Redditor Reveals Truth About Why She Rejected The Boy Who Invited Her To Prom 10 Years Ago, Causing Him To Get Disowned By Parents
The boy's friends and family didn't know anything about his behavior.
Meet OP, a now 27-year-old who's whisking us back to the days of youth and reckoning in the hallowed halls of a UK school. Amidst the twilight of her senior year, she found herself entwined in a tale of infatuation, rejection, and revelations.
Let's break it down: In this corner, we have a boy, known for his massive crush on OP. But this isn't your run-of-the-mill crush – we're talking years of silent admiration.
This boy, a mix of roses and thorns, was both enamored and a bully. He swung between dishing out cruel words and bizarre actions – cutting strands of hair, tracking down her house, and engaging in a cascade of torment.
As fate would have it, on the brink of their graduation, he decided to mount a grand gesture, a "promposal" if you will, to win OP's heart. The stage was set, the signs unfurled, and the proposal was met with an unequivocal rejection. A chapter, seemingly closed. Except, not quite.
Years later, our story takes an unexpected twist. OP crosses paths with an old friend of her erstwhile admirer. This friend, a bearer of tidings from the past, reveals a tale of post-graduation woes.
The boy, jilted by rejection, plunged into the depths of depression, nursing a broken heart. And here's where the saga takes a turn – this friend, unaware of the torment inflicted on OP, castigates her for perceived pettiness.
And then, the floodgates open. OP, done with silence and tired of the whispers, decides to lay it all bare. The truth, like a phoenix from the ashes, emerges.
A truth that reveals the torment, the borderline stalking, and the suppression of these deeds by the circle of friends. The friend, confronted with this startling revelation, leaves the scene in a huff.
In the aftermath, the friend group fractures. Those who were in the dark about the extent of the torment express anger and betrayal, while others are miffed at OP for unraveling the tapestry of secrets.
The question that hangs in the air is whether OP did the right thing by revealing the truth.

Whether or not OP was in the wrong for revealing the truth is a matter of perspective. What's clear is that the impact of actions isn't always easily predictable.
