15+ True Life Stories With an Unexpected Finale That Deserve a Movie

Sometimes it seems that all days in our life look like one another: we meet the same people and talk about the same topics. It’s like a vicious circle. However, there are moments where it seems that fate rewrites the plot. And we tend to remember these moments for many years ahead.

• A friend lived with her boyfriend. They constantly had a dripping tap, a pipe or a mixer tap. She had to use bowls to collect water and call plumbers. But the guy threw them all out, saying, "There is a man in the house!"
  But he only made promises and never fulfilled them. She couldn't stand it anymore and moved out. And he ended up flooding the neighbors downstairs. And then he called her and said, "It's all your fault." Eventually, he called a plumber himself, and they fixed everything. © Hellavisa / Pikabu
• I come home from work. I go to the kitchen and see my husband and our female neighbor drinking tea and smiling at each other. I ask them what's going on here. And the neighbor's like, "Julia, I don't know myself." At the same time, she's dressed in short shorts and a T-shirt. I freaked out.
  And then there's a knock on the door, and her husband comes in yelling, "That's it, you can come in now. Thank you, Sven!" He takes his wife, and they leave. I don't understand anything and ask my husband what it's all about.
  It turned out that the neighbors have an anniversary, so her husband decided to surprise her and decorate the apartment. But since she's always at home, he asked my husband to invite her for 30 minutes and silently pushed her out of the house. I don't know what kind of surprise he prepared for her, but she looked happy for a few days.

• I went on a first date with this bloke. After a couple of drinks he asked if I fancied going to his flat for a coffee as it was just round the corner. I agreed because I didn’t know how to say no, and turns out he was a hoarder. We’re not just talking a bit of mess here and there, more - I think you have a problem, kind of situation.
  His hallway was like an obstacle course and there were mounds of paper and crap all scattered on the floor of his living room, big IKEA bags overflowing with papers and books. Awful. His kitchen was unworkable. Every inch of every surface was covered in bottles or jars, the sink was overflowing with dirty dishes.
  The fact that he invited me back knowing the state of it all blew my mind. I stayed for 30 minutes then promptly left. And never saw or spoke to him again! He was 38, so no excuses. © Fearless_Grass_1493 / Reddit
• Went on 5 dates with this lady. On the fifth date, she admitted that she has 2 kids. I let it go and was still interested. She also admitted that she was still married. I was shocked and disgusted.
  I said that what she was doing was wrong. She replied, "I can leave him for you." I was nauseated and said that you would probably do the same thing to me. I just left. © Living_Reputation978 / Reddit
• I was in the office and a client came in, sociable, funny. We got to talking, and he told me that he bought his wife a new car. Said, "I love my wife very much." I really liked that.
  They've been married for many years, 2 children, but everyday life didn't kill their feelings... And then after a while, he started flirting with me and asking me out to dinner. How come? © Overheard / Ideer

• One of my first patients as a medical student, we were asking her about prior medical history because she was in a waitlist for an intestinal transplant, and we asked her in every possible way if she had any history, and she was like, "No, I was very healthy before this." Finally, we ask her, "Do you take any medications at home?" And she goes, "Oh, just the meds I take for the lupus." © absencefollows / Reddit
• My wife's in labor, about to give birth. Close to midnight I'm driving home from work, my wife calls and sobs into the phone, "I'm so sorry, my love!" My eyes went black, I barely had time to hit the brakes.
  I stopped, took a breath, asked her what happened. And she said, "I couldn't do it myself, I had to have a Cesarean." Oh, for Christ's sake, I almost died in those 10 seconds. The baby's fine. © pikachuka82 / Pikabu
• When I was at college, my fellow student broke his leg. He was from another city, and his family was far away. A couple of other people and I went to visit him, and I brought the things that are very needed when in hospital: slippers, underwear and loose pajamas with clasps on the side that are easy to put on through the cast, a lot of tissues, cream, baby powder, comb, toothpaste, several mugs and all that.
  I used to lie in hospitals a lot in the past, so I was aware of what's usually needed. And then I started coming over to visit him about once a week to bring him books and goodies, pick up laundry and give him stuff from his friends. The hospital was on the way to my mom's house, so why not?
  After he was discharged, he brought me a huge bouquet of roses, and said, "Look, you're a wonderful girl, and I'm very grateful to you, but I can't reciprocate. Ivan really likes you, and he's my best friend, and I can't do that to him. I'm sorry." I stand there in confusion. Ivan, who had never said anything to me other than "hello", is standing there red and with the eyes of a sad dog. © LazurnoeDno / Pikabu

• Evening, it's getting dark. Somebody's banging on the door. I look through the peephole and see our neighbor. I open the door, and he's like, "Don't go to the trash container. There's a snake in there!" Of course, my husband and I grabbed torches and went to see the snake (stupidity and courage).
  So, we went there and saw something long and striped peeking out of the trash container. It was bending and at the same time loudly slurping, purring with pleasure. We got closer, and the snake turned out to be fluffy. I ended up pulling a cat out of the container. He smelled so bad that I almost threw up, but he was wearing a collar with a tag with a phone number on it. I called the owners.
  Turns out they lived in the neighboring street, and I brought them their fragrant treasure. "We've been looking for him for a week, and he's in the trash container! Come here, my little one," and the woman ran off to wash the cat. Her husband thanked us. That's how we caught the "snake." © Unknown author / Pikabu
• I helped a bride (coworker from my old job) get the wedding she wanted, not her mother-in-law. I did tell the bride that I can only help sort her mother-in-law and mama’s boy groom out for the wedding, but not for the marriage. I pointed out that mother-in-law will get involved with everything in their marriage and the groom will side his mum. Also told her about the multiple red flags, I saw in their (bride and groom) relationship.
  I advised her to nope out of marrying the mama’s boy and his mum, before it’s too late. The bride believed that the second they say “I do,” the groom will change from mama’s boy to a perfect husband. Their marriage lasted 6 months.
  This is what the bride told me was the final straw: The couple was having their honeymoon a few months after the wedding day. The bride had points to upgrade their flight tickets to first class. The bride was caught off guard by the mother-in-law being at the airport, the groom said him and his mum will fly first class and the bride will fly economy. Then groom said about their hotel arrangements - him and his mum in honeymoon suite and bride in cheap single bedroom. © RottweilerBridesmaid / Reddit
• My friend's mom got married to a trucker. He was a pretty nice guy, treated her well, took care of her financially. About a year in, his other 3 wives from other states group called her to inform her that he was also married to all of them as well. They all divorced him at the same time. © orbitaldragon / Reddit

