t of his family.
- The love of my life is your classic alpha male: very intelligent, strong-willed, and strong-minded.
A few weeks ago, I learned that he has a brain disease that the doctors can’t quite figure out. He’ll likely die before he turns 25.
- My wife’s grandma found out she was adopted when she gave birth to my mother-in-law. She asked the doctor about a medical condition her mom had, and whether the baby inherited it. He casually told her, “You can’t inherit from an adoptive mother.” And that’s how she found out, at the age of 28.
- My girlfriend was dating this dashing multi-millionaire. He flew her around the world and showered her with gifts. It turns out he was an international fugitive wanted by Interpol.
- My grandma and her boyfriend have been together for as long as I can possibly remember. I’m 20 years into life and my mom let it slip that my grandma is the other woman! I had no idea! My grandma’s boyfriend is married. I’m in shock.
- I found out that Dad was gay. Apparently, my mother knew about it the whole time and told him that the marriage would only work if he remained straight. After about 25 years of no “incidents,” Dad finally gave in and began seeing guys. My parents are now divorced.
- I found out that the man I called Grandpa my entire life wasn’t my biological grandpa after all. My mom came from her mom’s first marriage, so he was technically my step-grandpa. It wasn’t until his funeral that I found all this out.
My grandma pulled out a picture of her first husband, and I swear, he and I could be twins.
- A very close coworker from 2004 to 2008, who I used as a reference, pled guilty to stealing 1.03 million dollars from our mutual employer. This was very shocking, as I am an insurance fraud investigator with 20 years of experience. I did not see anything suspicious in this person. I thought he was the best property insurance guy, best husband, and best father I had ever known. I totally missed the boat on this one.
