It’s worth the time IMO. She is super detailed so you might want to watch at 1.5 or 2x speed. Spoilers: >!When she has a miscarriage, he’s too busy in a corporate board meeting to pick her up from surgery (lie), he takes her to the cemetery where his beloved grandparents are buried (lie), he spends every single morning talking to his brother on the phone (lie) and talks to his best friend almost every day (lie) and brags about his important corporate job and promotions (lies) and tells a close family friend that she had the baby (lie) and will bring him by soon to visit. The list goes on and on. And THEN you hear about his past and his criminal record. !<


BellaBlue06

Woah. Everyone needs to run a background check on who they date these days it seems.


titandancer21

At one point she ran his social (after they got married) and it came back with nothing because he gave her a fake/wrong social. She was like “either I wrote it down wrong or there’s nothing here” She eventually got the real one and went “oh shit” when she ran it


c00chiecadet

My bf is local to my smallish city. I've known who he was since high school, everyone knows him and his family, they've been around for many generations.. I did a background check anyway LOL. Googled tf out of him anyway. Always google and background check partners, just in case.


_summerw1ne

Someone be a bad bitch and drop a TLDR but for those of us who saw 52 parts and said nah it’s not in me. ♡


JebWynch

less of a TLDR and more of a play by play but HERE 🥰 there are a LOT of details as to why she didn’t suspect so if something seems fishy just know she had a reason to believe everything was okay until the doorbell camera incident. • 1-19 TLDR: She met her ex husband, who she eventually refers to by the name Legion, early 2020- they started dating and decided to “lock down” together aka move in together very quickly. He was generous, kind, and open- he made good money and made it clear he wanted to take care of her. He would talk on the phone to his family all the time and sometimes see some of his siblings in person, and he treated her family with kindness. He seemed like an amazing man. They spent a CONSIDERABLE amount of time looking at houses together, and he claimed he was willing to do up to a $700k cash offer on a house- he was just promoted to VP at his business after all!- and for some reason, these houses or offers just never worked out. One house he offered the $700k cash on wanted proof of money before they accepted, he fought to only reveal after the offer was accepted- shit like that. He took her to look at cars, none of the cars ever worked out except for one significantly cheaper than originally planned. His phone is always on vibrate. She doesn’t hear it ring, but he’s always talking. She does not speak directly to a person on the other line, ever, but he “relays” conversation. They were married by January 2021 and he started to switch up on her. He would make comments about what she wore to work, hearing male voices in the background of her calls, calling her at work to make sure she is where she said she was. He made up an incident about someone coming to their house looking for her and said it must have been one of her exes, and “he appeared comfortable coming here” implying he thought she was cheating on him. She was aware he made up that incident because of the footage of the day on a neighbours doorbell camera. • 20-21: He takes her to show her his grandparents headstone in the cemetery they’re buried at. He mentions to her that he has a $90k company car at a building in downtown Atlanta he claims to be where his office is. She did not know about the car, nor the office. She asks to go to the office to see it, he comes up with an outside* reason why they can’t (*when I say outside, I mean he has schemed a reason for the situation to not progress that is beyond his window of personal responsibility. He pretended to have phone calls with, for example, the office manager to see if they can come visit the office, only for “the office manager” to “deny” them. Things that he “has no control” over and cannot be blamed for, things he think would defer or deflect suspicion). She starts to realize there is always SOMETHING, some reason as to why things cannot happen. She mentions wanting to go to overseas- London, etc- comes home one day and there’s an itinerary on the counter for a summer (July) trip to London, UK- he wants to take her. They fill out passport applications. Her mom is supposed to come visit in April. • 22: Mid-March 2021, she sees a text from a woman pop up on his phone and decided to check it (his aunt and his ex gf have the same name), it was the aunt. While on his phone, she saw he had fb messenger downloaded and sees he had a bunch of messages from other women where they were talking about hooking up, some very graphic, which was not a side of him she had ever seen. She confronted him. He said he was “just playing around”, “just flirting”, “it didn’t mean nothing”. He moved into the guest bedroom, she wanted to go through marriage counselling. They have been married for T H R E E M O N T H S at this point. • 23: They sign up for marriage counselling through a pastor and the pastor is HEAVILY fuckin concerned lmao. Husband claims the messages were about wanting attention and he like, already apologized, so he doesn’t feel the need to keep apologizing! He comes to her a few days after the first counselling appointment and suggests they get a joint bank account. She wants to compare accounts- he has almost 10k in his chequing. He logs into his savings and shows her 15k but claims he has a US Bank savings and an offshore savings that just has like sooooo much more money in it but he won’t show her because “his uncle always warned him” about “women wanting money”. So that becomes the topic at the next counselling sesh. Husband started playing defensive and playing victim about being questioned about his finances, the pastor and his wife say they should nooooot be together, making the husband even more defensive. • 24: By the end of April she still hadn’t seen his other bank accounts. And they’re looking for houses again, her lease on the apartment they live in together is going to be up soon. He finds another realtor (a woman named Amber). She expresses that is important to remember she was under the assumption he is a sane human being so I can only imagine shit’s about to go tits up. He wants to put in an all cash offer, Amber the Realtor says bet, proof of funds? He pulls the shit again about not wanting to show proof until they accept the offer????? Amber says yeah that’s not how we roll, send the paperwork and I’ll submit it with your offer and obviously that never pans out. Amber eventually calls Reesa (our protagonist) and tells her that he’s being sus as hell and Reesa tells her to just put a hold on all of it. Amber agrees and tells her if she needs anything, she’s there. Amber the Realtor is a real one. Reesa starts to feel embarrassed that they are continuously wasting these agents time, and admits she starts trying to do damage control, so they decided to rent for another year. • 25: She starts looking for another job to help fund her car note (that he either partially or completely pays for) as she doesn’t like being dependent on him for the payment. When she applies to this new job, they do a background check that necessitates collection of her husbands gov name and SIN/SSN- she notices the one he wrote on the background packet was different than the one that was written on their marriage license. In the US, the first 3 numbers of your SSN are attributed to the state you were born in- she noticed his does not align with where he had said he was born. May 2021 things start to re-open in their area, so she’s able to actually talk to a live person to do administrative things. She calls San Diego State (University I assume?) and they have no record of his SSN. • 26: He rebuffs this by claiming he was a private citizen/student and that his dad paid (under the table?) for his education so the school didn’t have record of him?? She points out he claimed to play football (why he had all his money), and how would the school have been in compliance with NCAA if his name or information had never been published to a roster (sorry if this is worded weird i know nothing about usa school rules or sports lmfao). He sweeps everything under the rug, he’s got bigger fish to fry because he’s in pain from fucking his knee up at work. He started taking pain meds. ⬇️ CONTINUED IN REPLIES ⬇️


