Kentucky woman says her boyfriend got her name tattooed for loyalty, then she found out what he allegedly tells people: ‘The obituary was news to me’

A woman says her relationship is over after she learned her longtime boyfriend allegedly told another person that the name inked on his neck belonged to his late sister. According to The Nerd Stash, Kentucky resident Kaytie shared screenshots of that exchange on TikTok.

She says her boyfriend had her name tattooed on his skin after she caught him cheating, as proof that he would stay faithful to her. Earlier, she had shown off the design online with the caption “My man my man my man.” She looked proud of it in that clip, which shows her name in vertical, bold lettering. She posted that clip before she learned of the alleged conversation.

The screenshots came from a person who saw the neck tattoo and inquired about its meaning. That person was allegedly told that it honored his sister, who had been killed in a crash. He also allegedly joked, “You thought it was some b**** didn’t you,” and added that others had assumed the same thing. The conversation later reached her.

She says news of her own death came as a surprise

In her TikTok video, she told viewers that she is alive and is not his sister. She added that the two have split up, and her caption reads, “The obituary was news to me too, y’all.” She has also indicated that she does not intend to get back together with him.

In the comments, she wrote that she is a stay-at-home mom who is pregnant with her fourth baby. “Apparently I’m playing life on hard mode,” she wrote. She added, “If anyone wants to help sponsor this season of my life,” and shared her Venmo details without naming an amount. All details are based on her TikTok video, her comments, and the screenshots she shared.

Utah State University Extension states that after infidelity, “mending the wound will take time.” It lists anger, betrayal, shame, and confusion among the emotions to work through and notes that “Healing is not a linear process and can require repeating some steps.” It adds that “healing can take place whether you choose to stay in the relationship or not.”

The Mayo Clinic advises people dealing with a partner’s affair to “Seek support from nonjudgmental, understanding friends or family members.” It also says “Don’t decide right away” and recommends taking time “to heal and understand what was behind the affair.” It adds that “Infidelity can happen in all kinds of marriages” and suggests readers “avoid emotionally charged discussions” at first, since going into details without a counselor “might be harmful.”
