Japanese Man Gets Hit On By Random Girl At A Bar, Ends Up With “Scary” Experience
In 2018, Twitter (X) user @toshibou enraptured thousands of Japanese netizens with his short but interesting story of deception.
He walked down memory lane and brought up a “scary” instance from 2007. The man remembered going to a bar to relax after a long, cold day. It was here where he was suddenly approached by a random woman.
I was drinking at a bar, and this girl I didn’t know said hi to me.

冷える夜なので怖い話するね
バーで飲んでたら女の子に声掛けられ、しばらく談笑しながら一緒に飲んでたの。
そしたら流れで夜のお誘いされたけど、当時彼女居たので無理ッスと断ってすぐ店を出たの。
帰宅後、彼女からメール来て「信じてたよ」と書いてあったの。
バーの子は彼女の妹さんだったの。— としぼう (@toshibou) January 30, 2018
She eventually propositioned him, boldly asking if he wanted to go home with her.
So we started chatting, and ended up drinking together. Then, as we were talking, she asked me to spend the night with her.

Since he was taken at the time, he did not entertain the thought of a one night stand with the stranger. He remembered his vows of fidelity to his girlfriend and easily asked the woman in front of him to leave.
At the time, I had a girlfriend, so I told the woman there was no way I’d spend the night with her and left the bar soon after turning down her invitation.

The plot twist? It turned out that this scene was pre-planned. The man was sent an email from his girlfriend admitting that she set up the entire encounter. She declared that she was proud of him for not cheating with the girl at the bar, eerily adding that she could tell he was a trustworthy boyfriend.
Then, once I got home, I got an email from my girlfriend, saying, ‘I knew I could trust you.’

This creepy encounter was not enough for him to instigate a break-up, however. He mentioned later in the thread that they eventually parted ways only after he found out she had cheated on him.
そういう面は気にならない程度だった記憶

It turned out that she was the one who couldn’t be trusted after all.
