My Girlfriend Admitted She Cheated. "I Needed A Real Man," She Smirked. My Friends Took Her Side...

my girlfriend admitted she cheated I needed a real man she smirked my friends took her side I just smiled took my keys and left this morning my phone blew up with 32 missed calls looking back I should have seen it coming the signs were there scattered like breadcrumbs through the last few months of our relationship but when you've been with someone for 3 years you tend to give them the benefit of the doubt at least that's what I kept telling myself it started with small things Allison began working late more often which wasn't unusual during

busy Seasons but then came the new perfume I didn't recognize clothes I'd never seen before appearing in our closet and her phone suddenly becoming this sacred object that was never more than an arms length away I'm not the jealous type never have been but something felt off the way she'd pull away when I tried to hug her from behind while she was texting how she'd step out to take calls claiming they were work rated the constant girls nights with people whose names I'd never heard before last Tuesday I was folding laundry when her phone lit

up on the coffee table a message preview from someone named Jay popped up miss you already last night was the rest was cut off but my stomach dropped I didn't want to be that guy who snoops through his girlfriend's phone but the universe seemed to be screaming at me to wake up when she got home that night I decided to be direct she was in the kitchen making herself a smoothie like nothing was wrong the sound of the blender filled our apartment as I leaned against the door frame watching her who's Jay I asked when

she finally turned it off the change in her posture was instant her shoulders tensed but then she did something I wasn't expecting she smiled not her usual warm smile but something cold and almost triumphant wondering when you'd finally catch on Michael she said taking a sip from her glass Jay's my boss and yes I've been sleeping with him for the past two months the Casual way she said it felt like a slap no guilt no shame just Pride I needed a real man she continued smirking someone who knows what he wants and goes for it

not someone who spends his weekends playing video games with Jacob and watching stupid movies I stood there processing her words three years together and this was how she really saw me through the shock I felt something else Rising not anger but a strange sense of clarity does Chloe know I asked thinking of our mutual friend who'd introduced us oh she's known for weeks Allison laughed most of our friends know they understand Jay can actually provide a future not just dreams and excuses that hit harder than the cheating admission these people we'd shared birthdays holidays and

countless dinners with they'd all been watching in this happen probably laughing behind my back I pulled out my phone and opened my group chat with Jacob and Khloe is this true you all knew Jacob's response came quickly bro you're great but Allison deserves someone more established don't take it personally kloe chimed in we didn't want to hurt you but maybe this is the wakeup call you need I looked up from my phone to find Allison watching me that same smirk still playing on her lips she was waiting for the explosion the drama the scene she

could tell everyone about later poor immature Michael losing his cool instead I smiled a real genuine smile that seemed to catch her off guard without a word I walked to our bedroom pulled out my go bag always kept one packed for weekend trips grabbed my laptop and my keys when I passed through the kitchen again Allison was staring her smirk faltering slightly where are you going she demanded out I replied simply and Allison keep the apartment I'm sure Jay can help with the rent I heard her start to say something as I closed the door

behind me but I didn't stop to listen my phone was already buzzing with messages probably from our so-called friends trying to explain themselves as I drove away I turned my phone off and felt something I didn't expect relief sometimes losing everything shows you exactly what you never had in the first place I had no idea where I was going but for the first time in months I felt like I was heading in the right direction update first thanks for all the support on my last post never expected it to blow up like that a lot

has happened in the past week and honestly I'm still processing everything I've been staying at this small motel on the outskirts of town not the most glamorous place but it's clean and the owner an older guy who introduced himself as Pete seems decent he even knocked $20 off the weekly rate when he heard my story turned my phone back on after 2 days of Silence 32 Miss calls 47 text messages most from Allison some from Jacob and Khloe and a few from numbers I didn't recognize but what really caught my attention was the notification Storm

from social media Allison had been busy really busy her Instagram story painted a picture II recognized apparently I was a controlling jealous boyfriend who monitored her every move according to her posts I emotionally manipulated her for years isolated her from friends and threw a violent tantrum when she finally stood up for herself each post had hundreds of sympathetic comments including ones from people I thought were my friends the Crown Jewel a tearful video where she claimed I had financially abused her by making her split all our bills 50 50ths while I hoarded my money Rich