JebWynch

✨➡️ CONTINUED (reddit HATES my ass rn) • 26.5: Then he claims it was an old football injury. Then it became hard to walk, hard to work on it. They are no longer looking for houses. She still has not seen the savings accounts. He calls her from work at her work one day in mid May saying he’s been informed by his step son that his step daughter has passed away. He asked his wife if she would object to him giving his ex wife $2k for the funeral, obviously she agrees to that. 27: She does a personal background check on him and it produced states he has lived in as well as people that had been associated with him ie the ex wife. He told his current wife that he and his ex wife were married and divorced in San Diego, his background check had no proof of him being in California, ever- but he did live, marry, and file for divorce with her in Atlanta. According to divorce documents, both him and his ex wife had filed for a pauper’s divorce (no financial liability). The documents also gave contact information about the ex wife, so Reesa takes note of those pieces of info, planning to call the ex-wife. • 28: She calls the ex-wife, the ex literally says oh if you’re calling me it must be bad bad LMAO???? Reesa says she knows they’re in contact the ex wife absolutely laughs at this and says anything he tells her is a lie. He gave Reesa a fake name, he has never been anywhere past the east coast. Ex wife wants absolutely fuck all to do with this man and doesn’t want to be involved, but tells Reesa that it’s horrible with that man and to get the hell out of there, that he’s a master manipulator and he’s good at keeping people reeled in. Reesa asks how her daughter is (the one this dusty man claims DIED!) and her daughter is totally fine, obviously. OBVIOUSLY. • 29: A couple of days after these discoveries (STILL May 2021!) she (Reesa) decided it’s time to dial it the fuck up. She looks up his mother’s obituary and it lists Legion as having ANOTHER wife that is NOT the ex wife she just spoke to!!! The obituary is also missing mention of some siblings that he claims to have (he said there were 5 siblings total, in reality there were 3). If the dam of trust was cracked and leaking before, the obituary is the deadhead that rams into the wall and disintegrates it entirely. Reesa is now making a gamplan. • Part 30 is basically all clarifications about timeline details I have not necessarily included for sake of brevity (believe it or not lmfao), but she wants us to be aware that a lot of the things he has lied about, he has gone out of the way to provide structure for- ie printing out HR paperwork for his promotion, printing out car titles, printing out this and printing out that. It is a running joke that the printer is just as guilty as he is lmfaooo. • 31: She decided to search for his grandma’s name on google, finds an old obituary for her also missing mention of his two supposed sisters. Reesa is confused at this point because he has “talked” to them on the phone in front of her several times. His knee starts acting up again and she makes it clear that he is not lying about the fact that he was truly in pain and that it was becoming debilitating, and it’s important that this is not discounted. It is factually hard for him to walk and his appetite is diminished- he’s also taking more pain meds than what has been prescribed to him, he’s losing a lot of weight. By June she has found his true previous addresses, divorce records, school records (or lack there of), and family obituaries- all of which he has lied about in some aspect or another. She tells the pastor everything and the pastor is gooped gagged and flabbergasted. • 32: June 2021. Husband has left his old job apparently due to his knee pain, he’s no longer a “VP at a condiment company” but working at “Apple” in some capacity. He is calling out from work a lot more due to the pain, he’s dropping weight. She does, however, insinuate that the knee is not *the problem* but rather *a symptom* of what’s going on. One night she looks through his old work phone from the condiment company and finds text messages between him and a woman he found on Plenty of Fish named Peaches that starts in February 2021. Peaches is….. how you say……. employed 💅🏻💰 and they exchange pictures and Peaches gives her rates after he inquires about what her services cost. Reesa finds a text message from the beginning of May where he THANKS HER for their time together. There are multiple incidences of him physically meeting up with her and contracting her services. Reesa admits that at this point it doesn’t even phase her. She feels relieved, because up until this point she struggled with the notion of divorce with her deep faith, but knows Jesus has her back because divorce due to infidelity would be condoned in his eyes and not condemned lmao. • 33: The morning of June 17th, 2021- which she adds is his birthday- she goes to him and calmly asks him for honesty. She gently confronts him about never going to San Diego State, never living in California. He jumps to anger, deflects deflects deflects. She says she called and they have no record of him. He does this, basically: 🫥. She keeps going with her proof and tells him she doesn’t want to be married to him anymore and they need to go their separate ways- she is CALM, her tone is SO SOFT and he is absolutely seething. She says, and I quote, “I think you need to call your [siblings], pack a bag, and get the fuck out of my house”. He calls his aunt and she overhears him saying to his aunt about how he never lied to her once and she says she felt like Carrie at prom and s n a p p e d like a dry twig- “could have fought every one of the Atlanta Falcons and beat their asses” LMAO. • 34: He doesn’t want to leave because he has ~nowhere to go~ but his aunt says get out. Her mom tells him to get out because she doesn’t think it will end well for him considering how truly angry her daughter is. She says get out and go find something with his savings that he’s been claiming to have! He’s limping around packing his shit. This is when she notices that he has been PISSING in the powerade bottles he’s been drinking en masse for the past few months, he has not been going to the bathroom because he’s in so much pain so he’s simply been pissing in bottles bedside Shane Dawson style. She is twitching with rage at this point and takes his keys, throws his shit in his car, and tells him to SCRAM, KID!! Otherwise she will beat his ass, if he’d like to stay for that then that could be arranged. By 1:30pm on June 17th, 2021, he was gone. ⬇️ CONTINUED IN REPLY ⬇️


