How I Discovered My Ex Was Living a Double Life

I had been in a relationship with this guy for nearly a year. Aside from the typical issues that arise in any relationship—like jealousy and communication with ex-partners—everything seemed to be going well. He lived with his daughter and father in a large, upscale two-story home. His dad was often busy with work and earned a substantial income, which made me perceive them as upper class.

My ex claimed to have a full-time job with varying hours, and he would go to work almost every day. He often shared details about his day and his job, which felt normal at the time.

However, one day, I received a troubling call from my parents expressing their concern for me. They informed me that they had spotted my ex, who was supposedly at work, standing in the median of a busy intersection holding a sign and begging for money.

As I dug deeper, I discovered that he had been doing this for years and had never held a job during our entire relationship. It turned out he was simply lazy. I was taken aback by this revelation, but now, reflecting on the situation, I realize I overlooked several warning signs that should have alerted me to the truth.
