Life often throws us curveballs we didn’t see coming. Sometimes these curveballs add excitement, and other times they make big changes. Today’s article is about shocking discoveries that changed people’s lives in big ways, leaving them shocked and amazed.

“I was telling a client about a guy I met at the place where I used to spend the summers. There was a bad word about him in town because he was caught cheating on his wife more than once and showed off his money like he was rich. He lost all of his money trying to improve some land, and now there were no more businesses in town that would work with him.
She asked what his name was. It was her boyfriend. Now I’m on the phone with a client who is crying because she planned to marry a man who didn’t have any money but had a wife.” From designgoddess on Reddit

“I looked for a job once. I was not long into my job, and I wanted to move 500 miles to a new place. Some of my work was brought along along with prototypes I made. I thought it was a lock because everyone seemed so excited about the 9-hour drive. I didn’t get the job. I got another job in the same area and started working there. After 6 months, they called and asked me to come in for an interview for the job that was above the one I had sought. I got the job right away and worked there for almost ten years. People I worked with in the beginning told me that the person whose job it was (and who would have been my boss if he hired me) had told them that the samples and work I did were too advanced for him and that he didn’t want an employee who knew more than him. I guess that doesn’t bother him now that they fired him and hired me instead.” Not Sure Who Wrote It/Reddit

“When I was told I had autism, my life took a big turn. Getting the diagnosis was like a big punch in the gut after being bullied every day for years and going to therapy once a week.” From opthomas_primal on Reddit

“When I found out I was pregnant with my third child, I couldn’t wait to tell my husband. Taking the sonogram apart, he said, “You’re going to get rid of it” and stuck his finger in my chest. We got a divorce the day before I gave birth to our daughter.” OkRemote5 on Reddit

“During my first year of college, a girl hung out in my dorm hall a lot. Fun-loving, happy all the time, hyper, and smart. My roommate had a big crush on her. After that summer, she stops showing up at campus and doesn’t answer texts or other messages. After three years, all of a sudden, her social media come to life again… as Miss Pennsylvania.” From stouf761 on Reddit

“While I was out with a friend, we ran into her dad and his other family.” sci_lit on Reddit

“A friend of mine had a very close family. His parents, four brothers, an uncle, and another guy all lived with him.
Everything was fine until everyone learned that his uncle is his real father…” Reddit user fencemya**offanddie

“I was in charge of a brand-new catering business in our town. Our first wedding was a typical one. There was pipe and drape, lots of white, and nice people.
When it’s been a year, our salespeople send the client an email. After they got married, it turned out that the best man had been seeing the bride while she was engaged and while she was engaged. It goes without saying that they split up.” From ManicFirestorm on Reddit
