hunched over in the corner watching us. Little to say we were all SHOOK SHITLESS. but happily to say that I have never experienced it since. (but I also never had another sleepover again in that bedroom. I've since moved rooms.)

[@toothless3835]

The first story sounds completely made up OR they are leaving out details because none of it makes sense. If you ask a doctor about ANY lab tests, they're legally required to tell you and if need be, explain the results, also, why go to the doctor to get a pregnancy test, that's what the pee sticks are for. None of this: oh, your boyfriends cheating on you, BS. No, They'll just tell you what the results are. They abortion clinic would have known and told her that the baby was already dead, and helped her remove it not do an abortion and charge her for one. If he had forced himself on her shortly after the abortion, he would've noticed something was strange-as you don't heal so soon after that, it takes months. Like... nothing adds up in this weird story like there's clearly pieces missing somewhere. also... how do you go from being an only child, to the oldest to being in the middle? I'm confused....I think I just missed something in that actually.

[@6.0hhh]

The woman in the first story is no more or less psychotic than her ex. Suorised that he would cheat on her when he had already cheated on his wife. She was alarmed that he wanted to kill his ex wife all while she was talking about kikling her unborn child. Just an all out mess between the both of them.

[@besoforreal506]

Except he’s an adult and she was a child. The brain develops to around 25 so when they got together her prefrontal cortex wasn’t fully formed inhibiting her ability to make decisions. I agree she was naive but he’s definitely more crazy.

​@@besoforreal506Please don't pull that...I and plenty other people were capable of making sound decisions and had common sense at 20. You're not a child at 20. You're a legal adult at 18. She made idiotic choices. I feel bad for the unborn child, the child of the cheater, and the SA. That's it.

I was waiting Kevin’s medical diagnosis at the end of Story 4. I worked in a museum and had a coworker that spoke with different voices when she was alone. Like in the story, it seemed like two people were having a conversation or an argue if you were away from her. She was a retired teacher, very serious, intelligent and committed to her work at the museum, but had this strange and weird habit or disorder (I don’t know how to name it). When I started working there and my others coworkers talked about it, I thought they were exaggerating. Then, I was going down the stairs to the first floor one day and kept hearing a conversation. I got to where that coworker was and greeted her. I looked left and right to see the second person and greet them too, but she was alone. At that moment, I realized what was happening and I knew that my other coworkers were not exaggerating.
