'"I’m 27, I met a guy at a club. We instantly connected, & I really liked him. Things moved fast, & we’ve been inseparable ever since. He took me to his place that night & we did it. I truly felt we were falling for each other. He seemed like such a good person.
We've been going strong for 4 days now. And felt true love, due to excitement, this morning, I was excited to finally share a photo of us on my Facebook Story. A few hours later, I got a message from a follower asking some strange questions about my boyfriend. They asked where & when I met him, & if the photo was new. When I said yes, their response was "Jesus!" I was curious, I pressured them for details, & what they told me sent shivers down my spine. They said that if the person in the photo was who they suspected, he was a friend's brother who had passed away 2 years ago in a bike accident
My heart was racing, but I tried to stay calm, thinking it was a mistake or a case of mistaken identity. The follower then reached out to his friend's family to confirm. A short time later, a strange number called me. It was a man claiming to be my boyfriend’s brother. He sent me pictures, & I confirmed the person in those photos was exactly the guy I've been dating.
I am absolutely shocked, confused & tensed. I’ve heard stories like this, but never thought I would be in one. I’m scrd, I haven't felt like myself all since then. I immediately blocked his number.
Now, looking back, certain things about him seem strange:
He rarely went out during the day, preferring to meet only at night.
He would often avoid having his full face in photos with me. He never talked about friends or family. This all makes an unbelievable amount of sense now 😥😭🤦🏽♂️
Please, I am completely overwhelmed & need a reality check. Has anyone ever experienced anything even remotely similar? I am so sc-rd. What is the best way to handle this situation? Please kindly help a sister, give me your honest & thoughtful advice. I'm currently at a friend's house. I'm scr_d to be alone.😥😥"
