Untold: The Girlfriend Who Didn't Exist

"👍🏾👍🏾 This 2-part doc hooked me, & I was engaged the entire time. I remember this story well, just because Manti Te’o was in the running to be the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner at the same time as Texas A&M’s “Johnny Football” 🏈 I can remember both players being deserving of the Heisman, but to see Te’o’s achievements & character ripped to shreds as a result of this egregious crime committed against him was heartbreaking 💔 In no way, did this nice kid & his family ever deserve this 😞 He & his parents are good people, & even more amazing is how Te’o has remained gracious in the face of adversity."

" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What a crazy story! I almost feel like it’s more about how extreme religiosity and cloistering can result in a personality that is incredibly naive and overly trusting. He’s such a sweet person though who didn’t deserve what happened and the very unfair fallout. "

"This gotta be one of the craziest bizarre elaborate catfishing stories I’ve ever heard of. I still don’t quite comprehend how he didn’t know what was going on. "

"What a sad story for everyone involved. It’s hard to fully blame the catfisher. But what happened to the one who was catfished is so sad. He didn’t cheat in his sport and yet he was villainized as such. His greatest crime is being young and naive and trusting. "

"Wow. I am glad that he was able to tell his story and clarify things. One has to remember, that this was during the early days when catfishing was not a known thing. Sure there were a lot of red flags, but he was very preoccupied with his football career so that provides some explanation. A very interesting documentary that is worth watching. "

"I really liked this. I thought I knew the whole story but I didn’t. "

"I couldn't understand how somebody could come up with a complex fictional character. It hurt so many people and really was a dangerous idea. "

"Whaaat!"

"Really enjoyed this. Crazy catfish story."

"Such a crazy story! It’s disturbing how someone can so selfishly destroy another persons life and toy with their feelings so casually. "
