I’ve been talking to someone online for a month and now the story around his hospitalization, cousin, and other accounts doesn’t add up what do you think?
I started talking with Milan after he sent me messages on TikTok, initially thinking that I was his cousin Senya (my name is Sana). Eventually, we started talking, joking, and building some kind of connection.
Very quickly, Milan started using affectionate nicknames and sometimes showed behaviours that I and my friends interpreted as jealousy. He himself sometimes seemed to view certain behaviours as disrespectful or as something negative.
At one point, he told me about his father's death. From what he told me, he was not close to his father, but his father was violent to him and he had a restraining order. His father supposedly died in prison.
Later, after an argument between us, Milan suddenly told me that he was leaving for Mexico. During that time, we still talked a little, and he introduced me to his cousin Aitana. I found her funny and interesting, and we had good conversations.
Milan presented himself as Russian-Mexican. Aitana presented herself as Mexican-Spanish. Later, I learned that she had gone to Russia, where Milan was also staying. Ithiel, presented as Milan's cousin, was also supposed to arrive during that period.
Ithiel presented himself as someone with multiple European origins and as someone living in Liechtenstein. He talked about a very wealthy family, a wine estate, a large house that looked like a castle, and a complicated relationship with his family.
After a while, Milan started replying less. I sent him a message saying that if he didn't want to talk anymore, he could just tell me. At that point, Ithiel answered instead of Milan.
He explained that Milan was hospitalized. At first, I had difficulty believing it because I had already experienced situations where people used similar excuses.
Ithiel gave very little information at first and sometimes joked in a way that made the situation feel strange. He mentioned Milan being in a serious condition, including a story involving ventilation and a coma.
Aitana later had access to Milan's account and told me her version. According to her, she had an accident with Ithiel's motorcycle and hit Milan while she was learning to drive. Milan was hospitalized because of this accident.
One thing that stood out to me is that Ithiel and Aitana's versions matched on some points, especially the fact that the motorcycle belonged to Ithiel.
And after that, Aitana, through Milan's phone started a secret conversation and started to talk about Ithiel's family, things involving blood, castle, satanism, things like that.
However, some inconsistencies appeared:
\- Ithiel mentioned Milan had been hospitalized for around three days;
\- Aitana said it had been closer to one week;
\- some details seemed very dramatic or difficult to verify.
Aitana also told me many things about Ithiel's family: a very wealthy family in Liechtenstein, strange behaviors, family tensions, and unusual events. Some details seemed precise, but others were so extreme that I didn't know what to think.
I continued talking with Ithiel on Telegram. I noticed several things that made me question the situation:
\- his Telegram account seemed registered in Poland;
\- Milan's Telegram account also seemed linked to Poland;
\- Aitana's Instagram account also appeared linked to Poland even though she said she was Mexican;
\- Ithiel wrote “Liechstein” instead of “Liechtenstein”, and Aitana also used that spelling.
I also noticed similarities in their habits:
\- moments where messages were read, then the person disappeared before replying;
\- connection patterns that sometimes seemed similar;
\- some ways of responding by Ithiel that reminded me of Milan.
At the same time, Ithiel's personality seems different from Milan's. He is much more sarcastic, distant, and provocative. He often says he doesn't care, but still continues to have long conversations with me.
He also told me that Aitana probably changed the online option on telegram herself, and if it wasn't her, he would not know who did it.
With Ithiel, we talked about many subjects:
\- religion;
\- psychology;
\- books;
\- painting;
\- wine;
\- languages;
\- family.
He gave me personal details and sometimes showed concern despite his cold attitude. For example, he checks whether I have eaten or whether I am okay, even though he expresses it in a harsh way.
More recently, Milan's phone supposedly became inaccessible. Ithiel explained that the phone had run out of battery and that the charger was in his car because his mother had taken it. After that, Milan's account changed its online status display, which seemed suspicious to me.
Today, I am left with several possibilities:
Everything is true: Milan is really hospitalized, Ithiel and Aitana are real people, and the inconsistencies come from a complicated situation.
Some parts are true, but some details have been exaggerated or dramatized.
One person is playing multiple roles, or some accounts are connected.
I do not have definitive proof either way. I mainly have many details that seem to connect, but also several elements that feel strange.
I don't really know what to think of that story, and I'd like some help...
