We share our most joyful and tragic moments with our friends and confide in them our deepest secrets. Yet, even those closest to us might keep significant aspects of their lives and identities hidden. In this compilation, we present some truly jaw-dropping facts people have discovered about their friends, which they have decided to share with the internet.

I’ve worked with Alexa for seven years, and we became good friends. She’d been trying for a baby with her hubby. She finally got pregnant but miscarried at 8 months.
One day, an old co-worker was visiting, and when I mentioned Alexa’s situation, she turned pale and said, “Is this a joke? Don’t you know that Alexa is actually a transgender woman? How could she be pregnant?”
I was shocked. I’ve seen Alexa every day, and our desks are right next to each other. I felt betrayed that she would lie to me and even show me photos of her fake belly.

I had two people who I thought were really good friends. One day, I was hanging out with one of them, and we were about to go out, so she was fixing her makeup. Being too busy to text our other friend about our plans, she asked me to do it.
While texting, I accidentally scrolled up into their previous messages and saw them talking absolute trash about me. They were making fun of things I had said, sharing my pictures and mocking them, and just all sorts of mean-spirited stuff. I never brought it up.
Thankfully, we later had a falling out, and I don’t associate with them anymore. © margaret0619 / Reddit
