Speaker 1 (00:03):
I'm gonna keep this brief. I never thought I would
get to that point with Sarah. We did it for
over a year, mostly good times, a few arguments, but
nothing serious. I was twenty two, she was twenty one,
and everything seemed normal up until one night it all snapped.

(00:24):
It started small. She'd get upset over text I didn't
reply too fast enough. Little things was set her off.
I thought it was distress, but over time it escalated.
One night, I came home late from my friend's place
and she was waiting for me in the living room.
Her eyes were wide, frantic, like she'd been pacing. You

(00:46):
didn't answer my messages. Where were you? I shrugged. I
was with Jake, just talking. Sorry if I made you worry.
She stared at me for a moment and then just snapped,
I believe you. She stood up, and I remember feeling
my heart racing. I didn't know what was happening, but

(01:07):
I could definitely sense something was wrong. The next few
weeks were worse. She showed up to my work unannounced.
She would send me ten twenty thirty texts a day.
I told her I need space, but she didn't understand.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
It wasn't about love. It was about control. Thank him.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
The night I'll never forget, I'd been texting a friend
about meeting up for coffee. It wasn't anything suspicious, just
casual conversation, but Sarah had been acting off all day.
When I got home, she was standing by the door,
her hands shaking. You think you can leave me for
someone else. I told her to calm down, that I

(01:50):
just had coffee with a friend. Before I could finish,
she lunched at me, grabbing a kitchen knife off the counter.
My mind went blank and all I could think was
to run. I sprinted for the door, and as I
reached the hallway, I felt a sharp pain in my side.
She nicked me, but it didn't matter. The adrenaline had

(02:10):
kicked in. I pushed through the pain, finally slamming the
door between us. I didn't stop running. I ran for
blocks until I found a twenty four hour diner. I
was shaken up at that point. I called the police,
and by the time they arrived at her apartment, she
was gone. The next few days felt like I was

(02:32):
on a fog. I had cut on my side, but
it wasn't too deep. I never saw her again after
the night, but I'll never forget what she was capable of.
I changed my number, moved the next town over, and
never looked back. I learned the hard way that some people,
no matter how much you cared for them, can turn

(02:53):
dangerous when their grip of reality slips. I was a
child between five and ten years old. I remember bits
and pieces, but some of it is what I recall
from my mother telling me years ago. My mom had

(03:17):
a friend we grew up with, Donna. Donna and her
daughter would come over and hang out with me and
my sister numerous times, having sleepovers and things like that.
One time, Donna was fighting with her boyfriend and I
guess had fled to our house daring the breakup, or
maybe she was already over at our house when I

(03:37):
ex freaked out. Either way, I remember being hurried into
my sister's room by Donna, along with my sister and
Donna's daughter. Donna flipped my sister's full sized bed on
its side and had us laid down against the wall
with a mattress and box frame leaning against the wall
above us, then.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Moved the dresser to the door.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
I closed my eyes and covered my ears because I
was still a fred of the dark and my sister
kept crying. This is the last I remember of that night.
My mom told me apparently Donna had barricaded us in
my sister's room because her ex, Fred showed up unexpectedly
looking for her. My mother went to diffuse the situation

(04:20):
and explained that Donna wasn't there, we hadn't heard from her.
Fred went to his car and came out with some
sort of shotgun while my mom fled back inside and
locked the door. Fred let one shot go as she
went in the door, Pepper in my mom's back with
pellets in the front of our house. I guess very

(04:42):
shortly after the police arrived and subdued Fred without a fight.
I'm not sure how long it took for what happened
between her being shot and the police showing up, but
I know we lived right down the block from the
police station, and my mom had called them when she
saw Fred, and before she confronted him. My mom's boyfriend,
who worked the night shift, rushed home and was checking