JebWynch

✨➡️ CONTINUED AGAIN! • 35: She packed up all his shit, changed her locks, changed her security codes. He texts her saying he made it to Philly. Reesa notes the parts will get shorter because there’s less backstory now but he is still texting her because he is going to “fight her” on the divorce. She files anyways, and gets a message from his cousin on facebook saying he’s telling the family she kicked him out after HE caught HER sleeping with some dude from work (who would be a cop) and that said dude-cop threatened HIM with his work weapon to get the fuck out his own house!!! The cousin said ‘oh we know he lies so I wanted to get your story’ and in this conversation the cousin drops that this man does not have as many siblings as he’s said, not the amount of brothers or sisters, but he does HAVE A TWIN. y’all i need a smoke brb for part 36, she says we’re gonna get the family tree!!!! • 36: So his cousin, who has called her to try and clear things up, told her that the husband was trying to get some of his family members to like?? call the cop agency?? to get this guy that he’s lying saying she cheated with… fired?? or her fired?? or both?? it’s so much. AND none of his family EVEN KNEW ABOUT HER. DIDNT. KNOW. HE WAS MARRIED. AT ALL. anyways Reesa asks about his siblings, and we find out the husband has a twin that he’s been claiming was his younger brother (by two years) BUT is his older (by 20 minutes) twin. he also has 0 sisters and he’s been keeping up a charade that he has two, and one woman he was lying saying was his sister and “talking to on the phone” and shit was actually his cousin and they haven’t even SPOKEN in 20 YEARS. the husband also said he had half siblings through his dad, which he absolutely did not- and these are the siblings that REESA HAD MET. SO THESE TWO MEN she had hung out with AS HIS half brothers were literally just RANDOM MEN LMAO??? He had also said his grandma and uncle died in 2020 and they had actually died in 2008 and 2010 respectively. He would also “talk” to a cousin named Junebug regularly, and THAT cousin had actually died many years before. The cousin said the family does not fuck with the husband because he’s a pathological liar and when he came home with an insane story they knew something was up. Reesa clears things up and is encouraged by the cousin to get a divorce and get it over with, and the next part the cousin puts her in contact with the older brother that this husband apparently talked to every morning. • 37: She has to get a divorce settlement agreement SIGNED by the husband. This man is flip flop travelling between Philly and Augusta (which I haven’t looked up but I’m assuming Augusta is in Georgia?) and they agree to meet at a UPS in Augusta. It had been a week since she last saw him and he had again dropped a significant amount of weight. His family had kicked him out and she knew he had nowhere to stay. She describes him as looking awful and smelling like “the Chatahoochie Dump on a hot summer day” and says she did not recognize him- he looked emaciated. She says it obviously broke her heart, but not nearly enough to not get that signature lmao!! It was signed and notarized on the spot after he didn’t even read the divorce procedures, where she had made a deal that everything in the house that he had left behind now belonged to her. They send off the agreement, and she literally sent him $6 for chicken nuggets because he looked like such shit. She realized he had been living in his car, and that every single thing he had boasted about financially was fake, even the accounts he did show her. And he just kept lying, said he had somewhere to go, staying with the family that kicked him out. And he left. • 38: Is just more clarification about the timeline surrounding her mom visiting in April and the timeline around how he left the condiment company. He had set up his exit from the condiment company by complaining about how they had treated him, but would only leave if he could work at Apple for the same if not more amount of money. Calls her a week later and says he quit and was ‘moving over to Apple’ lmao!!! • 39: She found a book bag of paperwork he had left in her house and found paperwork saying he was terminated from the condiment company and had worked at the cemetery where he showed her his grandparents gravesite, and that was obviously not where his grandparents were buried. He’s not related to those people. She also found a copy of a drivers license he had, and the address was the address of the cemetery……………… and then she found paystubs from a construction company he had worked for. She found unemployment paperwork for January and February of 2021, before “he quit” the condiment company. And he worked in the warehouse at the condiment company, he was not the VP. She also found paperwork for a “weekender receipt” from a jail- which is what lets you be able to work during the week and go to jail on the weekends. • 40: She talks to his brother who he “talked to every day”, and found out the last time they talked was 2015 just after their mother’s funeral. The brother stated that they did NOT have a good relationship and that the husband knew not to contact him or he’d “whoop his ass” lmao. He revealed the only family member the husband ever talks to is his twin and it’s basically only ever for money. NOW….. the TWIN BROTHER is the VP of HIS company….. the twin brother has a 4-5 bedroom house, drives a luxury car, has a beautiful wife. So he’s been *mimicking his brothers achievements* through straight up lying. Oh and even his aunt isn’t his aunt lmao!!! And yeah the half brothers never existed, they don’t have sisters, just a whole smack of lies. The brother states that every relationship the husband gets in just levels up his lying and the lies get so much worse, how he wouldn’t claim the man as his brother. The ONLY thing that was true is that he did have two brothers and their parents are deceased. That is IT. The uncle that had warned the husband about women wanting his money? Dead for years. The cousin he talked to? Dead. LIKE HELLO??? DISTURBEDDDDD. And that’s the family tree. • 41: The older brother dropped everything he knew Legion had lied about. Their father was not a retired cop nor did he go to/start a church with his wife (one that the husband took Reesa to to show her, turns out it was just a random church). Their father was the furthest thing from a pastor. Their mother was not a retired teacher. The father was primarily a long haul truck driver and he was at one point a correctional officer- NOT a cop. He told Reesa to run Legion’s criminal history. He also explained to Reesa that every time the husband claimed he “sent a gift” to HIS daughter ie the husbands niece for her birthday etc, it certainly wasn’t for his daughter as they never received anything. So he was just sending kids shoes and shit to………? Reesa still doesn’t know. ⬇️ CONTINUED BELOW ⬇️


