“I was dating this guy in high school and he dyed his hair in this weird cheetah print. Something about that dye job changed him. Not over time, instantly. He went from being a normal guy to ‘I am too alternative for words’. At lunch one day, he took my hand and said I needed to accept him for the new person he was, which I guess was a cheetah or something, so I told him I had to set him free. It was a super strange day.”
2. It came in a dream

“One time my ex (then girlfriend) called me in the middle of a workday and [she was] super angry. I asked her what was wrong, but she just wouldn’t stop screaming at me. After a while, she calmed down and told me she was breaking up with me because I called her last night and told her I was cheating.
This was strange because 1) I did not call her, and 2) also was not cheating. She wouldn’t believe me and told everyone around. After a week she comes back to me and apologises. Turns out she’s had a very realistic dream. I did not get back with her. ”
3. Another dream prediction

“My ex dumped me because she had dreams of me cheating on her but in reality, I wasn’t cheating at all. She would spend the day being a total bitch for something I never did. She would give me the cold shoulder and she wouldn’t let me hug or kiss her. Eventually, she dumped me and claimed the dreams were recurring, so it had to mean I was cheating on her.”
4. Freeing the birds

“In middle school, I’m riding the bus home with my ‘girlfriend’ and we were awkwardly holding hands and then her stop came up. She looks at me, grabs my other hand, kisses my cheek, says, ‘You are a cage and I’m a bird. This is over.’ And then she walked away. That was the last time I conversed with her. It was hella strange, in hindsight.”
5. The steak that never was

“My friend played ‘Single Ladies’ by Beyonce on his phone, grabbed his soon-to-be ex-girlfriend’s hand and put it up in the air when the line came up. He held it up for like seven seconds and walked off. It was incredibly hard not to laugh out loud.”
