A woman has shared her absolute nightmare of a story on Reddit and it has left the internet divided…
“I don’t think I’d ever feel clean again, but that said, if they can deal with it, they should forget about it and move on. Definitely don’t tell anyone though,” one commenter wrote.
“I don’t think I could carry on knowing from that point… 6 years is a long time, people asking why stop? Would you continue if you knew the truth?” added another.
The story came about via the magical internet forum that is Reddit.
And it has gained quite the reaction online…
“I am 30 and my brother is 32,” the post began.
“I’m just going to call him my boyfriend for the majority of the time while I type this. I feel weird about this,” she wrote.
The pair were a totally normal couple.
That is, until then took a DNA test for fun. Then, they found out something shocking…
“My boyfriend was also adopted and when we met it was one of the things we sort of bonded over.
“We both didn’t learn we were adopted until high school and we both were lucky and had good families. We weren’t passed around from foster home to foster home,” she said.
“Our relationship was and still is great.
“We understood each other very fast. We were attracted to each other quickly. I’ve never met someone and felt immediate attraction and familiarity,” the woman continued.
And there was a reason for this…
“Now I know that the comfort and familiarity is because he’s my brother. Not my half-brother. He is my full brother,” she admitted.
Yikes.
The woman explained that until they found out, they had been a totally normal couple.
“We’ve said we love each other, we’ve had s*x, we’ve celebrated anniversaries, we’ve met each other’s families. I’m just glad we both agreed early on that we don’t want to have kids so that has never happened,” she continued.
“I’m really hoping they made a mistake but things are kind of starting to make sense to me now.
“We always get the ‘you guys look so alike’ or ‘he’s the male version of you.’ Long before this test, we’ve always gotten compared. We always just laughed it off but I have spent the morning looking at pictures of us together and realizing that we really do look so alike,” the women said.
“I still love my boyfriend/brother and we have been together for 6 years.
“We have a house together and a whole comfortable life. I’m hoping that this test is wrong and will do a real test soon but I’m panicking. I still see him as the love of my life,” she finished.
