He Discovered His Niece Was Playing Cruel Pranks On Him And His Wife So He’s Telling The Internet He Canceled Paying For Her To Go To College

A man says that he and his wife have been trying to get pregnant for several years, but their biggest hurdle is infertility.

They have a few more solutions to try in order to have a child of their own, but everything is starting to feel hopeless for them.

This man has a niece who is 16-years-old, and he has always considered her to be more like his own daughter. She also is a friend to him.

Since he is very well off money-wise, he wanted to pay for his niece to go to college, hoping that she would be able to go anywhere she so chose.

His brother and his brother’s wife (who is really the stepmom of his niece) both know that he cares deeply about funding this teen’s college dreams, and they are appreciative of him spending his money this way.

His niece’s parents do make sure to tell him that he is loving, considerate, and wonderful.

Lately, he has been experiencing some bizarre things happening to him. For example, he will get random texts while he is in the office, and the person is trying to convince him that they are his wife.

The person will say that they have important news for him, or they will say that his wife is finally pregnant.

He also has found strange notes left on top of his car when he happens to be visiting his mom and dad.

The notes, again, are from someone trying to convince him that they have been written by his wife and the notes will say that his wife is pregnant.

“My wife and I had no idea who’s been playing us like that,” he explained. “We knew it was someone close and had many that made our suspect list including my BIL.”

A few days ago, while he was at the home of his brother, he noticed his niece slipped out of the house for a couple of minutes before coming back.

He left shortly afterward and saw a sign sitting on the windshield of his car.

“I took a look and the sign read “I’m pregnant” written largely. I was confused because I knew no one from this neighborhood and suspected someone who knew me did it,” he continued.

“I called my wife and she again said this was false news. I took the sign and went back to my brother’s house to help figure this out.”

His brother insisted that whoever left the sign on his car picked the wrong person, but this man said it had already occurred to him several times before then.

His brother wasn’t sure what to make of it, but then his sister-in-law mentioned that the handwriting on the sign seemed to be the same as his niece’s handwriting.

His brother thought it was ludicrous, but he asked his niece to come to take a look at the sign. At first, his niece said it wasn’t her handwriting, but then she caved and said it was her.

She also had been the one to send the texts and write the letters he previously received. She tried to say she was just doing it “for laughs.”

“I blew up telling her she was out of line to think mocking mine and my wife’s suffering and playing us was for months was funny,” he said.

He was furious, he was hurt, and he never thinks he will ever be able to look at her in the same way ever again.

His niece was like his daughter, his friend, and he couldn’t believe she could be so cruel. He immediately told his brother and his sister-in-law that he was no longer going to be paying for his niece to go to college.

His niece had a breakdown as she attempted to excuse away her behavior as just being a playful, teasing thing.

His brother thinks that was his niece did was a tiny mistake, and feels mad that no longer paying for her to college will hurt her future forever.

Here’s what the internet had to say.

“But it probably wouldn’t hurt if you sent her a few mysterious texts that said “You won a scholarship!” just for laughs.”

“You just don’t mess around with false pregnancy announcements within a relationship. This is not a victimless crime.”

“Fertility is an incredibly sensitive topic even when everything is going well, and dial it up to 1000 when it’s not.”

“Without any more info I would even say that your niece needs to see a therapist, this is really insensitive and dark on a personality disorder level.”

“Not saying she’s sociopathic, but this is really disturbing and scary stuff. This is very NOT normal.”

“…This was terrifyingly calculated. Think about the steps & lengths she must’ve gone to, sneaking around & planning it out each time.”

“It’s not just cruel, it was methodical, & the psychopathy of that isn’t good.”

“Pranks are only funny if everyone’s laughing. You weren’t laughing. Your niece is old enough to know her behavior was unacceptable and unacceptable behavior comes with consequences.”

“Spend the money on fertility treatments for you and your wife. Your family is entitled thinking you owned them that money.”

“Your niece played a stupid game and won a stupid prize! And her parents should have some shame and be responsible for their daughter’s education.”
