We all have that one friend who’s a little too insecure in their relationships, but this story takes it to a whole new level! A woman offered her guest bedroom to her friend and her boyfriend after they attended a play in the city. After a fun night of catching up and watching Netflix, the host’s injured leg began to hurt, so she massaged it to ease the pain. Little did she know, this would lead to a bizarre accusation and a demand for an apology.
