Found his DD-214, which is like his exit paperwork from the military, and it didn't add up with what he told me.

And I went out into the kitchen and I poured myself, I am not joking, eight ounces of tequila down to that. My dad lives in the country, thank goodness, walked out way out into the hills and just screamed and screamed and screamed until I lost my voice. The person I had just spent three years loving and caring for and two months devastated over his loss didn't exist.

And I came to this point that day where I said, at the end of the day, he took everything from me. And when there was nothing left to take, The person I had loved and been in a relationship with disappeared. And with him went three years of my life into a black hole.

I was Googling everything I could. I'm a historian. I can research like nobody's business. So I'm just Googling everything I can think of to try to find out who this person is. I'm looking on Facebook. I'm looking on Instagram, social media.

You know, now I'm asking questions, right? What about these people? It's not real. Grandparents were not those people. Those people didn't exist at all. I mean, it was an entirely crafted life. His family is fake. His military experience was not his. And I don't know how he kept it all straight.

So I didn't know about his real mom, even though she's a real person who lives in a real place. I knew about some other version of someone that he could completely control that narrative. And I'm never going to look her up and say, is this the truth? I was the perfect person for him because I chose to trust him. And he practiced different things.

He tried out different things to test me to see if I would trust him. And I did. I always did. He very carefully curated my life.

When I finally learned everything and could sort of lay out a life timeline for him, there is about a three to five year capacity on the stories he was telling people. And then he would move on in some way. He would leave town. He would start a new school program, something like that. He'd get married. So he was coming to the end of that. And his stories were getting a little thin.
