Video Game Girlfriend
An ex-co-worker and I became pretty good work friends. We’re video game nerds, so I texted him about it after work hours. Then, I found out his wife was the super jealous type.
Not only did she accuse him of cheating on her with me, but she also took her paranoia to the next level—she came to the office once just to look at me. It was so weird. The next day, he told me they’d fought because apparently, I had slept with him.
They fought so much about me that I stopped texting him after work hours; and during work hours, I only texted him about work. It got to the point where context didn’t matter–she was mad just at the mere fact that I was texting him. I tried to be friends with her to help ease her suspicions.
It didn’t help. I didn’t do anything wrong. He didn’t do anything wrong. She’s just had major trust issues and always been that way, so he doesn’t have many friends. He wanted to divorce her but stayed for the children. Story credit: Reddit / (Thatgrrrl117)