(05:04):
on my sister and I as my father showed up.
My parents are split. Apparently my mom didn't get to
properly explain what happened in the phone call with my dad,
so all he got from it was boyfriend's shooting near
kids and come over. My dad punched my mom's boyfriend
in the face, knocking him out cold, before being told

(05:26):
that he wasn't the shooter. My dad and her boyfriend
had never had an issue prior and didn't after when
my dad found out that the boyfriend left work and
rushed to check on us first. But yeah, my mom
told me the truth about the night about a year
before she passed away. She died with the pellets still
in her neck and back from that night that caused

(05:48):
chronic pain, but for reasons beyond my understanding, were never treatable.
Fred did the fuck away.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
From my family.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
So today I was going for coffee and I decided
to check out a new cafe that had just opened.
As I go near the door, I am surprised and
happy to see an ex girlfriend of mine from when I.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Was a kid.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
We stare at each other for a second and then
I see she mumble something and then it comes towards me.
I go in for a hug, and after regreat she
just says, do you remember what you've done to me?

Speaker 2 (06:32):
I was baffled.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
We did it many many years ago, and we never
had any issues of any kind, no major fights, no abuse,
no toxicity. As a matter of fact, she hipped me
because I wouldn't commit, but it remained on good terms
a while after, still hanging out until she found a
job abroad and left. At first, I was scared shitless

(06:56):
and I really thought that there was something strange. I
asked her to be more specific, but she wasn't telling.
After a little chit chat, she told me she was
referring to the time that me and a friend cleansed
her house. It came back to me at the time,
we were stupid, edgy, semi gough kids, really into weird

(07:19):
and otherworldly stuff. After she had complained about filling her
house was weird, a friend from her group offered to
do some cleansing ritual, which he did, but we were
basically half drunk. According to her, seven years later, she
talked about this thing with other people and she had
started to hit the fan like he could feel a

(07:41):
presence around her house, drops a temperature.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
All that good stuff.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
She was very vague, but apparently she believes that some
kind of ghost is now possessing her house. Something apparently
unleashed after the thing we did, and her telling her
friends because nothing happened in the year years prior. She
then got back to England, but promptly came back here
to escape from an abusive X. At that point, I

(08:10):
was really nervous and excused myself. She hugged me, saying
now that there's only Christ in her heart and that
we should grab a cup of coffee. This gave me
really weird vibes, like weird Colt stuff. I basically ran
away terrified. Keep in mind we split on good terms.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Very good. She looked after my dog while I was
in England.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
As a masseuse. She took care of my bad back
for months. She even introduced me to her new boyfriend
and we went out for dinner a couple times as
a group. There's no way she could have held animus
against me.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Hell.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
Once abroad, she even offered to help me find a
job in the city that she was currently living in.
This was not a prank done to get back at me.
She once was the light of the room, always laughing
and cracking jokes. The person I found was sad, with
very still eyes, not smiling, not anything like a completely

(09:13):
different person. This experience lasted eleven months on and off,
and honestly, it was easily the worst and longest ordeal.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
With a woman I've ever had.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
It started during a UK residential trip in July twenty
twenty two. We spent one week in the woods and
the next at a community center back home. At the time,
I was a seventeen year old college student UK college
not university, and I was staying in a dorm with
about five other guys. One day at my friend group,

(09:56):
started talking to a girl who mentioned she went to
the same college as most of us. She seemed to
like talking to me, which was the first hint that
she was interested. It became more obvious when at a
silent disco she stayed unusually close to me, and when
I kept moving away, she exclaimed, I was trying to

(10:16):
dance with you, but you kept moving away. That's when
I realized she liked me. She also convinced us to
dance around a campfire while we were waiting for the
other friends, and once she snuck into the doors with us,
which looking back, fell a little off since the dorms
were split by gender. By the end of week two,

(10:37):
I texted asking her she wanted to go out. She
replied almost immediately saying yes, followed by a video of
her asking a voice call. I turned her down to
my social anxiety, but that was another sign of her interest.
Things went smoothly at first, but around the third week
of our relationship, she started accusing me of a Nora

(11:00):
in her text she sent while I was in class.
She claimed my Snapchat avatar made it look like I
read the message. It was about her having a panic
attack and needing my help, but I hadn't seen it
because I was in class at the time. Once I
finished class, I responded and explained, but she didn't believe me.