considering she earned more than me and insisted on that Arrangement herself then came the text from Gemma a co-worker I've known for years hey you might want to check your email something's going around the office about you sure enough there was a companywide email about creating a safe workplace environment with a thinly veiled reference to recent concerning behaviors from certain employees no names mentioned but the timing wasn't subtle I should have been angry maybe I should have fought back posted my side of the story instead I just felt curious how far would she take this

pretty far as it turns out yesterday I stopped by our local coffee shop the one place I figured would be safe since Allison hated their coffee wrong the Barista who' always been friendly gave me this look like I was something stuck to her shoe later found out Allison had become a regular there sharing her Survival Story with anyone who'd listen but here's where it gets interesting while picking up some clothes from Storage I ran into Juliana Allison's supposed best friend she looked nervous glancing around like she was afraid of being seen talking to me you

need to be careful she whispered Jay isn't just her boss his wife she's connected like really connected and Allison's been telling her you're unstable dangerous even why are you telling me this Juliana's eyes darted around again because this isn't the first time before you there was another guy at work Allison and Jay they did the same thing to him he ended up leaving town that conversation changed everything I spent the night digging legal records social media anything I could find turns out the previous guy existed Mark something disappeared completely from from social media around the

time Allison started at the company this morning I got a call from our landlord Allison tried to remove my name from the lease claiming I'd abandon the property when that didn't work she told him I'd been threatening her he called to warn me turned out his sister went through something similar years ago but here's the real kicker while all this was happening I got a message request on Instagram from an account I didn't recognize the profile picture was of a woman in her 40s elegant wearing expensive jewelry the message was simple I believe we need

to talk about my husband and your girlfriend coffee tomorrow it was signed Mrs J I'm meeting her in an hour something tells me Allison's real man story is about to get a lot more complicated the funny thing is watching Allison spin this elaborate Web of Lies seeing our friends choose sides based on nothing but her word it's actually liberating every nasty post every fake tear every manipulated story just confirms what I already knew I'm not losing anything worth keeping update two sorry for the delayed update these past two weeks have been WI that coffee meeting

with Mrs J Game Changer turns out she's been Gathering evidence for months not just about Allison and her husband but about a whole pattern of behavior at the company remember how Juliana mentioned the guy who left town he wasn't the first Mrs Jay had documented at least three similar situations over the past 5 years young employees getting involved with her husband then helping to push out anyone who might expose them the difference this time Mrs Jay was done playing quiet she had texts emails expense reports even security footage from the company parking garage but she

wanted one final piece public exposure that's where the annual company party came in I wasn't planning to attend why would I but Mrs Jay had other ideas sometimes she told me the best revenge is just letting people show their true colors the party was at this fancy hotel downtown I arrived late dressed better than I ever had for these things the looks when I walked in Priceless Allison nearly dropped her drink Jay's face went from red to White so fast I thought he might pass out out but here's the beautiful part I didn't have to

do anything Chloe approached first clearly Tipsy you've got some nerve showing up here she slurred loud enough for nearby groups to hear after everything you put Allison through I just smiled everything I put her through that's interesting tell me more that's when Gemma stepped in remember her my coworker turns out she'd been quietly collecting her own evidence screenshots of Allison bragging about her Conquest in company chat groups recordings of her planning how to spin the story with J actually Gemma announced I think we'd all like to hear the real story the next hour was like

watching Domino's fall Mrs Jay timing her entrance perfectly tablet in hand the projector that accidentally started playing a slideshow of incriminating messages and photos Allison's increasingly desperate attempts to maintain control of her narrative but the real show came from Jacob good old bros before hoes except when the ho might Advance my career Jacob he'd been filming everything on his phone planning to show it to Jay later prove his loyalty or something instead he managed to capture Allison's complete meltdown you think you're so clever she screamed at me you and that bitter old woman trying to

