This story is the definition of creepy.
A “meet-cute” is how two people — who eventually romantically date — first meet.
One would assume that meet-cutes are usually spontaneous and romantic, however much to one woman’s horror, she discovered in an unexpected way that her boyfriend staged how they initially met.
She posted about the scary discovery on r/TrueOffMyChest subreddit — which seems to have been removed by Reddit’s moderators. Luckily some excerpts of the original posting were shared by the Daily Dot.
Sounding like a scene straight from the show, “You” — on a recent night out together, this woman’s boyfriend drunkenly said, “Could you believe we wouldn’t be this happy if I hadn’t watched you for so long?”
That sentence will sober someone right up.
Confused as anyone in her shoes would be, she asked him to elaborate — and the confessions just got worse.
Supposedly, her boyfriend revealed that when he first laid eyes on her, he didn’t immediately introduce himself — which would’ve been the normal, rational thing to do.
Instead, he quielty observed her — he eavesdropped on her conversations with friends, he made mental notes of her likes and her personality quirks.
He then planned to “bump” into her at a coffee shop she liked — where he ordered her favorite drink.
Beyond creepy.
Thinking it was fate that brought them together, one could imagine how betrayed and weirded out this girlfriend felt learning all this.
“I mainly am just upset because I feel like our relationship was built on a lie, even if it was a smallish one,” she wrote in the post.
“Hellllllllll no this is the creepiest thing I read in a while,” one commenter wrote.
“Well, if he can lie about this and hide it for so long what else do you think he could be lying about? After hearing that, I would assume there would be more things hes been lying about,” another user pointed out.
“Go with your gut. This dude literally stalked you and manipulated you into going out with him,” wrote someone else.
This woman’s story got even more bizarre.
As Reddit users were chiming in on the thread with their thoughts on the situation — suddenly, the woman edited her original post at the top writing, “I was wrong. My boyfriend didn’t do anything wrong.”
But then, at the bottom of the post, users noticed the OP said she wanted to chat more with her boyfriend about this discovery and how she was feeling about it.
Users sensed something fishy was going on.
“Ummm I need some clarification on the edit at the top.. Is there a comment thread somewhere in here that explains? OP, you okay?” a concerned commenter wrote.
“As soon as I saw the edit on the top, I got super concerned. OP please let us know if you’re okay,” another comment read.
“That update definitely doesn’t sit well with me either. I hope OP is okay; this is such a creepy and concerning post all around,” a concerned commenter shared.
The woman hasn’t made many additional edits to her post since — and there hasn’t been an update.