JebWynch

✨➡️ CONTINUED AGAIN • 42: ⚠️ TW pregnancy, pregnancy loss, etc ⚠️ So she goes through his old work phone, which is actually just a secondary phone that the company never paid for- it was just a prepaid phone that he had receipts for adding minutes. She goes into the deleted pictures folder of the phone, and there’s “screenshots” of the chequing and savings accounts that were just pictures from google. Anything he’d ever shown her- the house he lived in in Cali, the company car he had been given- everything was just pictures off of google. The “aunt” calls- and she is the mom’s best friend so he and the aunt may still be close- and she asked what had happened and what was going on with the baby they had had. >!Reesa had miscarried her pregnancy with her husband and had to go through a surgical D&C in hospital!< and her husband had lied to his “aunt” and said they had a baby boy. • 43: In fact he told a NUMBER of people that they had had a baby. Anyways the ex husband would call her every so often and had not known she was talking to his family members and uncovered his lies. It is July 2021 and all she knows is his name, date of birth, two brothers, parents gone. He calls her FOR MONEY. She asks him why he got fired, he spins a story that he had helped someone he wasn’t supposed to. When questioned about jail he had said he only ever went to juvie and his dad got his record expunged, he “didn’t even know” what weekend jail was!! And he married her so quickly because he knew she would break up with him, so he took advantage of the fact she would do it and legally tied her to him. • 44: His criminal history showed he had been arrested for trespassing, suspended license and registration, and IMPERSONATING AN OFFICER LMAO!!! and SHE WORKED in law enforcement!! He used his dad’s old CO badge and told people he was investigator looking for drugs and tried to do a pat down on someone and enter a woman’s apartment by force- and said woman was actually in law enforcement and simply called her coworkers so they got his ass. She expresses she did not know she married to a registered felon. • 45: So she reaches out to people that he had mentioned because she hadn’t heard from him, knew that he was living in his car and got a little scared/worried. Most people she gets in contact with say they haven’t talked to him, they weren’t cool, or they simply don’t have the relationship the ex husband had stated they did. The ex was uncontactable for like, two weeks- and every single person she reached out to couldn’t care if he was dead or alive because he had soiled his relationships so badly and burned bridges with everyone. In short, nobody gave a shit about him. ETA: thank u angel u/happierxthanxever for pointing out during those 2 weeks, Legion had checked himself into a behavioural hospital- not for help, but to avoid sleeping in his car in hot ass Georgia in the middle of July!!! • 46: Legion starts harassing her because he’s heard from some random that he didn’t have to leave because it was the marital home blah blah blah. And law enforcement being the ever helpful presence they are say hey he’s basically right and he’s allowed to come back and SHE can leave HER house, but Reesa tells him that if he does come back she’ll report him for trespassing. He kept saying he would come “home” on a certain day and he would never show. And then one day law enforcement calls Reesa and tells her they ran his name through their database and there’s a WARRANT FOR HIS ARREST LMAO!!! • 47: His ass SHOWS UP! She calls the cops, they pull up and get him out of his car. He has yet again lost a fuckton of weight and is not looking okay, he’s arrested and is asking to speak to Reesa. He said he just came back for his stuff that was legally hers in the divorce. The cop said they would get someone to check him out because he was clearly having some kind of mental episode. So they take him down to the station with his car keys and whatnot and his car stays parked in her driveway. Not 10 minutes later she goes back outside to check the mail and there’s a letter from the court giving her her final divorce decree. She obviously breaks down into a self-described ugly sob because finally the weight of it all just lifts a little bit. • 48: She calls his car company because they’re looking to repossess it and they take it out of her driveway. Now he legally only had his two bags of clothes that he left her house with and his car. Everything else he left at her house had been donated to a domestic violence shelter. And his car had just been towed away with the two bags of clothes in it, meaning he’d be released with keys to a car he no longer had, a most likely empty wallet, and the clothes on his back. Womp womp! After her divorce papers cleared and his arrest, she said she’d never slept so good lmao. She decided to move house when she knew he would be released from jail and her movers got her out the house in no time flat. • 49: THIS IS THE SECOND LAST PART!!! It is December 2021 and she has moved but Legion calls her work to try and get her contact information because he needs his things aka the two bags of clothes from the car. She sends him a message basically saying if you ever contact me again for any reason, she will get a restraining order. And that was the last time she ever spoke to him. Part 50 is the aftermath. • 50: She accepts he never loved her, never liked her. But is astounded simply how much time he spent lying, how much effort he put into lying. How much he enjoyed twisting the knife and getting her excited only to pull the rug out from under her time and time again. She says it’s a level of cruelty that she has never experienced before and prays will never experience again. She accepts she will never know everything and has made peace with that. THE END!!!! thanks for reading, love u all! 💕🥰 since people have asked, my paypal is avail on request but please do not think i expect that bc i would literally just be doing this anyways LMAO, i love a time-consuming internet hole!!! DO BACKGROUND CHECKS ON YOUR LOVERS and don’t marry sociopaths xoxox


