There is always another side to the story.

I was friends once with someone who I later found out had schizophrenia. She used to say horrible stuff about what other people had done to her.

Then came the couple of times some raging hot-headed guy would be banging on the front door of our house yelling at us and wanting to have a go because of the all the horrible things we had done to this poor girl..

It is amusing looking back but wasn't at the time, and it was scary how far people are willing to go even off hearsay.

This happened to someone I know - his then girlfriend had an abusive ex who threatened her, stalked her etc.

All make-believe! The messages she'd used as evidence were sent from her own number saved under the ex's name.

When caught cheating she disappeared and stuck the guy I know with the bill for a shared vacation.

He then becomes the 'demon ex' and the cycle of grift continued.
