Social media has a way of creeping into your life, becoming a part of your relationships,
whether you like it or not. It’s harmless for the most part — cute pictures and updates for friends and family.
But sometimes, things take a turn you never see coming.
Mark and I had been together for almost a year. Honestly, he was the perfect boyfriend.
Sweet, caring, and always making me laugh, whether we were out hiking or just watching TV on a lazy Sunday.
I felt so lucky to have him in my life. So, I figured it was time to make things official on Facebook.
We were on a hiking trail one afternoon when we snapped a picture together.
It was cute — us smiling with the sun shining behind us.
“Just me and my favorite person on our latest adventure!”
I captioned it, adding a couple of heart emojis.
I shared the post, excited to share a bit of our happiness with the world.
Then, ten minutes later, I got a notification that made my stomach drop.
It wasn’t a like or a comment. It was a message: “YOU MUST RUN FROM HIM. NOW.”
