She Caught Her Son And His Best Friend’s Girlfriend Together On Surveillance Footage, And She Thought She Raised Her Son Better Than That
When this 38-year-old woman was just 16, she gave birth to her eldest son, who is now 22.
While they have had their fair share of ups and downs throughout their mother-son relationship, she loves him dearly. Her son has also been through everything with her, right by her side.
So, despite her son struggling with his own personal challenges throughout his life, she thinks that he is on the right track. They have also remained close, even as he’s grown into young adulthood.
But, her son has a close 25-year-old friend whom he has known for about four years now. She also believes that the friend has had a positive influence on her son ever since their friendship began.
“He is the one who bailed my son out of jail the last time he was arrested and set him up with a job upon his release as well,” she recalled.
“I love my son’s friend, and I enjoy having him around. He is like family to us and is welcome around our house whenever.”
Just about a year ago, after her son’s friend began dating a 24-year-old woman, the girlfriend even became like family, too.
She thinks of her son’s friend’s girlfriend as the daughter she never had since she has three boys herself.
She wound up getting to know the friend’s girlfriend really well, and she has grown to love the young woman– who is reportedly talented, smart, funny, and downright beautiful.

According to her, everyone could tell that her son’s friend seriously loved his girlfriend, too. The girl also seemed to love him back, and their relationship appeared to be going wonderfully from the outside.
That’s why she never suspected that her son was hooking up with his friend’s girlfriend behind his friend’s back.
“They had the most normal friend relationship you’d ever see. Almost brother and sister-in-law like. No flirting, no out-of-the-ordinary remarks ever made… strictly platonic,” she revealed.
So, without a certain series of random events just recently, she never would have caught her son and his friend’s girlfriend together.
For context, she has both indoor and outdoor security cameras at her home despite living in a fairly safe neighborhood. She also claimed that she and her husband only ever check them if an incident happens.
But just a few days ago, their dog escaped, and they could not determine how their pup managed to get out.
That was when she decided to check the security cameras, and as she was rewinding through the footage, she stumbled upon a recording of her son and his friend’s girlfriend.
Now, she detailed how the “rewind” setting was at a fast speed. So, once she decided to hit the “pause” button, the footage stopped on a frame in which her son and his friend’s girlfriend were indecent and hooking up on the couch.
“I was horrified and confused and kept rewinding it to see how this started, and partially because I couldn’t believe what the [heck] I just saw,” she explained.
“It showed my son leading her into the house and putting on a movie. Some kissing happened, leading up to the rest of the… stuff.”
She has not yet confronted her son about what she saw. But she admitted that the cheating had been seriously weighing on her mind, and she was very disappointed.
She thought she had raised her son better and never imagined that he would hurt a close friend.
Her own heart also hurts for her son’s friend because she knows how much he loves his girlfriend and views her own son as a brother.
That’s why she is really torn about what to do.
“I’m not sure how long this has been going on, as I’ve only seen this one ‘thing.’ But he seemed pretty comfortable leading her into the house and doing it so blatantly out in the open in the living room,” she vented.
So, she’s now been left wondering whether she should keep what she saw to herself or confront her son and make it known that she is aware of their cheating.
Does it sound like her son really is on the “right track?” How would you feel if you caught your child sneaking around behind their best friend’s back? Do you think she should keep her discovery to herself? Or should she tell her son that she knows and make him come clean?