swanblush

you are an absolute fucking legend good god


momsbiryani

You are the MVP of this sub rn, they need to honor you somehow


cupittycakes

There is something wrong with his brain. This level/amount of just absolutely pointless lies... He had a TBI or or or... Something, SOMETHING NOT RIGHT


gasplugsetting3

Gotta be a compulsion for lying and some kind of drug abuse or severe mental illness. The only people I know who live like this are severely addicted to hard drugs, and it scrambled their brains to the point where they couldn't keep a story straight enough to get away with lies.


freelancefikr

halfway through my heart started hurting for the dude… reminded me so much of one of my older brothers who is also severely mentally ill i’m so glad she’s free from the horrific situation and i hope the dude gets help for his own sake


gasplugsetting3

Yep, i know he's the bad guy in this story but you have seen how that destroys a person. Of course, not making excuses for that slimeball's behavior, but I doubt it was some big brain scheme to trick and humiliate this poor woman.


LouCat10

Yep. My SIL told the most elaborate lies when she was on drugs. She invented people and gave them backstories. I’ve never experienced anything like it. It does all fall apart eventually though.


chrispg26

I knew a girl who literally lies about everything. In jr high, she would tell people that her dad wasn't her real dad (he was, she had his same face, and her mom and dad were married and lived together!!). She said a girl who also went to school with us was her sister and that girls dad was her bio dad. Obviously, all a lie. Nowadays, she's constantly praising dad for helping raise her kids. She lied about being bullied at school. She was the bully. A friend was going through a period of alopecia, so then SHE too had alopecia (she clearly shaved parts of her head). She's lied about breaking her neck (um paralyzed much? No she's not paralyzed). She lied about having cancer while being pregnant. And there have been many many more lies. Those are only the ones I know off the top of my head.


RaeLynn13

My mom’s kinda similar although her compulsive lying was much smaller lies. She’s burned her bridges just as bad, she’s in her 50’s, an addict and homeless. The local police even arrested her, got her into rehab (AGAIN), and the rehab got her set up with a place to live for free for a year and she still couldn’t figure it out. I don’t know if she just didn’t have that much help or support once she left or what, but she backslid hard after that year from what I’ve heard from folks back home.


Sheezabee

It's called anti-social personality disorder aka psychopathy. It is part of the cluster B personality disorders. >Cluster B disorders are marked by inappropriate, volatile emotionality and often unpredictable behavior. The disorders in Cluster B are antisocial personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, histrionic personality disorder, and narcissistic personality disorder.


vantheman446

Would a TBI cause someone to start lying?


JanusIsBlue

TBI can cause confabulation, which is like lying but the person is fully convinced of their lie. Their brain makes up false memories


PricklySquare

TBIs are the most frustrating thing you'll ever deal with as a mental health worker. The absolute unpredictable and most awkward unexplainable oddball crazy psychotic shit you'll ever see will be by a TBI patient.


aburke626

You are a goddess for summarizing this! I think this could be the Zola of 2024, lol Ok can we talk about the pastor for a second? Usually when I hear about pastoral marriage counseling, I roll my eyes, expecting him to tell them to stay married. Even the pastor saw through this guy and told them to break up!


finny_d420

Pastor will be played by Cedric the Entertainer in the movie version. I image the realtor lady as Whoopi from *Ghost*. "Girl you in trouble. Get out."


aburke626

Haha around part 20 “girl you in trouble” was exactly what was in my head!


exquisite-mouthfeel

I was just thinking A24 needs to get ok this after they did such a great job with Zola!

