    This happened two years ago but I still thought it was worth telling.

    FI(then BF) used to have a roommate who we'll call Megan. Megan and I really hit it off when we met. It wasn't the ideal situation but... was what it was. 

    I bought my FI(then BF) an iPhone for his birthday that year. And his phone had a habit of pocket dialing the last person he spoke to. Since we spoke on the phone all the time, the person it called was often me.

    Christmas time rolls around and I beg FI to get a Christmas tree. Megan didn't want to be bothered with getting a tree. However, when FI and I went to get the tree, Megan insisted she tag along since the apartment was half hers. We went looking for the tree and it was the Megan show. I was bummed because she didn't even WANT the tree. She was just there because of the principle of the matter. But we end up getting the tree SHE wanted and picking the colors SHE liked. I was pissed... But I didn't say anything because it wasn't my place. It's her house too. Gotta suck it up. I was irrationally irritated, not stupid enough to make a deal about it.

    Christmas time came and went. This is the world's longest story to tell so I'm really trying to condense it. 

    A few weeks later, my voicemail box was full so I decided to check my voicemails. I happen to be one of those super irritating people who never listen to their voice messages. So i was deleting most of them without even listening to the message. But whenever I heard a message from FI, I would stop and listen.  One of the messages was odd. It was clearly a pocket dial. I was just about to press the delete button when I heard it. Megan's voice. I immediately recognize her sickeningly over-flirtatious twang.

    Automatically I was on edge and listening to every word. Call me jealous. Whatever. I couldn't hear much but this is pretty much what I could make out:

    (Megan and FI giggling. Keys rustling. Sounds like they just entered the apartment)

    Megan: "I hate that tree"

    FI: "Me too"

    (More rustling. Then you hear the squeezing sound people make when giving someone else a big hug)

    FI: "hi"
    Megan: "hi"

    (more giggling like some lovesick schoolchildren)

    Megan: "Let's go to the bedroom!"

    (Now we hear sounds of more giggling and what I guess are walking sounds. I assume they reach the bedroom.)

    FI: "Who said you could lay on my bed?"
    Megan: "I did."
    FI: "Good idea!"

    (The next few seconds were hard to understand. At some point her cat enters the room and I assume the cat starts rubbing on Megan or wanting attention by what happens next. Let's call the cat Coco)

    FI: "Coco, stop flirting with my girlfriend! You can't have her, she's mine!"

    (At this point they proceed to do more talking that I can't quite make out. I can just hear a few words and
    her annoying laugh. She seriously has the most annoying voice in the world)

    End of call.

    I am heartbroken. And livid. I could not believe he would do that to me. I call him up immediately and scream "Have you ever in life called Megan your girlfriend?!!!!!!" He says no. I hang up. I  listen to the message over and over and over. I listen to it with my left ear. I listen to it with my right ear. I listen to it on speaker. I listen to it at high volume. I listen to it at low volume. They all confirm the same thing. FI sucks.

    I try and see if there is any way I could be overreacting. No... She was on his BED. She was clearly coming on to him. And he LET her. I was sick to my stomach over it. I wouldn't let myself cry. He wasn't worth it. I wanted to punch him and throw him in traffic and ask him WHY all at the same time.

    I called him to end it.

    He told me what all guys say. He didn't know what I was talking about. I was paranoid. He loved me. He'd never hurt me.

    I told him I had proof. I told him that I knew Megan was on his bed. I knew he flirted with her. I knew he called her his girlfriend. I told him he pocket dialed me and I had it all on tape. He said that if he could listen to the message he could explain it. Of course he could. Typical. I told him that what hurt the most was that I thought he was at least man enough to own up to it.

    I hung up on him again. And then I got pissed. My FI is a very busy man and some weeks WE barely have time to see each other. When did he have time to have romantic interludes with this girl??! I listened to the time on the message. 1:50 pm. Where the eff was I at 1:50 this day??! I check my texts to see what excuse he gave me as to where he was at this time. I only had 2 texts from him that day. One at 12:33 pm and another at 11:58 pm. Wtf? He's with this girl all day and only texts me TWICE? I begin to read the messages. The 12:33 message reads "I'm outside" and the 11:58 message reads "Goodnight". Wait... What? It almost sounds like we were together that day! But that can't be!  I begin to think REALLY hard about it. I worked from 6 am to noon on the day in question. FI picked me up from work on the day in question. I think even harder. Megan was on a cruise to the Bahamas on the day in question. Which means.... Oh sh*t.

    The girl with the annoying voice was me. :(

    He pocket dialed me WHILE he was with me.

    I was the one who hated the Christmas tree.

    I was the one giggling like a school girl.

    And I was the one who had to make the worlds most embarrassing call explaining the whole situation to FI. :(

    He's so great. He laughed and said he knew it would work itself out because nothing like that had ever happened. He was annoyed by it but really was good natured. However, to this day he still jokes about the day he cheated on me with... me. Lol.

    I keep inventing new ways to humiliate myself. :)

    So... Has anyone else ever made a supreme ass of themselves in front of their FI? Please share stories!! I'm having surgery tomorrow and I'm nervous so hopefully someone will post some funny ones to help calm my nerves :)

    I am sorry but that story crack me up. I am glad he realy did not cheat on you.  I am sorry you are having sugery tomororw and I hope its nothing major. My stor is not as good as yours but I hope it will help you take your mind off the surgery. I knew FI purchased my engagement ring because we went ring shopping and left the card with pick up time on the table. I swear for an entire week i search up and down our small ass apartment for that ring and came up with nothing. He finaly popped the question and I asked him where he hid the ring. He said I put it in the one place I knew you would never go look. He had the sucker outside in the balcony storage because he knows I hate bugs and would never go out there. The entire week he knew I was looking for that ring he would ask me to go get stuff outof the storage closet and I said HELL NO! I thought I was way smarter then him but he showed me I was dead wrong.

