28. EVERYTHING YOU SAY WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU
I showed up at the police station to bail my boyfriend out. I had no idea why he was locked up, but as I was signing bail forms, I overheard the conversation behind me. The bondsman was talking to a woman, and he asked her how she knew my boyfriend. Her response shook me to my core. Without any hesitation, she said they were dating.
I slowly turned around, thinking I must have misheard. I asked her who she was and she recognized me. She said it was nice to meet me, which was surprising as I didn’t know who she was.
I found out my boyfriend had an ongoing relationship with another woman, but that’s not even the worst part—it turns out that she is 20 years my junior. The night before, she had put a restraining order on him, which he violated the next morning, hence the arrest.
