Woman Invites Man She Met Online to Her Home, Then Finds His Photo at a Cemetery Before His Arrival — Story of the Day

Margaret, a lonely career woman, eagerly awaits Colin, a man she met online. Hours before his arrival, a friend’s call leads her to a nearby cemetery, where she is horrified to see Colin’s photo on another man’s grave. Is Colin really who he claims to be?

The sun streamed through Margaret’s pristine home as she cleaned, a routine that filled the void in her life. By forty-five, she had a successful restaurant, a beautiful house, and a nice car, yet personal happiness eluded her. Meeting Colin online brought hope, but she lied about her age, saying she was thirty. Despite nerves, she invited Colin to stay.

A call from her friend Alice, needing help at a cemetery, led Margaret to a grave with Colin’s photo. Confused and scared, she returned home. When Colin arrived, he didn’t match his photos. Apologizing, he confessed to using another man’s photo out of fear. Margaret admitted her own age lie. Realizing their mutual deceptions stemmed from insecurity, they decided to start anew, valuing honesty and connection.
