Known by the alias @postpartumpsycho, a mom on TikTok evoked one of her past love affairs. At 17, the young woman hadn’t noticed an important detail about her boyfriend for three months…
It was a childhood mistake…in a way! Blinded by her boyfriend, the content creator, known by the alias @postpartumpsycho, reverted to one of her first love stories.
At 17, madly in love with her mate, she admitted it had taken her more than three months to learn about him one important detail of his body. An anecdote that surprised his community.
Three months before understanding
It’s usually parenting advice, which she distils into her account, which has more than 3,700 subscribers. But in one of her latest TikTok videos, the young mom returned to one of her biggest sentimental “failures.” “If you ever thought you didn’t know anything about your boyfriend, let me tell you about the time I dated a guy for three months before I found out he didn’t know anything.” “He had no legs,” she said in the introduction.
Inseparable lovers
At that time she was only 17 years old. She meets this boy at a rodeo. “I saw him across the street and I was like, ‘He’s a big, beautiful man and I need him,'” she explained. They exchange numbers and three weeks later are madly in love. “We were inseparable, we saw each other every day. We were young lovers,” she revealed. After a while, “strange things” happen.
Always in a tracksuit
She notices that her boyfriend always wears sweatpants no matter what the temperature. “I said, ‘What an odd choice,’ but I didn’t tell him,” she commented. One day, however, she finally noticed his approach. “One day he had his arm around me and was limping. I asked him why,” she said. He replies that it’s an easy one knee injury. An explanation that seemed logical to him at the time.
A categorical rejection
Some time later she invites him to one of her basketball games. “He told me: ‘You have absolutely no right to come to my games'”. Fascinated, she asks him for an explanation. “I told him that even if it’s the worst team, he can’t be the worst,” she noted. However, her boyfriend doesn’t change his mind and still refuses her presence. She doesn’t insist and respects his decision.
A revealing photo
“We were together for three months. We were in love, we saw each other every day,” she explained. Eventually, they pose for a photo one night over dinner while posing next to each other. “This photo haunts me. I post it on Facebook and the more I look at it, the more I tell myself, “I think I’ve been conned,” she continued. She shows this photo to her friends and tells them, “I think my friend may only have one leg.”
A touchy subject
However, everyone wonders why he would hide such information from her. She is reluctant to ask him the question directly, not knowing how to broach the subject. For weeks she tried in vain to find out. “Everything changed a week or two before the ball,” she said. “We were going to prom, then we had a house party after that where we had to go to a lake so he had to wear a bathing suit,” she said. Her boyfriend takes her to a park to talk to her.
Affected by polio
” He told me ” I have polio “. I replied that I had suspected it for a few weeks and that he was making it very strange because he hadn’t told me about it before.” Disappointed that he kept the secret for three months, she thinks ” stupid” because she couldn’t uncover his secret sooner. “We stayed together for six months and then I went to college and ruined everything,” she concluded.
Similar experiences
In the comments, her followers were surprised and delighted by her honesty, with her video garnering over 2.3 million views. “Why didn’t you notice that??? asked a first person. ” I’m amazed ! a second noted. Others shared stories similar to this follower, who explained, “I married a man before I realized he was missing a thumb… I never asked for it until I was pregnant”.
