My brother has been involved in an online relationship (if you want to call it that) with a girl from Canada for over 3 years now. They have never met, although she says she has been down here to Montana three times. Creepy right? Well it gets creepier. Everyone (except him) has a boat load of questions as to who she really is, due to the huge pile of BS that she feeds him everyday. TBH, my whole family is getting quite worried because he is not usually so gullible. Last night my mom asked a question on Yahoo questions pertaining to this situation, not realizing that she is in her Yahoo contacts. So now its out in the open, but the reaction from both her and my brother leads us to question her identity even more. Instead of defending herself, she is acting like her feelings are hurt, and now she won't talk to my mom. I don't know exactly what kind of help I'm asking for, but if anyone has any experience/advice/opinions, please help a fellow redditor out. If needed I will list some (if possible all) of the stories that makes us question her existence. If nothing else, her story of getting injured on a 4 wheeler, getting emergency brain surgery, having the doctor accidentally cut her leg with the bone saw, which lead another doctor to punch that doctor in the face (they both still have their jobs), the hero doctor chatted with my brother on AIM right after surgery, and she was on facebook 2 hours later talking about it, makes it blatantly apparent she is a compulsive liar. And this is just one of the many works of fiction not even a soap opera would dare dream up. We are 99.99% sure we've found the imposter on facebook, as she has the same name, lives in the town that she has my brother mail to (which is a totally seperate province than she claims to live in) and apparently she wears a size 9 ring. Yes he bought her an engagement ring. And any girl would know that a size 9 would be way too big for a 5'3'' 98 pound petite darling that she says she is. I know the question is if she's trolling him, (I myself have no doubts), but how do I go about exposing her? Or do I just let him do his thing and not get involved? Any help would be immensely appreciated. This has just gone too far!
UPDATE: A few familiy members and myself are taking him over to their house later today, (if all goes well) to sit his arse down and show him every strand of evidence that he is choosing to overlook. If he chooses to continue this tomfoolery, then I will be posting the name of this girl so you redditors can find the life story of this chick and out her once and for all. Thank you all for your input, you're all very helpful. Except that one guy. You know who you are. UPDATE: Well everybody, we were fucking right! And he took it like a goddamn champ. Surprisingly, he is less devastated than we all thought he would be. Her name is Chelsea Ryan, and she does live in Digby, Novia Scotia. Oh did I just post her real name? Oopsies! For over 3 years she was stealing facebook pictures from a canadian model, and from other unsuspecting facebookers to make up to 60 profiles for friends that don't exist. It was quite the scheme that she got my whole family (me, not so much) to fall for. My brother (jdubya4211) will be able to answer some questions for anyone who is curious. He's doing an IAmA here on reddit, and don't be dicks guys.http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/o6x62/iama_guy_who_found_out_his_internet_fiance_of/ This story is so twisted it's hard to keep up. In a nutshell, my cousin sat him down (the one who did the most extensive research) showed him the profile of the real girl, the profile of the model, and showed him how all the profiles of her friends had the same IP address. Not wanting to believe it, he messaged her right away and she confessed instantly, saying she could "explain". Supposedly, she was taking everything he said and sent in the mail, and was re-routing it to another girl who thought she was dating my brother. Bullsheeeit! I see a dateline special coming shortly in our future.
