Boyfriend sent me a video

OP, why does the title say "Boyfriend sent me a video" but the first line says he's not your boyfriend?

OP, ignore the stupid replies. I think your post was hard to understand for some. Basically he sent you a video saying he was woken by his son singing at 6am? It was light outside so I clearly wasn’t 6am as it’s dark at 6am. He’s using his son waling him up early as an excuse not to see you?

Your gut is telling you he is lying and making up excuses. Your gut is probably right…..it usually is. He doesn’t want to see you today.

Just end it and move on. The whole thing is bonkers and life is too short.

I went to know what else he did that was so wrong

tho sounds like he has had a very lucky escape

its all sounds nuts and unhealthy, but black and white and alter and low light can look brighter against a darker interior. It was light when I woke at 6.30 this morning.

Quite. The people pandering to the OP's bizarre behaviour are not the nicest

oh the irony 😂

I would have only one thing to say to your boyfriend: RUN.

Well maybe it wasnt exactly 6am? I sometimes say things like, I have been up since 5am, when in fact it was 5.45. But still in the 5am timezone, so might as well be 5am in my book.
I wouldn't exprct anyone to pick apart the exact time like that.
It could bave been 6.50am, his room might be facing the rising sun.
You are way over thinking it.

there was the occasional bare arse walking past the window
I can only presume because they were a lot higher up and a good distance away the thought nobody could see in

Mine told me I needed a shit once, after 20 minutes on the bog turns out it was only a stuck fart.

Sounds like he was full of bullshit OP. Well done you for getting rid.

OP you really have to ask why peeps are puzzled by this aibu. It's really obvious to the rest of us as the above quote says.

I think go with your gut OP.

I think it tells us things.

Goodness, MN has some deeply unpleasant people coming on it in the small hours. This thread features a few.

If he’s got an iPhone it should tell you the day, time, phone and camera it was taken on.

Unless he used Snapchat, I don’t think it does then. If he used his main camera app, it’ll have that information.

Quite why you’d be bothered enough to check is beyond me, but it does do it.

Not necessarily. As I say, it depends. Worth a go though? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Dependent on what sorts of phones you each have, you could try saving the video to your camera roll and checking the time/date stamp from there. I have in the past confirmed someone was full of shit via this method. Regardless, sounds like you’re well rid. Best of luck X

Now this would require you to do some critical thinking now, but have you considered not everybody minds natural light and doesn't need or want curtains or blinds?

It was bright here (south west) at 6:20 if that's any help @sillyme1234? Good half hour before the MetOffice says sunrise was.

You don't believe him though and there's clearly other things going on so not really sure why you asked.

Black and white video - you can't tell if it's natural light or a streetlight.
If the camera is good quality, it will capture low light as good, strong light too.

I think you may have trust issues, perhaps at times with good reason, I don't know . Please work on yourself before starting relationships.

I definitely wouldn’t tell him I’d gone Miss Marple on light levels and know he’s lying. I’d just decide whether to see him again or not.

If I were you and had concluded that the video couldn’t have been taken at 6am (with which I agree at this time of year), I would then conclude that he doesn’t want to see you today for whatever reason and rather than give you the real reason, he’s made this up as the reason. You can decide what you do with that.

I am awake at 6 a.m. It's bright. But why are you thinking about this? It's a video of his son. You sound a bit controlling OP.

Ah, just saw your post saying there's no street light. It could have been a vehicle or anything really. I get all sorts of weird and wonderful shadows and random lights across my walls at night. If it's in the right position, even the moon can change the look of my room.