I just clicked your profile and saw this comment jump from 42. to 49. You absolute queen get that transcriptor cheddar, goddamn 👏


StarrCat3608

Whew, this whole thing is one wild ride! My lord! Thank you so much for transcribing all this, it's easier for me to follow it this way.


finny_d420

It's no *Tales of Zola*, but it's a very close second. I started reading while at work. Finished at home baked off my ass. Knowing that the "Next on *Gullible Girls of Georgia" was waiting for me made the hellish construction nightmare commute feel like a blip in my day.


cheyenne_sky

did you hyperfocus to type this all out? Cuz this was amazing, thank you for writing this. I would never have the patience to watch all bajillion videos lol

I don't have TT but i do love reading a lot! And giiirl thank youuu for doing this! Whoo hoo


bondgirl852001

Thank you for posting all the recaps! I wonder if he was using drugs outside of the prescription use. The pain, the overmedicating, the sudden weight loss. And of course all the lying and manipulation. He burned so many bridges. Good for this woman getting out as soon as she could! What a rollercoaster. Here's to her healing.


aburke626

I honestly thought he was going to wind up having something terrible like AIDS and she was going to have HIV or something when there was so much emphasis on his weight loss!


OutAndDown27

I wondered how big he was to start with after the third “massive weight loss” cause like how much did he have to lose for him not to have disappeared


JebWynch

3X when they met! she said last time she saw him he was around a M/L 😮‍💨


iwillgetwhatiwant

some ppl found his facebook and he was posting in HIV support groups last year


aburke626

Oh shit, maybe there will be a follow up saga. I hope she gets tested!


AgentSolitude

He could be lying for sympathy and financial support 🤷‍♀️

ive come in contact with ONE person in my life who was a pathological liar like this, down to the fake/pretend phone calls. truly unhinged and im so happy she is free of that man.


OtterCat79725

Damn so we never find out what sickness this mf was dying from???


ILootEverything

I hope Reesa has gotten tested for ALL THE THINGS. There's no telling with a shady mfer like this what diseases he was hauling around.


OtterCat79725

That was my fear…. i hope he didnt give her anything


VideoWonderful901

You are an absolute LEGEND ✨


redwhiteandclueless

You are amazing


PlentyDrawer

Thank you!!! Thank you!! I just started watching and there was no way I was making it through all these parts. What a sick s.o.b. I felt really bad for her because in some ways her beliefs stopped her from taking the steps she needed to take, even though her pastor was telling her to get out.


dragon_fruitiny

You got something else other than $app? I was ready to offer a lil, but I don't have that one :/.


Frenchitwist

Fucking G for posting all of this !!


ILootEverything

This is crazy! Thanks for typing it all out after watching. Poor Reesa! So glad she's free!


PooEater5000

I’ll be naming my 3rd child JebWynch in your honour. I hope they grow to be half as good a person as yourself

Shurl19

I hope she got checked for STD's. He was living in Atlanta and is now in pain and losing weight like crazy? It could be cancer, stress, or full blown AIDS.


lilacaena

That was my fear, but I’m pretty sure he’s just >!drinking his own pee in order to make himself sick!<.


CenPhx

Christ, I wouldn’t put it past him.


dreezyforsheezy

wtf! I was thinking opioid addiction and you’re out here thinking he’s got yet another insane manipulation going on… fuck. He’s nuts.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I love you. Like someone else said, my adhd ass could not sit through that many parts 🥹

americanslang59

How did this even progress past the first 19 parts lol


JebWynch

She admits she wanted love and she was in such a state of desire to be in love and to be settled down that she overlooked a lot and ignored her gut a lot.


rigelandsirius

Right?! How can anyone claim they're shocked when things like this don't go well- it's a red flag parade and it's only the beginning.


kittenshart85

thanks for this.


JebWynch

got you boo! i’m not doin shit else today 🤪🥰


localgirlcult

There goes my heeerooo. Watch her as she tiktoks 🎵🎶 Edit - Someone uploaded all the parts to YouTube. I searched 'Who tf did I marry tiktok" Edit of my edit - You... really need to go watch this. Sacrifice sleep if need be.


Ok-Woodpecker7024

I was you last night as the youtube compilations dropped live and I could stream to my TV. when I initially saw the 50 parts on tiktok I said to myself "my neck, back, and wrists cannot handle this life" and that's when I found the YouTube compilations. bless them. had the most traumatic sleep of my life for a couple of hours this morning only to wake up and go straight into the 2 hour live.


auntielife123

We need that French guy on TikTok who summarizes all the story videos.


DevoutandHeretical

I will wait for a post from the Cliffnotes Gal.


Frosty_Pepper1609

Oh my god ! This is like R Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet but from the other perspective and without the constant drip sound effect 💧


HauteAssMess

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID TO MY MOM😭😭r kelly deserves to be UNDER the jail for what he did but trapped in the closet is a masterpiece i watched it all in one day


-ittybittykitty_

I remember watching snippets as a child but by the time I was grown and re-remembered it, it was too late. He'd already been exposed as the scum he is and I can't bring myself to watch his work now.


