      I just wanna say that my Uncle retired from Coca-Cola, having worked there quite a while. He'd perform service/maintenance on drink machines in all the restaurants in town. Now, he said you could walk into Chick-fil-A on their 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙨𝙩 possible day, it would still be cleaner than any other restaurant on their 𝙗𝙚𝙨𝙩 possible day.

      She was willing to help kidnap a girl, throw her in the trunk, drive her out to the woods & beat her up, 2 on 1. I seriously doubt they were planning on driving her back to town after the kidnapping, transporting & beating. So they were going to leave her in the woods, stranded, after jumping her. But that was “all” she was going to help her with.
      She did nothing to stop any of it. She didn’t tell her friend that it was insane & to move on. Nope she agreed to help & waited in the car for that girl.
      She didn’t yell for help during or after the attack. Nope she said, “this wasn’t the plan, not here”.
      After the attack her only concern was getting away after they were spotted.
      She showed 0 sympathy for the girl that died & only wanted to explain how it was all her friends fault.
      She actually feels more sorry for herself than the actual dead victim.

    The food court story hit close to home. My very athletic and healthy 16 yo son was hospitalized this past August with salmonella poisoning from an undercooked chicken sandwich at a popular regional fast food chain. It was awful. I do not wish it on even my worst of enemies. I've never seen anyone so sick in my life. He was literally gray even after 4 bags of fluids. His heartrate that's usually around 75 bpm was over 120 until the 5th bag of fluids where it hovered at 110 bpm. It took him several weeks to fully recover.
    Kind of sleeping on a recliner worried your previously healthy child may die from someone's negligence is literally a horrible feeling.
    Needless to say no one in our family and friend group have eaten at that chain since. Don't know if we ever will either.

      ❤I totally agree with you - this is not a competition. I am 38 years old and unfortunately already lost 3 of my exes and a few of my friends and part time lovers. But if I speak about them, I don't begin my narrative with how many presents I got from them etc. I feel sorry for the girl but to my mind she seems manipulative and judgemental. She boasts about "surviving at 17 but not being a prostitute" so at first I thought she worked very hard but then it turnes out that she is only talking about her boyfriend's (also financial) help - not only for her, but also for her sister. God knows what she would do as a teenager from an abusive and (as we say in Poland) pathological family if she didn't meet her boyfriend at that time, so she shoudn't think that she is better than others. I feel sorry for her loss, but never on this have I heard a story told in such an egocentric, judgemental and narcisstic way - to begin with "it is not a big deal when a boy slaps you and this is not a reason for a therapy but I came through a real ordeal"...she is Simply disrespectful and self - centred.

      When nobody was talking about it, yeah. Sometimes you have to say or hear something out loud to connect the dots. In hindsight, like the story is told, it's obvious. At the time, it probably wasn't as obvious. The two people who apparently knew about clingy psycho bf, and could have explained his motive to investigators, may have even worked it out for themselves, and given them a place to start, stayed hush.
      Police can't investigate if nobody talks.

    I don't usually feel compelled to comment on the stories told by this wonderful channel, they're either objectively researched by our lovely narrator, or first-person accounts. However story 7 really is what I'm referring to, so take or leave what I have to say, I just feel like maybe it may help someone.
    One person's trauma being objectively worse than yours, does not diminish your trauma, the affect it has had or continues to have on you, or invalidate how you choose to cope with it. If you need therapy for life because a boyfriend hit you, that's okay. Its okay that that is the worst thing to ever happen to you and how you chose to manage the feelings you have around you and mitigate the effects of that event is valid, and entirely unique to you. Horrible things do happen every day, and they don't cancel each other out. A war in country A is not more or less devastating than a massive earthquake in another. Similarly, just because my ex was emotionally and verbally abusive and maybe yours struck you physically, we both carry that with us, and learn to cope and manage. They don't cancel each other out.
    Lets try to be a bit kind to each other, I understand sometimes when we have been through a lot, the problems most others face seem trivial. But to them, it is the worst thing they've had to deal with, and in many ways that's not something to call out it's something to celebrate. I don't walk around carrying the ptsd I have, wishing everyone else would suffer too. I'm overjoyed that there are people who have no idea what it feels like, because it means the hell I went through isn't something they had to go through

    The last two stories are the very definition of heartbreaking. 💔😢 I had a very good friend who lost her boyfriend in a motorcycle accident that she was also in. She held him while his life slipped away. She's never been the same; who would be? You don't "get over" the loss of a loved one. You may come to terms with it, you may learn to accept it to some degree, but get over it? I don't think so. It's an awful, helpless feeling to watch someone grieve and know there's nothing that can be said or done to make it better.
    She was able to move on eventually. They had a son together. I'd like to think that he is a small comfort to her as part of her boyfriend lives on through their son. She remarried and had a set of twins years after and she's doing okay.
    I hope and pray that the OP of the last story will be able to go on, when she is ready, carrying the memory of Brendan with her. I believe he is with her in spirit, watching over her. And I know he'd want her to eventually experience happiness again - just as she would have wanted the same for him if the roles were reversed. When she is ready, that is. There is no allotted time for grief and sorrow, in my opinion. It's as unique as the individual is.
    Thank you for the stories Let's Read. 😊

Very abrupt and unexpected. Very painful to not get to say goodbye. Been afraid of driving and walking since and I can't imagine losing my child that way.

    While the trauma of the last person was real: So was the pettiness level. Everyone processes trauma different and some of those very same people she went after may have ended themselves over the situation she is attempting to recover from. She may just be stronger. But it totally doesn't give her a right to belittle other people's traumas.
    I'm all about being empathetic and sympathetic, so I feel for her. I really do. I know I probably wouldn't be strong enough to pull myself back from the same situation. But that pettiness though....

    Something similar to the second to last story almost happened right in front of me 5 days ago. I was walking out of the mall and noticed a wondering toddler with her distracted mother. I decided to wait at the edge of the sidewalk as if I was waiting for a ride hoping to stranger danger the kid back to her mother but with in a minute the kid made a beeline for the parking lot. I ran up and threw my arm in front of her, purchases and all, with in seconds of a truck passing by. I think it took the mom about 10 yards after pulling the kid away from me and booking it to her car to realize what almost happened.

    I don't think I have ever criticized any story or story writer out of respect for this channel.
    But I can't help it this time.
    The last story.... First of all, it's very weird to me that a child abuse victim would start their story not only criticizing domestic abuse victims, but being very snarky about it and so condescending.
    If I could translate her opening, it would be something like this:
    "Look ya'll. Your first world problem stories that this channel has been telling are nothing, and you are finally going to hear a REAL one."
    Spoiler alert:
    Her story is a lesson. It is exactly what NOT to do if you are being robbed, are outnumbered, unarmed and unable to defend yourself. If the story is true, it is tragic. A BMW (first world problems, right?) is not worth your life.
    But still, it's sad. I wonder how the boyfriend's family felt, how they coped. She mentioned his father bought him the BMW, but didn't mention the father's grief or the grief of his other loved ones. I wonder how they got through it.

      That being said I also have a lot of empathy for her because I know what it’s like to be so caught up in your own pain you forget everyone else can feel it too. I mean at the end she even said “and maybe it’s because I’ve tried to deal with this all on my own,” which makes it sound like she’s never sought therapy or professional help. I’m pretty inclined to believe that because she sounds like someone still wrapped up in her own trauma and has never had the opportunity to process it fully. I just hope she heals and I hope every other person that shares their stories don’t feel unimportant or discouraged by it.
