Trust Your Gut
U/Altruistic_Excuse456: “My brother, his mother, and her boyfriend invited a school acquaintance around for dinner when I was about six or seven years old. All I remember about the relationship is that I wasn’t fond of him. He wanted to play the game called “airplane” with me, where the child lies on their feet and pretends to be flying while the adult lies on their back.
I informed my parents that I didn’t like him, and from what I remember, they didn’t seem to think much of him either. It goes without saying that he never returned to our home. Shortly afterward, the mother of my brother’s buddy vanished and was subsequently discovered deceased. As it happens, he killed her. Something about this man bothered me even as a small child, and I have never been able to get over it.”