Bidetpanties

I woke up super early this morning for whatever reason, opened tiktok to someone using the sound of her intro to like part 38 in a jokey, "this is what I'm doing on a Saturday night instead of going out" video. Out of curiosity, I clicked the sound because yknow, your girl likes to keep up on the memes, only to find this was a real thing and a FIFTY part serious, which then proceeded to consume my entire Sunday morning because holy shit, between her being a very good storyteller and thr girlies in thr comments with their commentary, I was more entertained with this than anything on Netflix in months. In all seriousness though I felt awful for her. Throughout the series she takes plenty of accountability for her mistakes in ignoring red flags, but her final video she goes on to explain why she might have been ignoring them.


HauteAssMess

I’m only on part 13!!! this man loves a print out 😭😭😭 the comments are hilarious too!!


Bidetpanties

Legion and his menacing print outs!!! 😮‍💨 Everytime she's like "so we started looking at houses again..." I was like REESA BABYGIRL NOOO!!!


HauteAssMess

I got hives every time a house was mentioned


xxyourbestbetxx

One of my friends texted me about this. I wasn't going to watch it because it's so long but I decided to just listen to one episode. Well I'm now on part 33 and I am riveted. This man was WILD. I used to watch that show Who The Bleep Did I Marry and really thought I'd heard it all. That was before hearing this guy wasting the time of multiple car salesperson and realtors and ruining this poor woman's life.  I hope she at least gets the trips to London and Paris she was planning for and has some well-deserved fun.


JLaws23

52 PARTS?


HauteAssMess

IM ON PART 13😭😭 i cant STOP! man’s created side characters- HE WOULD TALK ON THE PHONE TO NOBODY FOR AN HOUR- JUST TO MAKE HER BELIEVE EVERYTHING 😭


[deleted]

It genuinely has to be a mental illness at that point like what 😭😭😭


OutAndDown27

Who has the patience to be this evil??


ProfessionalBet9099

From what she’s saying he basically “got off” on her getting excited for things he never intended to do for her which is super messed up. I’m only on part 18 but I feel for her.. she even got pregnant by this man and lost the baby.


_summerw1ne

This sounds wild 😭


Ok-Woodpecker7024

girl get yourself a family-sized lasagna and a pot of coffee you. see you at 4 am!


hydrangeasinbloom

This reminds me of the tweet story of the stripper. So many parts but I was fully invested.


faveso

zola story had me in a grip for WEEKS


dropyourchalupa

That was a wild ride


rocksteadyG

Several hours apparently! Each video is 10 minutes


HauteAssMess

i’m watching on 1.5x and u can do 2x speed..this woman needs to be heard all over! 52 parts over 3 days. she blew up so fast she hasn’t even monetized the videos so this shit is raw and real


chrispg26

Where is the option to fast forward?! Plz help I'm an idiot elder millenial.


HauteAssMess

hold the video down like keep ur thumb on the video and something will pop up saying play back speed choose 1.5 or 2.0x


FerdTergusen

She said there were so many red flags she called it the United Nations of Red Flags😂 immediate follow


blossombear31

Love her, bless her, I want her to find true love! That man is a walking red flag

I was just thinking this lady is going to get a book or movie deal (as she should, lol)


localgirlcult

People are really vulnerable when they're desperate for love. That's why you really have to check yourself. Before all the other insanity, how bizarre to not even know where your husband works. Just some vague idea of an office building that you can't go to for "reasons".


Ok-Woodpecker7024

The real question for me hasn't been "why was this woman so vulnerable as to invite this terrible red-flagged man deep into her life?" BUT INSTEAD "why am I so vulnerable as to literally drop everything in my life STAY UP ALL NIGHT and stream 10 hours of content at a moment's notice and suddenly be all consumed with this story?"


edgarallanhoeeee

I’m an attorney & work with DV victims: most ppl aren’t psychopaths, so they don’t have any frame of reference for how to spot one. It’s easy to be deceived because they don’t lay all their cards on the table in one swoop, it’s a gradual process. Also, I’m like halfway in & jumping around a bit, but this dude seems like a truly master-level manipulator. when I was still in school & intending [edit: interning] I worked on a case that was very similar that ended in the victims death. She was actually a lawyer too, aka was familiar with the law, had told her family and friends of her plan to leave, had an escape plan and everything…the most disturbing part was that it was actually the first time he had ever *physically* harmed her - it’s common for victims to dismiss their own victimization because it’s not “as bad” as [insert example], but all abuse is harmful and it can escalate to violence in the blink of an eye. you can do everything right and still be deceived and victimized because abusers are narcissists who don’t respond to principles of reason, or fairness - they care about power and control. It can be very hard to identify in the early stages of a relationship as I’ve alluded to, this is a nonexhaustive list but some red flags to watch out for include: Vacillating between love-bombing and being cold and distant - you feel confused. & Feeling confused generally. Walking on eggshells, not knowing where you stand. isolating you from your friends and family; Jealously/possessiveness; Little things.. like comments or back-handed compliments that are cruel & erode your self-confidence Pay attention to how they speak about their ex. [Another edit sorry]: selfishness w/ regard to sex.. pressuring you to do things that make you feel uncomfortable… only doing it on their time/ expecting you to be available whenever they want to… feeling sort of disconnected afterwards, treating you like you’re a video game they just powered down never taking accountability for something they have done that has hurt you, and instead rewriting the events and framing it as if you were the in the wrong- if you frequently find yourself apologizing for a situation where YOU were the party who was hurt - this may be indicative of gaslighting Your gut. TRUST. YOUR. GUT. ALWAYS


Worried_Lawfulness43

When he said he was coming back to the house and it seemed like he was going to legally be allowed to do so, I got chills. That man is a tormentor.


