I always knew he used SnapChat to talk to women and hide things. He thought he was so smooth about it and always made me feel like I was crazy. I’ve now learned that it was even more disgusting than I thought. These screenshots were given to me by my daughter’s best friend. It appears that Michael was snapping her VERY inappropriate sexual things while she was visiting in late July 2020- when she was only 15 years old! For reference this was about two or three weeks before we started having problems.
If he was sending this to a child that I know, I hate to imagine the other disgusting things going on in his head. I mean I know now that he was and will always be a cheater and generally revolting human but this?!? I never imagined him to talk sexually minors but then again, now that I think back on all of his stories, I wouldn’t put it past him. Of course, I can’t do anything about it now but I’m going to let it live here for all the world to see and decide for themselves.
This site was created after a breakup. You probably figured this out already. A question I’ve been asked is why is still exists after all the dust has settled. The simple answer is that it exists for me. When I wrote all of this, I was mentally and emotionally depleted. The man I loved and my children loved and who claimed to love me forever had not only betrayed me in awful ways but had also lied to nearly everyone I knew about me. He then tried to sue me. He took me to court for a protective order. He even got my best friend to question me- that’s how manipulative he is. He didn’t just break up with me- he then tried to use and when I put an end to that he tried to destroy me.
This blog was the only outlet I had for the truth. Since no one believed me, I decided to add texts, recording, etc. I was hoping that Sember, the woman he cheated on after me, might actually see it and come to her senses. I’ve since learned that she doesn’t care that he cheated on every woman he has ever been with including her. He has her totally engaged in his lies.
Are you afraid of getting sued?
Honestly, nope. When he made me go to court for his bogus protective order, I even asked the judge about it. He said that it’s only defamation if it’s untrue. Since this is all true, I have no reason to be afraid. It’s also why he has never tried to pursue me for it. He knows he would lose a defamation case and by doing so all the people he lied to, including his current girlfriend, would have to admit that I was telling the truth. He won’t risk that.
Will you ever take it down?
Nope. Michael’s friends, family and Medspeed coworkers deserve to know who is really is.
Why? Haven’t you moved on?
Yes I have moved on. I have a wonderful partner who makes Michael look like a joke. That said, I keep this up because I deserve to be heard. Too often we silence women or label them as crazy bitches just for telling the whole truth. Men shouldn’t get to escape consequences or have their behavior excused just because they are men.
Will you ever talk to Michael again?
Not likely but not by choice. I would gladly listen to Michael if he wanted to clear his karma up a bit. I definitely wouldn’t let him back in my life but I can still forgive him. However, that is a road way too high for someone like him to travel. He even took me to court because I emailed him looking for resolution. He made up stories and hired his lawyer just to get a judge to say I can’t email him rather than have a conversation with me. So, given that childish maneuver, I highly doubt he will be reaching out to own up. He could’ve done that in 2020 and saved us both a lot of drama.
Update: Sember, the woman he cheated with and then cheated on is now Sember Chappell. Yep. Maybe she is cool with an open marriage? Who knows.
I’ll be taking bets on how long it lasts. I’m positive he is already cheating on her. I’m guessing it will be a max of five years before she sees the light like I did and he screws her and her kids over too. Karma comes for everyone. I’ll be over here with my popcorn waiting for the show…..
I’m not even sure when the lies started. My best guess is that they were always there and simply grew. I’ll start my timeline in Late April 2020. This is when Michael Chappell and I got back together after a nasty break up in March. I had come to a point post-breakup where I was fine. we hadn’t talked and started dating other people. But then he could sense me moving on and came for me. Like a fool, I fell for it.
It took all of four weeks for me to discover he was cheating on me. I found out because a woman he was trying to get to meet him messaged me. I questioned her honesty at first but then she sent me the texts. She even sent me a video he sent her of him masturbating. Some of the most lewd text he had sent her while I was laying right next to him. I immediately told him I was done.
I wish that had been the end of it but it wasn’t. He played on my sympathy and begged me to take him back.
And I fell for it hook, line and sinker. He spent the next several months playing therapy and doing whatever he could to convince me that he was the real deal. Little did I know he was still talking to a woman he dated while we were apart even though he swore he wasn’t. Little did I know he told my best friend that I was talking about her to her abusive ex behind her back. Little did I know he was setting me up as a villain so he could victimize himself when his lies would eventually overflow.
After what I was made to believe was a great summer, August created a shift. Although I kept my own house, Michael Chappell had allowed me and my four kids to basically move into his home. We called it a trial run. I would later find out that he would tell people I just moved in forcefully. Kind of a ridiculous concept for someone with four kids, right?
Since so many people seem to believe that ridiculous premise, I decided to share some evidence that he was not only onboard with us being there but he helped me in setting up rooms for all my girls AND sent documents for the school including a residency affidavit so the girls could attend school there.
Here are some texts where I was talking about doing the basement and girls rooms and he was all for it. Keep in mind this would be just a week before he pulls the rug out from not only me but my four children:
NEXT UP we have emails where he himself sent me some of the needed docs to register the kids for school.
So anyone can see that no one forced him. We talked about these things and did them together like any normal couple. I had no clue what would come next!
August 30th, 2020…. that was the day that Michael destroyed me and hurt my girls. From starting a life together and constant “I love you’s” to a sudden breakup. That day he said he is done and suddenly departed for Indianapolis.
