I’m about halfway through the series, starting on part 27 now.
Basically the husband is constantly lying but she was too naive to realize it.
Funny how when you hear someone else’s story it is SO obvious what is going on and the solution is obvious to open your eyes and discover the truth and divorce him. But when I was in my marriage I was just as blind.
Love is blind and as easy as it is to see the truth in other marriages it is just as easy to stay blind in your own marriage because you just want so badly to believe the fairy tale that you have a loving loyal honest husband.
Really a very relatable story and she tells it very well with lots of detail.

I’ve been binge watching and am on Part 40 now! The series is 50 Parts total.
It’s actually really very helpful to see this play out to someone else in so much detail. As a spectator it is so easy to see that he was conning her. But I know from my own experience that when you’re in it and it’s happening to you it’s almost impossible to shift your mindset to see the truth because you want to believe the lies so badly.

I just finished the 500 minutes of “Who TF Did I Marry” and I am filled with admiration and awe over this woman’s courage and honesty in telling a horrific and often heart-wrenching, self-flagellating story. I am hurting for her for all the negativity and hate that is being thrown her way. Unless you have lived with a pathological – or even compulsive – liar with narcissistic and/or sociopathic tendencies, there is no way you can speak to her truth. Until you have lived the confusion and self doubt and cognitive dissonance, you have NO right to doubt this story. I, for one, believe her 100%. I have felt the feeling she described of “something is just not right”, and the immediate self-denial of “oh I am imagining things.” That is very real. I also completely understand her admission of not trusting anyone, ever. I am there, too. I know what she means about not being the same woman she was before she met him. I am there, too. That person, in retrospect, seems silly and naive and gullible — and I will NEVER be that person again. I love that she gives her reason for telling this story – her wish to help even one person NOT be taken in. I think a lot of us on this site feel the same way — we share to help others see the truth, hopefully before they are caught in the web of these evil, evil people. Blessings to you all.

Emilie yes it’s all so recognizable. I know she has received criticism but I think actually the majority of reactions have been positive from women who have been with other lying cheating conning men and they recognize her story.
It actually makes me think that narcissists and sociopaths are WAY more common than people think. I have heard the estimate is maybe 5% of the population but I suspect it is much higher. What if these narcs are actually very common? Sadly it wouldn’t even surprise me if a third of the population has these disorders.

Here is another article about it with some video clips. It has gone completely viral and the story is everywhere now. I just saw her on CNN yesterday too. Her story struck a HUGE chord with so many people who have gone through a similar relationship.

I did not mean to imply that most people hated on her – just the opposite – the amount of support and love she has received is phenomenal. I just hate haters…having been on the receiving end of some vicious rumors, I know how even one such remark can kill your spirit. I am delighted she is getting such positive attention from talk shows and articles — stories like this are so often hidden in the shadows, mostly because of the shame and fear of ridicule of the victim. I believe her viral tik-tok is going to open a LOT of eyes, and hopefully women or men caught in such situations will recognize the danger and get out. I wonder what her lying ex is doing now – probably has moved on to another victim. Or two.

This is another talk show with Reesa Teesa as a guest and Dr Ramani a psychologist expert on narcissism explaining why we should not be ashamed that we were conned and fell for the lies. It’s because we just wanted to love and be loved.
