WTF - Who the f, did I marry? (Tik Tok series)

[awhyley]

There is a budding phenomenon on Tik Tok from Reesamteesa. From what I gather, she made posts about her narcissistic ex and was encouraged to extend into a series of 50+ posts, over the course of 4-5 days. She was married to this man for a short time during the pandemic, but it was enough to cause psychological damage based on this man lies. She also had a pregnancy that was not brought to term. These posts now have millions of views. I watched a summary, and here are the highlights;

- He lied to her about his job, (naturally, he wasn't making as much as he purported)
- He 'bought' them a $700k+ house with this fantabulous salary that he said he was making
- He spoke to his 'brothers' often, but was actually taking to no one

And there's more. But here is where it gets interesting. Although, she took great pains to protect his identity, the ex 'Rome' (JeRome) actually came forward with a rebuttal and accussed Ressamteesa of cheating. While this was happening, her (step)son entered the chat, and discussed his problems with Rome. There was an altercation where the police picked them both up. The son ceased talking about everything as he didn't want to talk too much of his mamas business.

Wait, there's more. Rome's ex-wife started posting HER experiences with him, which backed up Reesamteesa's story as she too needed therapy after her relationship with this man. And another lady posted her experiences with Rome, which also confirmed the other two ladies experiences. Did I mention that he's been in trouble with the law? It's going to take an entire day to get through all this, but I'm determined to get through it all.

I don't know how to post Tik Tok clips, but I'll see if anyone brought them over to Youtube. Anyone watching?

Someone made a 5 hour compilation video for YT. I'm watching on the iPad now.

Yep, just located and posted it. There are true MVPs out there. (eta: Did I mention that he also goes by the moniker 'Legion'?)

Putting YouTube on the tv, so that I can enjoy the playback like this:

I thought about posting but was trying to protect my energy. What bothered me the most is that I can see a lot of women ending up in this situation. How likely are you to think a man is lying about his job when he’s paying all the bills?

This is exactly why I can't get with sentiment of whoever has the money can never be questioned. That's the main reason he was about to keep up the charade. I suspect if he had been able to continue working with the injury, she might have been married longer.

A cautionary tale to be sure. Someone made a comment about her checking his Company website to confirm, but when you're getting swept off your feet, it's hard to be rational. Based on these women's testamonies, he was a real fast/sweet talker.

Folks need to stop airing things on social media. Take things to the grave or therapist. I may be the only one with such opinion but it opens one up to more things.

Here's the ex-wife (Latoya) jumping on this bandwagon:

Thanks for the cliff notes bc I won't be watching. I started seeing the commentary on Monday but decided to protect my peace.

I heard she's a great story teller though.

 

[awhyley]

When I find the other lady's response, I'll post. (eta: Here it is.)

 

[awhyley]

Here is the step-son's opinion of events (note: a few curse words therein). NB - This is Latoya's son, not Reesamteesa's.

I’ve been watching since yesterday and I’m on part 46 out of 52. He’s quite a character, sorry this happened to her.

 

[Theresamonet]

I watched (listened to rather) all 50 parts over the last few days. It was entertaining and she is a good storyteller. However, I did find it to be a bit anticlimactic, because the ending was pretty much what you'd expect right from the start of the story. It all sounds like lies from the start, and then we find out—yes, he was lying. There is no twist.

For this one, it's definitely the journey and not the destination.

 

[awhyley]

But it seems that there is a happy ending - ReesaTeesa is going to Europe (London & Paris specifically)! Apparently, she's always wanted to go.

Not too mention all the social, psychological, and cultural commentary that can be made from this.

 

[awhyley]

Apparently, the blessings keep on flowing, as people are hounding the brands to give ReesaTeesa stuff (separate from the Crowd-funded items).
Word on the street is that she's getting that BMW, but I'll report back when it's confirmed.

She married someone who goes by the name of a demon? Chile we have gots to be more careful who we lay up with and marry out here lol.

People are sharing that he’s a member of an HIV positive singles group on FB.

I was wondering why the ex mentioned that she made him take an HIV test. I assumed it was because he was a liar and she didn’t take anything he said at face value but it still seemed random.

This is not the plot twist I was expecting. I hope both women are negative and in good health.

No, Legion is what she now calls him. Jerome is his actual name.

I watched the whole thing, and a big part of the story towards the ending was that Legion had become very ill and was losing weight rapidly, going from wearing a 3x to a large in less than a month. At the time she suspected cancer. She said that she doesn’t know for a fact what his illness was, but she thanks god for protecting her health, because of some things she has since heard. She then goes on to say that doesn’t want to speak on it further because it affects other women. I strongly suspected she was talking about him having HIV.

I’m imagining these people are the ones reading the cliff notes, because she takes full responsibility for her part. She goes out of her way to share the red flags that she ignored (sometimes intentionally), and gives very vulnerable explanations as to why she did it. What more do people want from her?

I only watched the first video or two. If there were details in 50-11th video I can’t blame anyone for missing it.

It's understandable if people didn't watch all of that. However, I do hold people accountable for crafting pointless think pieces condemning her solely based on a secondhand synopsis, when the full story is easily accessible. If you don’t have time to listen to her tell her story, don’t have time to trash her either.