ruin everything I've built Jay loves me we're going to have a life together that's when Mrs Jay decided to share the cherry on top divorce papers already filed turns out Jay had been promising Allison the same future he'd promised those other employees same script different actress the best part through all of this I barely said a word just watched his years of manipulation and lies unraveled in real time Juliana who'd been quiet all evening finally spoke up I helped her she admitted addressing the now silent room I helped her destroy that other guy's reputation I

can't I can't do it again by midnight the party was effectively over Allison had stormed out mascara streaking down her face Jay was locked in his office with HR and those friends who'd been so quick to believe her stories they couldn't look me in the eye as I was leaving Mrs Jay caught my arm thank you she said for being the one who didn't run I drove home to my motel room feeling strangely peaceful Pete was still up watching late night TV in the office he took one look at my face and grinned good night

you could say that this morning my phone's been blowing up again different tone this time apologies explanations people claiming they never really believed Allison's stories even got a message from Mark the guy who left town apparently he's been following everything through mutual connections sometimes Karma doesn't need our help it just needs an audience final update well this is it the final chapter of this Saga and trust me it's been a hell of a ride you might want to grab some popcorn for this one first off the aftermath of the company party hit harder than anyone

expected within 48 Hours both Jay and Allison were asked to resign but that was just the beginning remember those documents Mrs Jay had collected turns out there was more much more every expense report Jay had falsified to cover his business dinners with Allison every email where they plotted against other employees every manipulated performance review she handed it to the board of directors the company's legal team moved fast really fast they were less concerned about the Affairs and more worried about the pattern of workplace harassment and financial misconduct both Jay and Allison are now facing civil

lawsuits but here's where it gets interesting remember Mark the guy who left town he came back and he brought receipts literal and figurative turns out he documented everything before he left including the smear campaign Allison and Jay ran against him he just hadn't known what to do with it all until now Mrs J introduced him to her lawyer 3 days later he filed his own lawsuit then something beautiful happened other former employees started coming forward each with their own stories their own evidence what started as one Scandal quickly became an avalanche Allison tried to get

ahead of it she posted a tearful video claiming she was the real victim manipulated by Jay and now being persecuted that's when Juliana finally grew a spine she posted the screenshots of their private chats the ones where Allison bragged about her conquests and planned how to destroy people's reputations the ones where she mocked her victims last week Allison showed up at my motel Pete the owner called me at work that girl you told me about she's making a scene in the parking lot I took my time driving back found her sitting on the hood of

my car mascara streak clutching a manila envelope I have dirt on everyone she said trying to sound threatening despite her shaking voice if you don't help me stop this I'll release it all I just laughed go ahead burn every bridge you have left see how that works out she threw the envelope at me in side were photos screenshots private messages ammunition she'd collected over years of manipulating people her insurance policy I took pictures of every single page while she watched then handed it back to her release whatever you want but first look at where your

previous schemes got you the thing about people like Allison they can't stand when their weapons are turned against them she tore up the envelope right there in the parking lot screaming about how we'd all regret this that tantrum someone recorded it it was all over social media within hours the final blow came yesterday Mrs Jay's divorce was finalized and guess what she got everything the house the cars most of their assets Jay's golden Parachute from the company gone to pay legal fees his reputation destroyed his future career prospects let's just say Google is not his

friend anymore as for Allison last I heard she's moving back in with her parents in another state her social media's gone dark those friends who sided with her they're dealing with their own Fallout turns out backing the wrong horse has consequence es Jacob tried to apologize yesterday sent this long message about how he should have been a better friend I just replied with a screenshot of his old messages supporting Allison he blocked me coward Khloe's doing damage control too she's worried those screenshots Allison kept might affect her own career I almost feel bad almost me

I just signed a lease on a new apartment got a promotion at work funny how removing toxic people improves everything and yeah I'm seeing someone new taking it slow doing it right the best Revenge isn't plotting or scheming it's living well and letting people destroy themselves but I won't lie watching it all burn has been pretty satisfying this will be my last update thanks for coming along for the ride Reddit remember Karma doesn't need your help sometimes you just need to step back and let people show their true colors
