So, yeah, I totally screwed up big time. Me and my fiance, Jess, been together 4 years, engaged for 1. Everything was great, we was planning our wedding, picking venues and all that. But then I got sucked into crypto, specifically Solana. I thought I was gonna be some genius investor, you know?

It started when I saw some X posts about memecoins, that they are like super fast, cheap fees, blah blah. I’m not rich, but I had like 10k saved up for the wedding. I figured, why not throw 5k into those coins? Make a quick buck, surprise Jess with a fancier honeymoon. I didn’t tell her, cause I wanted it to be a surprise.

Big mistake. i lost everything in the first few weeks. My 10k was gone. I was freaking out, couldn’t sleep. Jess noticed I was acting weird, kept asking what’s wrong. I didn’t wanna tell her I blew our wedding fund, so I lied, said it was work stress.

She found out anyway. I left my laptop open, and she saw the trading app, the red numbers, the whole mess. She flipped out, screaming how I gambled our future without even telling her. I tried to explain, said I’d make it back. She wasn’t having it. Said I broke her trust, acted like some sneaky addict. She gave me back the ring, packed a bag, and left to her mom’s.

That was 2 weeks ago. She’s barely talking to me, says she needs space.

TL;DR: I secretly blew our wedding fund on crypto, lost it all, and my fiance left me cause I lied about it.
