I broke up with my then bf 3 months ago because I thought he had stolen 846 dollars from me. I just found the money.
I can’t say this on my main account and I need to write this out but oh my God, I messed up. I messed up badly.
I just found the money. It was in the chest of drawers i put it in but the drawer I put it in had a small opening in the back (I didn’t know it was there) and the envelope of money fell down there.
I would never have discovered it but the drawers broke so I was taking the chest apart and there was the envelope. It’s the same envelope because it has my handwriting on it and the receipt from the bank.
I have to apologize but this is going to be so bad. I told my friends and family about this, about how I suspected that he had stolen from me since he was the only one in my house that day. No one else had a key and I haven’t left that room or my house with the money.
God, he lost mutual friends because of me. I ended a 2 year relationship over this. I just didn’t believe him when he said he didn’t take it.
I hurt him for no reason and then I blocked him. A apology won’t be enough. I’m going to contact him tomorrow and then I’ll tell everyone else. Wow, I messed up.

- You have to defend him as loud as you slandered him.
- Over 30 years ago I lived with a guy that I really, really loved. His sister came to visit and lost a couple hundred dollars. I got blamed for taking it. It was ugly. I cried so hard and just couldn’t understand how anybody would think I would steal from them, especially him. We split up.
She found it not long after I left.
Even this many years later I think about that every now and then and it still hurts that I was called a thief when they were the ones that lost their own money. I lost some friends during all that.
It sucks. - After you apologize to him you need to make sure you tell everyone. I doubt he will want to speak to anyone who didn’t believe him but they still should know the truth.