    Holy crap that is the funniest story and sounds like something I would do. The entire time I was reading it I was like "I CANNOT BELIEVE SHE'S MARRYING HIM!?! What a sleeze bag. I can't believe she'd hate a Christmas tree!!" and then the kicker.

    @jayebaby:  Sorry, but I LMAO!  I have a good one for you.  This happened to someone I know.  Here's a true story. 

     The woman and man are a young couple.  They have a couple of kids, rarely go out. The woman is really excited because they are going out this New Year's Eve.  They hire a babysitter, because they don't get out much, the babysitter hasn't sat often for them, but that's ok.  The woman buys a new outfit, a blouse and a pair of pants.  She does her hair up, gets it really set, and sprays it like crazy to stay nice for the whole evening/night.  She is dressed to the nines.  They leave, and have a great time.  The woman has a little too much to eat, and is sleepy.  So to be comfortable for the (long) ride home, she undoes her zipper, and she puts her head on her husband's lap on the way home.  They arrive home, she opens the door and gives the babysitter money.  The babysitter is looking at her a bit-and she thinks of how "awesome" she looks tonight, so she figures that is what the babysitter is looking at her and thinking that she looks pretty impressive all done up!  As the husband takes the babysitter home, the wife looks in the mirror, and realizes that her make-up is now a mess!  Her pants are undone!  And her hair is flat and sticking straight up from having her head on husband's lap.

    OMG WOMAN!!! hahaha I was on the edge of my seat waiting for the d-bag to admit what he did to you!!! Lol, that's awful. SO embarassing! I was thinking, what the heck she's talking about this pretty non-chalant and she's still with her FI so what the heck happened. OMG, how could you not remember it being you?? That's just so hilarious. Your poor FI was probably like lord jesus, what is she talking about. 

    I know girls who have done something like that on PURPOSE in trying to trick their BF to admit something. That's so awful. I'm so happy that did NOT happen to you, I don't know how I'd feel about my SO living with a chick. Ehhhh. Go you :) You seem very happy now so that's all that matters. Too funny though, seriously.

    Lol, I'm glad to finally share this with someone. I made FI swear to never speak a word about it in real life. He wants to include it in our toast. Lol.

    @MissTX: I think it's mostly because in my head I have a deep, sarcastic voice... Like Juno. But in reality I sound more like Vanessa Hudgens. It's annoying. And embarrassing. I was not meant to have these pipsqueak vocal cords. I have dissociated myself from it entirely. Every time I hear myself speak I have a "Omg that is NOT me" moment. And it was so hard when they lived together but we made it through. He lived there before me and left FOR me so what more can I ask :)

    @sexxysheddy: You are so sweet :) It's nothing serious, just oral surgery. It's complicated to explain but no hospital stay :) That story was super cute. Haha, he knows you so well!

    @creativeplannertobee- LMAO!!!! That is horrible! I would have to move and change my name. Lol, that babysitter had to be so uncomfortable!

    @anglang- That sounds like something I would do! :) lol, I'm glad you found it though!

    I'll play:

    About 2 years ago I found a pair of another girl's dirty knickers down my (then BF) FIs side of our bed. I was shocked and then very upset.

    I called FI who said all the usual man things - "I don't know anything about it" etc. I put down the phone and I was just on the point of freaking out completely and kept thinking "this just isn't like him, he's just not the kind of guy who would cheat".

    Then I remembered that my best mate had got changed in our bedroom for a night out a couple of days before and when I asked her, they were hers! Needless to say I was very glad I hadn't completely lost it with him before checking up on whether he was telling me the truth!

    Hahahah I kept reading that going "WHY is she calling him FI????" and I was so confused why this girl would hate the tree... this is hilarious, I'm glad FI was a good sport about it.

    ETA: Now that I think of it I've done things like this. One time I had on a thong and got my period so I made DH stop at Marshall's on the way to a family party and get me some regular undies. They were wicked elastic granny panties and I hated them. They ended up under the bed and I found them a few weeks later and freaked out on him and he denied knowing anything about them. Eventually I show him the undies and he's like "those are YOURS! Remember we got them at Marshall's??" I felt so stupid. Best of all, I had made fun of this imaginary granny panty wearing homewrecker that turned out to be me. I also interrogated him about a hair elastic I found on a shelf that was covered in hair that was not mine approximately 2 hours after my best friend had put it on the shelf when I gave her an elastic to replace it with, and I was the one who told her it was gross and hairy and made her put in a new one.

    A similar thing happened with me early in our relationship:

    FI: I did laundry and found your red tanktop

    ME: I definitely do not own a red tanktop. Other girlfriend.

    FI: nooo it has to be yours. or maybe it's my friend's...uh...but I'm pretty sure it's yours.

    ME: YOU'RE SUCH AN ASS I DO NOT OWN A RED TANK TOP WHO'S BEEN AT YOUR APARTMENT UNDRESSING HUH?!

    (A few days later at his apt.)

    ME: Oh, yes, forgot I had that shirt...

    happyface    May 2017   wedding postponed - don't know date yet

    My Fiance has a screen by the window and when I entered the bedroom I saw a pair of lacy red thongs hanging from the top of the screen, where everyone can see from the building next door... I don't wear thongs at all so I picked them up and asked "what are these?" He grinned and calmly replied "Those came with the Valentine package I got you a couple of years ago... remember?" He had put them up there so he wouldn't "lose" them while he was unpacking! P.S. they are still there hanging for all to see! LOL
