I am 20-years-old female, you can call me Linda and my ex is 20-year-old male, you can call him Liam. We broke up in October due to feeling unhappy in the relationship. I felt heart broken and sad, couple days later he begins to talk to many different girls on his social media and re-follows his ex. He moves on so fast which makes me question did he ever love me. He begins to talk to this girl who seems very interested in him and he does seem interested back. I’m not proud of it but I made a fake social media account as a male and get in contact with this girl. We soon start posting eachother and than I made my profile her picture and she completely freaks out because Liam sees it. Mind you he is still asking me to come over to sleep with me and have himself muted on the phone with her. She soon blocks me after getting caught and makes up a story telling him I am some crazy guy that is into him. I start to put pressure in this situation that is where he starts stressing about the situation because apparently the girl is underage. He is always stressed, and she stresses as well because I am guessing she was just there for the fun and not for stressed, so she tells him she no longer wants to talk to him which breaks his heart and causes him to begin drinking to fill up the "emptiness in him". But that is where I begin to be sad because I made him feel the same way I did. So AITA or what? FYI He knows I’m pregnant
YTA he has his faults but you intentionally went after him.
YTA. Whilst it sucks to see people pretend that they’re fine and avoid mulling over a break up (that seems to be what Liam’s doing and he might be a little immature with his emotions), Liam isn’t your problem anymore. With that said, you’ve just admitted to catfishing this girl that he might be into just to inflict emotional damage? Or as revenge? That seems like the “if i can’t have him, no one can” card. That can’t be ignored. Move on swiftly and gracefully, don’t be emotionally manipulative.
YTA and you already know this. Time to grow up and move on Linda.
YTA. now you’re dragging the girl with your problem. Sheesh.
Catfishing people isn’t good in almost any context, you will hopefully learn that manipulation isn’t the way to get over your grievances with people.
YTA this is very unhealthy behaviour.
am i the only one who’s so fucking confused on what is even going on?
High school drama, that’s whats going on. Nothing for the grown ups to concern themselves with.
I was thinking they must be about 13. And I don’t believe a word of it.
YTA. You are obsessed with your ex and that is leading to you to engage in unhealthy, loser-like behaviour. Getting broken up with is not the end of the world, move on with your life before you land yourself into real trouble. Find something productive to do, get a journal, talk to a therapist, a new haircut or hobby, anything but this nonsense.
YTA to that girl. Messing her around and pretending to be someone else.
YTA. You know fully well what you did
To sum up, three unhinged cheaters and drama-loving individuals met each other and live happily ever after.
Linda, listen, you were both unhappy. You broke up. Move on a stop having sex with him. You catfishing him or her (I seriously can’t tell cause how you told this story is just a word salad) is wrong. Manipulation makes you an asshole no matter if you think he wasn’t that into you to begin with.
YTA. How about you block, delete his number and move the fuck on?