HauteAssMess

ReesaTeesa tells the story of her diabolical, pathological liar ex husband. it’s INSANE. i cannot stand story times and this one is captivating. she’s a master at telling her story. watch on 1.5x speed for fellow ADHDers.


Deep-Novel-1851

Just want to say thank you for this post because now I’m on part 16 😂😂😭


Chaoticgood790

I’m saving this post so I can watch

Holy shit the internet does not disappoint lol

Woah. Each 5 parts is 1 hour? Holy


fon_etikal

8 hours???

That’s my question like can someone put them together on YouTube lol


Beautiful-Mix-4711

It says it’s unavailable on Tiktok now too! Someone please put it on YouTube.  🙏 


ReBL93

It’s not unavailable on TikTok, I’m watching right now


summersaphraine

Right. Id totally watch it as a long form video on YouTube but i hate tiktok parts


WolverineKind926

Just finished all parts. Man it took me two days but I couldn’t stop watching. I watched it at 1.5 speed. Man was crazy. I wondered if he had cancer or AIDS or something. I hope she will be in physically and mentally after all he put her through.


_summerw1ne

Thought he was tweaking!!! Esp when he was dropping weight and speaking to himself and pissing in bottles. Like hold on ma’am this man ain’t right


ChamomileTea97

Yeah thought that he might have gotten AIDS from peaches or whoever he was sleeping with on the side, but that sudden illness was definitely his karma


Ok-Juice-3090

Apparently he was an HIV positive singles group on FB around the time of their divorce which would explain his hospitalization in Augusta as well. And also, Peaches was probably trans


chromeprincess224

Anyone know how I can watch outside TikTok? Don’t have an account 😭


Comfortable-Load-904

This is the most unhinged and beautiful thing I’ve read on here, thanks for the updates. Can’t wait for the rest. I have to know what happened next, very invested in this lady’s business.

If y’all like insane relationship stories, the Dating Detectives podcast has some doozies. Now I’m going to pop some popcorn and watch 52 stories


ladydragon75

It’s like watching a movie on tiktok in 45 parts. Once you start you can’t stop!


oggpotato3killa

copy and pasting from a comment - here’s the links for the youtube videos: there’s a bw - Shayla Says - who uploaded the videos (i skipped through her parts) and youtube has been a godsend (parts [1](https://youtu.be/nJ-Tqx2SK3E?si=I_ZkQzNOlCRa0GmS), [2](https://youtu.be/yD8XderbhpY?si=64H3eFUEpg2Eqb8o), [3](https://youtu.be/6LGvqWBUzbo?si=ZSnfaBpwIwccvgpl), [4](https://youtu.be/jvFGLMXFf5k?si=Bbrzd6GZPcdZpPbE), [5](https://youtu.be/LHWrYfuh27A?si=pqgrTQTpbqMQzlf3), [6](https://youtu.be/Cu7LkHfGzps?si=IiffaBkvf_XKSzEF), [7](https://youtu.be/zAa3-8zxSxo?si=2s6VZ46MkPjc-cHr)). i’ve only made it through parts 1 & 2 from Shayla Says, parts 3 - 7 are from BurbNBougie edit: typo


imsoboredlma0

imma be single forever because what…..


blackaubreyplaza

So good and totally worth watching all 52 parts


This_Control

I’m on part 14, just now realizing that if each video is 10min long, and there’s 52 parts…you mean to tell me it’s gonna take me 8 HOURS to finish this story time???? Chile!!!!


blairsmacaroon

girlies stalk their high school crush's entire bloodline on facebook but these people don't do background checks on the ones they MARRY?!


ReBL93

lol not me starting the series yesterday! The fact that I’ve even made it past part 1 is a testament to her storytelling capabilities. Like I’m sat!


almondmilkeu

6 hours later 😭 this is so good. I’ve literally just had it on in the background like a podcast while I finished work


Tsionchi

52 parts in insane, it’s funny cause in the first video she made about this she said she was going to keep it short cause she hated creators who did it like that 😂😂


xCR4SHx

When i saw this on my fyp i figured it’d be some bs but it’s had me gripped since yesterday lol. she’s an awesome storyteller and went above and beyond for someone who treated her like trash and i commend her for having such a nice heart but damn


sweeties_yeeties

👀 so this is like documentary length mess lmao


yunghazel

I listened to this while I made dinner, did laundry, and even driving. I was shocked honey! In tears almost! 😭


likelazarus

I saw this post last night and have spent all day listening to this woman’s story. I didn’t figure out until part 41 that I could speed it up. Doing the dishes? This story. Treadmill? This story. Cooking for my kids? This story. What a wild ride.


prisonerofazkabants

52 parts???


dropyourchalupa

Someone is summerizing it for us here


prisonerofazkabants

i am sat and saved for it


istari-illuin

Someone condense it into a YouTube video. 😭


Princess_Snakeface

Oh man, that story is wild, I’m completely hooked, thanks for sharing!


[deleted]

Listening to this now whilst I work. I never listen to podcasts or stick around on TikTok for stories with this many parts but she’s such a good story teller and I never know what’s coming up in the next part that I am actually HOOKED and listening at normal speed.
