Glitch Pic My brother remembers having a 40-minute phone conversation with me last night that never happened. What the hell could have happened?
So this is pretty weird and I've never experienced anything like it before.
Last night, I was staying with my boyfriend at his place. My parents weren't aware of this. We had been fighting, and I was upset and didn't really want to talk to anyone. My parents called me at that time and I deliberately didn't answer. I also didn't call anyone else that night. My bf was with me the whole time and knows I wasn't making any calls.
Tonight, my mom called me like usual. At some point she casually asked me if I had called my brother last night.
I said no, because I hadn't.
She then told me that my brother had been in his room talking to someone for around an hour, and that the person sounded exactly like me. She assumed it was me and was just asking to confirm.
I laughed and said maybe he was talking to another girl and didn't want to tell her.
My mom then went to confront him about lying. My brother took the phone, annoyed, and asked me why I was pretending we hadn't talked. I kept insisting that we hadn't.
At this point I genuinely thought he was lying and trying to get me to cover for him. I told him he didn't need to lie and that Mom wasn't going to care if he had been talking to someone else.
He got upset and ended the call.
Then he texted me saying that Mom and I were pranking/gaslighting him together.
I told him I genuinely had NOT called him, and then he started describing the conversation.
He said we'd talked for around 40 minutes or more. He remembered us talking about my bf, my self-esteem and other personal topics. He remembered us talking about my career and worries about my future.
Also that I initially sounded sad/upset but became happier as the conversation went on. He recalled the general flow of the conversation, and said we talked about the kinds of things we normally talk about.
The weird part is these weren't random topics. They're things my brother and I genuinely discuss, and apparently the sequence of some of the topics was similar to those from the last actual call I had with him, to the point that he was wondering why I was saying the same things again.
At this point I called him because I felt like he genuinely wasn't joking.
He was audibly shocked that I had absolutely no memory of this conversation. At one point, he said something like "hold on, let me check" and cut the call.
When I called him back he said there was no call log even though he is sure he had that call with me. So there's no record of this call either on his phone, or mine.
So now
My mom was the FIRST person to bring up the supposed conversation. She independently heard my brother talking to someone for roughly an hour and thought the person sounded exactly like me.
My brother independently remembers having a long, completely normal conversation with me.
He remembers specific personal topics and my emotional state during the conversation.
I know I didn't call him. I had deliberately avoided talking to anyone that night, and my boyfriend was physically with me and knows I wasn't making calls.
Neither phone has a record of the supposed conversation.
Even if my brother was lying/pranking me for some reason, my mother is a very straightforward and simple person who would never lie to me about such things or participate in any kind of prank.
I genuinely cannot figure out how my mom could independently hear someone who sounded like me, while my brother remembers talking to me, when I wasn't actually talking to him and there is no call record. Someone please explain lmao