• I graduated from school with honors, got a scholarship at a good university, moved to a big city, where I support myself thanks to a good job, where I am steadily promoted and praised every year. A few years ago, I opened my own business, thanks to which I was able to provide for my family, who live in the small town. I regularly send them money so that they don't need anything.
  But I still haven't become as cool as Aunt Sam's daughter. It's because at 28, she's been divorced 3 times and raises 2 kids on her own. And I don't even have a boyfriend... © Caramel / VK
• A woman, mid-thirties, rented out a flat from my uncle around 10 years ago. He just renovated it and spent a couple of grand putting in a new kitchen, flooring, etc. She moves in, no problems, pays rent when due, etc. Around 4 months into the rental agreement, she stops all communication and defaults on her rent.
  My uncle being a pretty chill guy gave her some leeway and sent a letter pointing out her arrears and to pay what’s due. Another month goes by, no communication. Uncle paying the mortgage from his own funds. No response to the letter or phone calls. Knocks on the door go unanswered.
  3 months later, my uncle decided to try one last time to get into contact. Tried her phone, no answer. Wrote another letter, no response. Eventually went round again in person and knocked continuously for 5 minutes, no answer. Ear against the door, no sound.
  He decided to use his master key on the door, as it seems pretty obvious she was no longer living there. Opens the door, and she’s standing there in the kitchen and starts screaming. My uncle apologized and left the premises but also mentioned his attempts of contacting her for months to no avail and that she’s in 3 months of arrears.
  Long story short, she brings him to court (using a public defender) for breaking and entering and harassment. She was rewarded £8K in damages. She also thought it was in her right to leave the flat in a horrid condition, which required more money to put right before renting again. © Unknown author / Reddit
• My mother-in-law decided to plant potatoes. She rented a plot of land outside the city, 25 acres. I said that I don't participate in this.
  When we went there, I was sunbathing, and my husband and his mum worked on the field. We went there all summer. It was time to dig up potatoes. We got up at 4 a.m., arrived, went to the site, and the field had been all plowed over. Somebody had stolen all the potatoes.
  My mother-in-law took the loss stoically. Mourned the harvest, sighed a little. The only thing that gave away her upset was a nervous tic. The next year, when a friend offered her to lease a plot again, she said, "You know, to hell with it! It's not worth it. We used only one sack of potatoes this winter!" © Zharkushy / Pikabu

• A pregnant woman from a small town came to the hospital. She was calm and obedient. After taking an anamnesis and filling out paperwork, it was time for hygiene procedures. Midwives helped pregnant women with some manipulations, for example, with shaving, if the belly is big, heavy and so on.
  This pregnant woman was given a razor and soap and asked, "Do you want to shave yourself or do you want help?" She nonchalantly said, "I'll do it myself!" and went to the bathroom. They got worried when she didn't come out for a long time. They knocked, and when she came out, it turned out that the girl had shaved off all the hair on her head! Just shaved her head without even asking why. The manager got a nervous breakdown... © Medical Tales / VK
• We had a chemistry teacher who was really mean. Everyone was scared of her. The kids weren't ready for that level of anger. And she loved potted plants. If someone accidentally touched plants, things got ugly.
  Anyway, a few years after graduation, I met her in a plant shop where our Ms. Matthews worked as a sales assistant. And she was smiling at people! Including me. It was a shock. © berenica20 / Pikabu

• My husband left for a corporate party. At midnight, I was going to bed and called him to ask when he would be back. My husband said he was leaving in 30 minutes. So I went to bed and fell asleep.
  I woke up 2 hours later, and my husband wasn't in bed. I called, no answer. I watched something on my tablet and went back to sleep. I wake up at 4 a.m. Husband's not in bed. I call - no answer. I wake up at 6 a.m., same thing.
  I end up getting up at 8 a.m. I didn't sleep well, I'm worried. I go to the kitchen, turn on the coffee machine and start calling my husband again. And then I hear a voice from behind me, "Make me a coffee too." I almost fell out of the window!
  It turned out that my husband really left in 30 minutes, as he said, came home and went to sleep in another room, so as not to wake me up. And he didn't answer the phone because he had switched off the sound and woke up only from the noise of the coffee machine. © Life Stories / VK
• A couple of years ago, I rented a flat on the 5th floor of a 5-storey building. I lived alone with a cat. One day, at lunchtime, we had a situation in the kitchen. I put a pot of water on the stove and went into the living room. The cat was sitting next to me, and suddenly I heard a rumble from the kitchen.
  I gathered courage, and together with the scared cat we went to see what had happened. I entered the kitchen and saw a pigeon sitting in the sink! It had just fallen out of the kitchen hood. So, it was sitting there, pecking crumbs from the plate, and didn't care less about what happened! © Overheard / VK