(11:20):
She even had one of my friends text me telling
me to respond. I tried to explain again, but she
refused to let it go. We met in person and
I calmly explained the situation again, saying that if I
had seen her message, I would have responded. She was
calm and laughed it off a little, but ended with

(11:40):
just respond next time.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
By then, we were.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
Only three weeks into the relationship and I could see
that she didn't trust me. I decided to try one
last time to explain myself, but if she didn't understand,
I would be done. To her credit, she read through
everything I said, and after some back and forth, she
responded with I just wish you hadn't ignore my text.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
That was it. I broke up with her.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
I explained as gently as possible that I didn't see
a future. She couldn't trust me this early on. I
was still willing to be friends, but I couldn't continue
the relationship. Her response was, you're breaking up with me?
Are you serious? She had been the one to blow
things out of proportion, and it was already past the

(12:28):
time I had planned to go to bed. I stayed
up and told me and night replying to her messages.
I don't remember what she said, but some of it
was I guess I'll cry myself to sleep now. I
can't believe I'm being broken up over a text. I
also have video texts, but I don't want to have
to relive the moment, so I won't share it. The

(12:50):
next day, at college, I walked in to find her
sitting at a table where my friends usually sat, something
she never did. As soon as I walked through the
door and she saw me, she wouldn't break eye contact.
It was honestly pretty creepy. I ended up seeing with
my friends later, but whenever she was around, she would
try to argue with me something like You'll never get

(13:13):
a better girlfriend than me. It was clear that she
made everyone uncomfortable. At one point, a girl I only
spoke to a few times from the residential trip even
had to step in and stand up for me. She
and her boyfriend had warned me about her before I
broke up with her, which was part of the reason
why I did. About a week later, she started dating

(13:37):
a guy from my friend group, and it was obvious
she was just doing that to get back at me,
though I honestly didn't care at that point, I was
just relieved to be rid of her. When he broke
up with her a couple weeks later, we sat down
at the table together and he asked, was she this
aggressive with you when you broke up with her?

Speaker 2 (13:58):
I replied yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
He then told me that she had the same exact
reaction to him as she did to me. The climax
of this came when she started arguing with me one
day at college while I was sitting with my.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Friends, not even near her.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
I never insulted her up to that point, but when
she stormed off, I made a comment about her weight,
she turned around and pushed me in the side of
the head. I immediately shouted at her to fuck off.
I reported the incident to the college and she was
given a warning. If I had done that to her,
I'm sure I would have been expelled immediately. I also

(14:37):
got to read her report about me, which was full
of lies about me supposedly being a terrible boyfriend. The
handwrinning was awful, and thankfully the college believed me when
I told him that none of it was true. Afterwards,
she seemed down whenever I was around, and I won't lie.
I couldn't help but smile a little, which only seemed

(14:58):
to annoy her more. Some people in my classes made
jokes about it, but I shut them down quickly, saying,
I bet you wouldn't be laughing.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
If the roles were reversed.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
I later found out that she was also causing trouble
with my other friends in the group and was eventually
kicked out. In June, I learned that she has slept
with a guy from college who is known for being
an extremist during the first week that we were together.
As for me, I'm doing much better now. I'm in
a university studying film, surrounded by a great group of friends,

(15:32):
and I've been in a much happier relationship since July.
One funny thing that happened was she checked my Instagram
story even though she doesn't follow me. It was a
picture of me wearing my current girlfriend's ring, showing how
happy we were. It's not the only time she's stocked
my profile, but I've moved on and I'm in a

(15:53):
much better place now. Un
