My Friend Spiked My Drink Every Day. I Was Shocked To Know The Reason

Hey, guys. My name is Michelle. Recently, my personal life fell apart, and I almost had to go to the hospital. And all this happened because the person who I thought was my friend, was slowly poisoning me.

So, this is my boyfriend, Matt, we've been dating for over a month, and recently he asked me out on a double date. It was supposed to be Matt and I, and his friend with his girlfriend. It sounded interesting and we met for a walk in the park. Greg and Dina had also started their relationship just a couple weeks ago, and they seemed pretty nice to me. The only strange thing was that Dina was often silent, and she would look at me and my boyfriend awkwardly. I guess she was just a little uncomfortable with the new group. Anyway, we started seeing each other more often, but soon strange things started happening. And I was kind of embarrassed about it because I was disrupting our get togethers. I mean, not on purpose!


I remember the night it happened for the first time. We had big plans. We were going to the movies, then to some cafe, and then to a little party at Greg's house. Matt and I were in line for tickets, and Greg and Dina came over with a pile of food and coke. We were very excited, and were just thinking about how cool our evening was going to be. But, unfortunately, I couldn`t go to the party. While we were watching the movie, I started to feel bad. I started to have a strong headache, and I just wanted to sleep. I really wanted to keep hanging out, but I just couldn't. I was sorry, but I asked Greg to take me home. I knew how much he wanted to keep hanging out, but he was understanding. He knew that I didn't do it on purpose. But a few days later it happened again. The four of us were at an amusement park, and after lunch, I had the same symptoms, and I had to leave again. I didn't know what it was. All the symptoms always disappeared the next morning. Then it repeated several more times. I honestly tried to fight it. I endured headaches and drowsiness, but I still infected the party with my bad mood. I was very ashamed of it. Besides, I could see that Matt was getting tired of it. And I could understand him. Imagine your girlfriend telling you that it's time to leave in the midst of the fun over and over again. So he was often upset. He didn't say anything to me about it, but his patience soon came to an end.


Matt had a birthday, and he decided to organize a mini-hike. We loaded the tents and food into the car, picked up Greg and Dina, and headed out of town. We found a beautiful clearing near a lake, camped there, and prepared for the best weekend of our lives. We swam in the lake, played volleyball, then started a fire and started cooking dinner. Everything had to go perfectly. But after dinner I started to feel bad again. I didn't want to spoil the party, so I hid my feelings as best I could. I continued to eat, to talk, to have fun, and to laugh. But my symptoms continued to get worse. This time I had a bad stomach ache and had to ask Matt to drive me home. The party was over, and Matt's birthday was ruined. And it was my fault. Worst of all, I couldn't even control it. In the middle of the night we had to pack everything and go back to the city. We drove in complete silence in a very tense atmosphere. I knew Matt was really angry at the time, and I was really sorry that it was my fault.


Matt came to my house the next morning and we had a conversation. He said he was tired of my moods and he didn`t like that I was constantly disrupting get togethers with his friends. I always started to feel bad only when the four of us got together. That's a very strange coincidence, isn't it? He thought I just didn't like Greg and Dina, and that every time I would ruin the get-together on purpose. It hurt his feelings, because Greg was his best friend, and if he had to choose between me and him, he would choose Greg. As you can probably understand, we broke up and I was very sad about that. I couldn't understand why he thought I did it on purpose. How could he think such a thing? But there was nothing I could do about it. He left me. I was pining for him, wondering why it happened. It was a really weird fact that I only felt bad when we all got together. There was something strange about it, and I didn`t understand what. But soon there was another event that gave me a chance to figure everything out.


Greg stopped me when I was walking down the school hallway. He looked very sad and worried. It turned out that it was not just me who had problems in their personal life. Greg said that Dina dumped him, and he didn't understand why she did it.
