I hate people who lie.  Like for example, my friend Fred was dating this guy Mark a couple years ago, and after 6 months of dating, Mark told him that he had brain cancer. Six months later things got really serious, and Mark wasn’t doing to good. Mark’s family was originally from Singapore, and he told Fred that there was a doctor in Singapore who he was going to see. This doctor was supposedly a friend of the family who they trusted. So Mark and his family flew to Singapore, leaving Fred behind, in hopes of getting some help, and saving his life. Apparently things didn’t go to well in Singapore, and Fred found out that Mark only had a day or so to live. With so little time left Fred couldn’t possibly make it to Singapore in time, and because of tradition they would have to immediately bury Mark. This meant that Fred would miss the funeral as well. Sure enough a couple hours later Mark’s mother contacts Fred to tell him of his death. With no closure Fred mourned the loss of Mark for the next year and a half, and recently just started putting his life back together. Fred was now dating again, and has been seeing a new man for the past month.

Yesterday Fred received a friend request on Facebook from his ex-boyfriend who died of brain cancer. Confused by this, Fred felt that someone was playing a cruel joke on him. Fred messaged this person, and asked what the hell was going on. This person responded with “I just wanted to say hi”.   Fred decided to snoop around, and clicked to see his photo albums. All the pictures were of his ex-boyfriend Mark. There were pictures of Mark getting married to a woman, and many pictures of him and this woman kissing. Still confused, Fred decided to contact Mark’s brother about this mysterious person on Facebook claiming to be Mark. His brother simply said to him “It’s Mark…. He faked his death, and we all lied about it. I can’t tell you anything more though” That’s right…. He faked his death, and now is apparently straight living in Indonesia. Who the fuck does that? And who the fuck decides to notify you via a Facebook friend request!!?

Sadly… this is a true story.
