It’s amazing how many people share things on social media without thinking about the repercussions. It’s like they forget that these things are public and often “friends of friends” can get shared on things.
Sometimes, even the most innocuous pic can lead to a big downfall.
RELATED STORIES
Yulia’s day started like so many others — scrolling through Instagram.
And without searching for anything in particular, she stumbled across a picture that threw her world upside down and inside out.
And it’s not like it would be obvious to anybody but her.
But as long as the right eyes see something, the jig is up.
So what’s the deal?
Well, Yulia recognized one compromising picture on a strange woman’s Instagram immediately because it’s what she would see every night when looking out her bedroom window.
Which, of course, begs the question: How did the view from her own bedroom show up there?
So she decided to tug on that thread by commenting on the stranger’s pic: “Beautiful view from my husband’s bedroom window.”
Yulia’s next step was to browse through the strange woman’s Instagram to see what else she could find.
The woman, Vlada Abramovich, had many more interesting pics, including some of Yulia’s husband, Nazar Grynko.
When Yulia confronted her husband, he tried to shrug it off.
He tried to convince her she was making something out of nothing.
But Yulia’s not dumb.
And Vlada sure wasn’t on Nazar’s side.
Indeed, Vlada sure wasn’t going to help Nazar cover it up.
Rather than confirming his lies, she outright admitted their affair when Yulia asked her.
“She is his wife, not mine, what’s the problem?” Vlada reportedly said.
And to anyone who tells her she shouldn’t be sleeping with married men, she simply says “If I want to have sex, I’ll have it.”
Vlada has since taken her Instagram account private, but, sadly, that didn’t end Yulia’s nightmare.
Turns out, Nazar had been up to no good for quite some time, but with a defense you probably haven’t heard before.
Vlada was just the tip of the iceberg for Nazar.
And they couldn’t all be “friends’ girlfriends,” right?
The reason he gave is probably the weakest tea in all of Russia: he said he had “never been mentally unfaithful,” whatever that is.
He also claimed that he had told all the other women he was married.
Did he think Yulia wasn’t going to check the facts on that?
Because she did.
It’s not like his previous attempt to lie worked, so why did he bother trying?
Yulia tracked down the other women and then reached out for their sides of the story.
And not one of them knew Nazar was married.
Also unlike Vlada, they were all remorseful.
“The other girls were much more pleasant,” she told Russia’s Ren-TV, “one even crying on the phone to me, saying she had no idea he was married.”
And with all this playing out on her social media stream, Yulia suddenly found herself at the center of a national news story at one of the worst moments of her life.
But maybe some good could come from it?
So obviously, it’s over. Yulia and Nazar are headed for Splitsberg.
Yulia’s moving on, and she’s just thankful that she found out the truth before she and Nazar started a family.
She says that she doesn’t think Nazar will ever change, but hopes he can be happy if he finds a woman who can accept him for who he is.
Which is pretty amazing, when you think about it.
Yulia’s story served as an inspiration to many other Russian women, too.
“Many women supported me, posting that they were proud of my bravery, that I openly discussed it with irony and sarcasm, so now they are ready to get rid of their unfaithful men too,” she said.
And in the end, she feels she owes Vlada some thanks.
“You are an experienced woman who taught me a good lesson,” she said in a post.
Sounds like Yulia’s going to be okay, don’t you think?
