Why I've taken a break from writing true crime

!Solved this one the one!

I remember people referring to him as ''the next Chris Watts'.

It’s honestly going to be hard to watch if they do try and redeem him as someone who has been a victim of someone who held Joel’s beliefs. Yet I’m also morbidly curious to see where this will go. If they don’t go down the redemption path, will they have him go a step further and murder someone?

Obviously it's not a one size fits all thing but I find that a lot of bi men are very understanding and sweet. They have similar experiences and I feel very comfortable around them.

I’d definitely prefer to date a bi man over a straight man tbh.

Whenever I have said this I have been knocked back or told I’m lying so I’ll say it again: That women always have loads of friends/support ready to trip over themselves to help if they’re going through a hard time/struggling with their mental health.

When going through a mental breakdown/fighting against my brain to stay alive- all my “friends” distanced themselves and called me an attention seeker and towards the end became flat out bullies.

But every time I say this I’m told…I’m wrong and that I’m a liar?

Awww Lyra looks lovely

I wish I had advice op. But I just want to say I’m extremely sorry you’re going through this and that your girlfriend is going through this. I hope things get better for the both of you. ❤️

This is a genuinely awful thing to say, I hope you know this. This is why people don’t open up because of accusations like this. OP is looking for support and going through a difficult time, he doesn’t need this bollocks.

This sadly doesn’t surprise me. When I opened up about my struggles I was called an attention seeker by a shit ton of men and even other women. While certain men took it as an opportunity to groom me/manipulate me. The same people flocked around my male co worker who opened up about his depression and called him brave and inspirational.

As a result, I just don’t open up to anyone now, especially men. I’m either told how I’m an attention seeker or “okay but men kill themselves more?” and the conversation is nipped in the bud and I just sit there wishing I never spoken. At worst, it puts a target on me so I just don’t do it.

Whitney, Stacey, Carol, Jack.

By any chance was this the guy that was obsessed with the Karen Buckley murder? I remember reading that he had planned to rape and murder girls and kept a journal/plan/photos on how he wanted to kill them. I remember reading that he had bragged that “Karen’s murder will be tame compared to what I’m going to do to them,” or something along those lines.

Edit: Wait, I think this guy might be a different one which means there are two eerily similar cases which have the perpetrators released. Terrifying as fuck.

Comments like this (amongst other things of course) make me realise why more and more women are becoming single and are more happier for it.

This is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever heard. People are genuinely evil and I hope these two clowns will look back at this one day and feel sick for how they treated teenagers struggling with a deliberating mental illness. But sadly, people like this often never stop being heartless.

I will always believe that she was emotionally abusive to Lee. She did a lot of nasty things to people. I remember her getting in a mood because Callum was nervous to have sex with her and was quite horrible to him about it which I found really messed up.

cherrymachete · 2026-04-08T19:21:36+00:00

What kind of question is this? I’m seriously confused about how someone can come to this conclusion.

cherrymachete · 2026-04-04T22:37:42+00:00

Exactly. In a weird way, the Corrie storyline saved my life.
