Update: 'I did all this work just for it to end up like this?': Guy files for divorce after ex-wife confesses she stalked him for years before they met

Imagine learning that the story of how you met your partner was far from the truth. This dude had been telling his friends and family that he met his then wife seven years ago and knew her as the best friend of his little brother. Little did he know, however, that his wife knew exactly who her husband was when they first met. In fact, she knew who he was over two whole years prior to that "fateful" moment. Perhaps fateful is the wrong word, as it was a highly orchestrated and calculated meet cute.

It turns out she had been stalking this guy during that entire time and had befriended her future husband's little brother with the sole intention of getting more information on him and eventually getting close to him. In this series of updates, which were shared to Reddit's r/BestofRedditorUpdates subreddit, you can track her logic as the truth weighs on her. After her initial post, she got enough feedback telling her to come clean that she decided to finally do so. Her first update unpacked her husband's shocked reaction and his subsequent decision to get some space from her. He decided to stay at a hotel and explained that at the moment, he had no intention to divorce. However, by the time she came back to Reddit with her second update, his entire tune changed.

Keep scrolling below for the full play-by-play, her unhinged final update, and the best reactions from folks in the comments section. When you're finished, check out this post about another divorcée who wanted her money back from her wedding photographer after her marriage fell apart.
