If you were seeing someone who promised they were exclusively dating you, only to find out that you’re actually their side piece and they already are in a committed relationship with someone else, what would you do?
This 22-year-old girl matched with a 27-year-old guy on a dating app a while ago. Back when this guy first sent her a message, she took her time responding, as she wasn’t that interested in him.
She was in her second year of college, and he was in his second year of studying medicine. After growing bored and getting pressured by her friends for being jealous of them having boyfriends, she sent him a message back.
They began talking pretty much every day, and he would share details about his life with her. He grew on her in time, and she did think he was worth her attention.
”After 4 months of talking, we decided to meet up. I was incredibly hesitant and shy because I was completely new to dating, but he was persistent,” she explained.
She didn’t end up going all the way with him on their first date because she was too scared. She then ghosted him for a couple of days before speaking to him again.
Three months later, he invited her over to his place, and she said yes. They made out, and from there, she started coming over on a weekly basis. The third time she came to his house, she slept with him.
“Afterward, I told him I wanted our relationship to be exclusive. He agreed, and we even set boundaries. Because I had an inkling of doubt, I repeatedly asked him if he had a wife or a girlfriend,” she explained.
“He denied it every single time. Trusting him, I agreed to the arrangement. For the next six months, I kept going to his apartment, [sleeping with him], and staying over because he invited me to.”

”However, I always felt suspicious about why he kept me such a secret, but I kept my doubts to myself. That was until recently.”
She had to go to a school even close to his apartment, and while she was out and about, she caught him standing outside of a 7-Eleven with another girl.
She instantly messaged him and asked if he was at the hospital that night, and he lied and said he was. From there, she stalked him on his social media profiles and uncovered a tagged photo of his real girlfriend.
He started dating this girl months before she even met him, and that means she’s been cast as his side chick, without her consent!
“I am so incredibly hurt, angry, and betrayed. I haven’t confronted him about it yet, and I don’t know what to do next. Should I reach out and tell the girlfriend the truth so she knows what kind of guy he is?” she wondered.
“Or should I just block him, protect my peace, and move on with my life?”
Always tell the girlfriend! She should make an anonymous account on social media and reach out to her with screenshots so there’s irrefutable proof.
Oh, and she should block this guy and never speak to him again while she’s at it!
What do you think she should do?
