Im afraid someone i love may be a kleptomaniacI am so heart broken, I don’t know what to do or how to help him. I always had my suspicions about him because one night we was out and we both got a little drunk and I woke up and my money was missing, I was soooo upset but I couldn’t imagine him taking from me and being I wasn’t in my right state of mind, I let it go. Then another time, I invited him to Atlantic City with me and my best friend and we was having a blast, the next day my best friend is missing money, again I couldn’t imagine him doing anything like that, and being we was with a crowd, the possibilities were endless, so I let that one go again, while my best friend swore it was him who took it, I got defensive and said NOOO way. Almost a year had passed since both of these incidents and him and I have gone out and NOTHING Has happened, however a few months ago he went out on his own and ended up getting arrested for stealing from a girls purse, he denied it to me, however he ended up getting 3years probation behind this. Again, call me naïve, I used all the possibilities to convince myself he could NOT be doing these things. BUT last Friday, I invited him out with my coworkers and I, we were all having a blast, drinking, laughing, just having a great night. At the end of the night my friend goes to pay her bill and realizes all her money is missing, we all going crazy, trying to look around to see if anything fell on the floor and being my friend is well known at this place we was at, the manager told her she could look at the cameras to see who the thief was. I didn’t put two and two together but all of a sudden he wanted to leave, and being I wasn’t totally coherent, I said okay and we left. Shortly, thereafter I get a phone call that he was the one who robbed my friend and they caught him red handed. I just broke down in tears cause although the signs where there I MISSED them OR rather ignored them. I turned to him and went off, I couldn’t stop crying and he looked at me and I saw in his eyes at that very moment, he had a problem. I know this man, he is a great guy, whom I’ve known for a little over 7yrs. He has had a rough life but I know in my heart he doesn’t steal just to steal, I know something is seriously wrong with him. He dropped to the floor and told me he didn’t recall doing it (the cameras don’t lie), he in turn went to the atm and gave me the money I told him was missing. I left and went home, the next day he texted me swearing he doesn’t recall doing this, and that he is so sorry and more so for losing me. I came to work and did some research and he fits all the sign of Kleptomaniac. He doesn’t want to talk to me as he is so embarrassed, however I reached out to his sister and we are both so lost because we don’t know how to help him but we are so afraid of what will happened to him if we don’t try to help him. What do I do?

Re: Im afraid someone i love may be a kleptomaniacis there any advice anyone can offer me?
Re: Im afraid someone i love may be a kleptomaniacI would say that you need to drop him. Whether or not he is doing it subconsciously somehow (doubtful), I think trust is broken. I also have a feeling that the only way that he would give you the money back is as a front. He is decietful and he steals money. Drop him.
