He Had A Literal Child Bride”: 47 Horrific Things People Discovered About Their “Fun Friend

47.

Finally, we’ll end on a long one: “I met a dude over RuneScape WAY back in the day. We became really good friends for over 15 years. We met IRL a few times and hung out, always gaming together in a small group. There were a few women in the gaming group, and they kinda abruptly left. I’m married with children; he was always single and had admitted to me a few times that he was jealous of my life. I never understood why; he came from a wealthy family. They had a literal mansion on a lake, four boats, and more cars than I could count; the dude had an entire floor of the house and a wrap-around balcony to himself. He got whatever he wanted, when he wanted. All I had that he didn’t was a wife and child. I never cared or saw him as lesser, but he saw me with jaded eyes.”

“He sent some messages to my wife that were not okay, and I confronted him. He tried to lie at first, but I had the screenshots to prove it. I ended up talking to some of our former gamer friends who were women. Turns out he was being extremely creepy toward them, and it had gotten so bad that one of them had called the cops. He found out where she lived via internet stalking, and fucking drove to her state without asking or saying anything to try and ‘game and hang.’ Another one was going through stressful stuff, and he was trying to manipulate her into moving in with him, and kept telling her he’d take care of her.

The third and last one had a boyfriend, and he somehow got the guy’s number and was doxxing him and being really weird towards her. He was also telling them shit like how the other members (all dudes) would gang rape them and other fucked-up stuff, and they thought we were all fucking weirdos and dipped. I cleared the air with them, and some of the messages they showed me he had sent were downright disgusting. He was literally a different person. He presented himself as a nice guy who just couldn’t ever get a date, when it was actually because he gave off rapist/killer vibes. He had a girlfriend in the past, and it ended badly; his story was that she cheated. We found out that what had actually happened was that he was controlling and toxic, and she literally couldn’t use the restroom without him watching because he was paranoid she would leave. Then they got pregnant, and he forced her to have a miscarriage by having her eat a bunch of shit that was bad for a developing fetus.

We ended up parting ways. It’s been over a year since we last spoke. He claims to have a girlfriend and is doing well, but idk, lines were crossed that were not supposed to be. It also creeps me out because aside from the other shit, he’s 30 and the girl he’s with just turned 21. She’s extremely religious and already living with him. I can’t help but wonder what will happen if she ends up pregnant. It gives me the fucking ick. We sent a message to the girl AND the person she had listed as her mom, but all we got back was a message from the former friend saying not to do that again.

It really opened my eyes to how you can know someone so long and not actually know them.”
