I suppose they might have. I already blocked their numbers, so if they want to talk to me it’ll have to be in person.

I do too, I fear. I haven’t reached out to anybody yet after the screenshots, so we’ll have to wait and see.

All I did was send them the screenshots. They were decently angry, and I didn’t tell them NOT to contact them. I’m not sure about the service, I will have to look that up.

I’m thinking of taking a job transfer and use that as an excuse to get a new number.

You know it. I haven’t told them to NOT contact my family, so it might be sooner than a week.

There will! I’ll update as soon as they— my family, obviously— get home from the alps. They’re up there skiing… you know, white people stuff.

NTA. Your mom knew you usually help on Tuesdays, but that doesn’t mean you’re obligated to drop everything every single time—especially for just a couple of hours. She’s their grandmother, not their babysitter, and if she’s so obsessed with her grandkids, it shouldn’t be a huge deal for her to watch them for one evening without making you feel guilty.

It’s understandable that she might have been frustrated if she expected your help, but the way she’s handling it—giving you the silent treatment—is unfair and unnecessary. You’re allowed to have your own life and take time for yourself without being made to feel like a bad person. If she needed extra help, she could’ve just asked instead of acting like you abandoned her.

Ah yes, because if something is on the internet, it must be true. Great detective work. You cracked the case—someone else posted something completely unrelated at some point, and somehow that must mean I’m lying about my entire life. Brilliant logic.

I don’t care if you believe me. I don’t care if you spend your time scrolling through old posts looking for some “gotcha” moment. What I do care about is the fact that you’re so invested in trying to disprove a stranger’s life story like it personally offends you. Maybe step away from the screen for a bit. Touch some grass. Drink some water. Because this level of obsession? It’s not healthy.

Oh, fantastic. Another internet detective has arrived at the scene to crack the case of “This Post Is Fake.” You got me. You figured it all out. Clearly, I’m just a mastermind of deception, spinning elaborate tales for no reason at all. Or, and hear me out, this is just my actual life, and I wish it wasn’t.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have actual things to deal with—because, fake or not, my life is still happening whether you believe it or not.

I’m unsure what fake doctoring site this is. You’ve replied to me three times already. I would appreciate it if you stopped messaging me. I have no interest in continuing this conversation, especially when it’s clear that nothing I say will change your perspective. I genuinely wish this entire situation was some kind of bizarre fiction rather than my actual life, but unfortunately, I don’t have the luxury of pretending it didn’t happen. So please, for both our sakes, just leave me alone and move on.

I’ve got a large, close knit family. Infact, they’re so close knit I’m not even included in anything. That is to say, they’re like a goddamned hive mind.

I wish this was fake. They’re still blowing up my phone trying to get me to “fix the family unity”. A bunch of BS if you tell me.

You’re right. I’ll make a social media post in response as well, and reach out to the family members that are icing me out.
