Some secrets stay hidden for months, years, or even decades before coming to light. When they are revealed, they can change our lives completely. Even if time makes it easier to deal with, the impact is hard to forget. Here are some stories that share shocking truths that will leave you in disbelief.

The Story:

I was on my first date with her at a nice restaurant. Everything was going well, but our waiter was acting weird. He kept coming to our table and making eye contact. When she went to the bathroom, he slipped me a note that said, “Be careful!!!” I didn’t think much of it, and we started dating.

Eight months later, while driving near that restaurant, I saw her with that same waiter, kissing in the middle of the street. My world fell apart when I found out she had been lying to me the whole time. This waiter had been her boyfriend for seven years, and they were on a break when she took me to the restaurant to make him jealous. I realized they had gotten back together, which is why she was kissing him. I had been living a lie for all those months.