Remember that girl he said he stopped talking to? Well, I can’t confirm this but I suspect she had something to do with this sudden shift and exit to Indy.
I was devastated but that was only the beginning. There was so much more torture to come…..
The heartbreak was unbearable not just because of my own but watching my children be thrown away like trash was unspeakable.
What I later learned is that Michael lied to everyone about how this all went down. First he claimed I forcefully moved myself into the house but then he claimed he had to evict me and hire movers to move me out……. smh.
I tried to reason with him when he demanded I move myself and my four children out just a few days after the breakup. Days…. not weeks. I had more furniture than I could move on my own not to mention my poor daughter would have to change schools just weeks after school started and my older two needed different buses. Then there’s my youngest who is on the autism spectrum and I knew the transition would be tough for her.
He was cold and uncaring. These kids loved him for two years and he couldn’t care less about transitioning them with any kind of ease. So I fought. I fought for myself. I fought for them and managed to get two and a half weeks to get it all done. It was surreal to deal with it all. I felt so worthless. I felt like such a failure. I thought about ending my own life but I love my kids too much to hurt them like that.
So I sucked it up and started packing. I started preparing my house. Then Michael came and helped me move. We hugged when he put my last box in the garage and I thought we were being pretty mature about it all.
Little did I know that he was spinning lies behind my back to make me look like someone he had to force out. I can’t think of a time that I’ve been treated with so little humanity…. well except for what would come at me in December. I’ll get to that.
For the finale of our story I will detail how things went from your typical bad breakup to a bad Telenovela.
After moving out in September, we exchanged texts. Some full of anger. some forgiveness. Some friendly. Typical breakup stuff. Grief is a process. We didn’t go more than a week or so without a text exchange but didn’t physically see each other.
Then I received messages on October 5th, 2020 from a friend of a friend who had met Michael on Facebook dating and talked mad shit about me. I was FURIOUS. So much so that I sent him an email. When he tried to lie to me and defend his comments I event made a PDF of the screenshot from their convo with notations and sent it to him:
Even after that he denied it. He said it wasn’t the whole story but I know it 100% was.
I almost wish I had not said anything because this opened the door. We had our first phone conversation in a month because he wanted to apologize. Like a sucker, I accepted that. Suddenly he was asking to chat with the girls because he felt bad for putting them out:
Then he started wanting to mow my lawn again and getting attitude if I got someone else:
Then he started seeing the girls:
I thought this was great fr them because they missed him. Little did I know that as soon as he noticed I was moving on he would try to move back in on me…….
So we kept texting the same way for a couple of weeks and then he remembered a bet we had about the election:
This was the first time he brought up sex. I figured he was joking. Then on November 2nd he said he wasn’t feeling well and I got weak:
So yeah I slept with him. I mean no big deal right? Lots of people bounce back to their ex now and again.
BUT it got so much worse…….
So kept sleeping together until one night I left without having sex with him. I just couldn’t keep doing it. Then he exploded at me. I told him I was done. Then he left me a voicemail that my dumbs couldn’t not respond to:
I fell for this hook, line and sinker. We would spend the next month having sex, hanging out together and even hanging out with my kids. He even promised to hang with me on Thanksgiving because I have no family but of course, he lied about that.
Here is a gallery of some texts highlights showing how much we exchanged:
Then just to confirm here are some screenshots WITH apple timestamps showing and another voicemail from 12/3/2020. As anyone can see I was there during holiday/football season but it gets worse…..
So then things took the worst turn. Remember that girl he said he had stopped talking to back in April????? Her name is Sember and on December 7th I found out that he actually never stopped talking to her. Not only that but he had been dating her and not I was the other woman!!!!
I called him out on that day because I knew he was leaving for Indy. He spun lies about how she isn’t his girlfriend and they “only talk”. Then he left for Indy.
The next day I actually came down with Covid so I had a very high fever, Even so I couldn’t get over the feeling that he was lying. I called him and told him that he needed to do the right thing. He needed to tell her. He begged and pleaded with me. He asked me to wait until after his therapy appointment and then we could talk.
I did. Then he never called. I texted him and he said he was at Top Golf with guys from work. I had a feeling he was with her and called him out. Then he went low.
He made his entire family block me on social media. He spun lies to everyone so no one would believe the truth because he knew I would try to expose it. He even had his lawyer threaten me the next day with a protective order. None of that scared me.
So as I was sick in bed with Covid, I downloaded all out=r texts and gathered evidence, Then I emailed them to Sember and interested parties. I’m not sure what lies he told exactly but I received a threatening email back from Sember telling me how she would defend the man she loved, etc. All I could think was “You poor dumb bitch” but I left it alone.
I found out later that he told everyone I manipulated the texts and fabricated things. Pretty impressive considering the PDF was dozens of pages and I was dying from Covid in my bed.
At the end of the day people don’t really want the ugly truth.
There’s more to the story. He ended up suing me. He told many more lies about me. Sember is still with him because he is just that good of a liar. Some will say that putting all of this online is petty orn immature but I don’t care. To be fair- I did email Michael multiple times requesting a face-to-face conversation to find closure and forgiveness for what he did to me. He never responded.
This is my closure. This is me setting the record straight. Not for other people but for myself.
I was a wonderful partner. I loved him with everything I had. I didn’t deserve to be drug through the mud. I know that now.
