Who's lying?

Sorry I hate this way of writing but!
Person 1 and person 2 have a child together. Terrible relationship, break up after person 2 leaves person 1 for someone else. That fizzles out. They hook up.
Person 2 meets new gf. Person 1 is angry because she is left to one side again. Two years later person 2 is having another baby. Person 1 tells someone (person 3, vague friends with person 2) that they'd been sleeping with person 2 off and on for the whole two years.
Person 1 has always been resentful and petty but usually honest. They have texts to prove the affair. Could texts be fabricated? Person 2 was caught with topless photos of person 1 which he replied to saying 'nice'. I know who I believe.

Who's lying?

I think person 2 is lying

Very hard to follow and seems like way too much drama! Would walk away and have nothing to do with the situation.

Player001 · 17/02/2022 00:38

Dot points and actual but made up names would be easier to follow but, if i've got the gist of it.... Assuming Person 2 is denying everything it sounds like they are lying and has never been trustworthy.

This! Whichever letter of the alphabet you are the entire situation is a clusterfuck so walk away now while you can still (hopefully) retain your dignity and sanity.

Person 2 is a complete scumbag, call him Boris to make things easier.

Sure texts can be fabricated but it seems much, much, much more likely that person 2 is lying.

autienotnaughty · 17/02/2022 04:46

So either person 1 has fabricated this and it's not true or person 2 is cheating. Why would person 1 lie and fabricate texts? Why did person 2 have topless photos of person 1?

Shiteshow100 · 17/02/2022 04:57

Person 1 and 3 need to give their head a shake 😂😂😂. Hope he has a massive schlong that jizzes cupcakes and sparkles??!

SD1978 · 17/02/2022 05:00

Leave your boyfriend. Your kid will be better off.

LewI89 · 17/02/2022 05:12

Why would person 2 reply to topless pic saying "nice" if there's nothing between them? Surely if you've split and you're in a relationship with someone new, you'd tell them to kindly eff off? What is wrong with some people? Hmm

LoisLane66 · 17/02/2022 05:27

I gather that person 1 is female and person 2 is male. Why would the male, when shown the topless photo of the female, say 'nice' as he would already know what she looked like and it might even have been taken when he and she were together. Of course either if them could be gay, bi or trans, child could have been adopted by 1&2 or conceived in any one of a number of ways. Might have been a trans man still with a womb. The pregnancy announcement likewise.

AlDanvers · 17/02/2022 05:34

So person 2 broke up with his partner. But continued to sleep with the ex . His newer partner is pregnant. And now is the time the ex decides to confess.

If the ex has proof then obviously you would believe her. Though screen shots of messages can be fabricated.

But neither 1 or 2 are not decent people and the poor newer partner has been dragged into their bullshit and now left holding the baby.

And all this drama will impact both children. 1 & 2 need to grow up.

amandamirandapanda · 17/02/2022 05:41

Person 6 1/2 is lying, but the motive is not what you think. Araminta had retrieved the arsenic from under the antimacassar and hid it inside the chamber pot before Barnaby returned home from Kew, so by the time the vicar arrived Oswald and Lucasta had already eaten all of the cucumber-basil sandwiches and fed most of the violet crumble to the tiger.

Lobster2018 · 17/02/2022 05:42

Person 2 is lying.

How can texts be fabricated? It's there to see isn't it?

AllThatFancyPaintsAsFair · 17/02/2022 05:42

Absolutley no clue about the 1 and 2, way toake things as clear as mud but it's simple to fabricate texts if you have 2 phones

I agree he is lying but you can fabricate texts to a certain degree. You can save a number in your phone as anyone's. So the e could have sent a nude to someone else who said "nice" then renamed the number.

There's also websites where you can type in the name at the top and create your own text converstation. Screenshot it and it looks like a screenshot of your messages.

I am nor saying this happened. It probably didn't. But you can fabricate them. Only way you would know is to see the phone and check the number it came from, not the saved name.

You do them yourself. I am iPhone you can text yourself, so you will both message and reply to yourself. You then delete the duplicate texts and rename yourself in your contacts.

But agree that's a bit involved and probably not the case.

BobMortimersPetOwl · 17/02/2022 10:52

I don't know. They might all be lying. You haven't said what anyone else is claiming to be the truth other than person 1 having some texts.

AryaStarkWolf · 17/02/2022 10:55

Person 2 is lying imo

Who is lying about what? Your post doesn't say.

MorningStarling · 17/02/2022 11:19

Person 1 definitely lying, persons 2 and 3 probably lying. Sounds like a shit show all round.

TempName01 · 17/02/2022 11:33

@BattenbergdowntheHatches

The one with the penis is usually lying.
