Men and women are capable of committing infidelity in their relationships. It’s the ugly part of falling in love. Some cheaters don’t get caught, but others get caught in the most unusual ways.
Delivery With a Heart

Ordering delivery is so darn convenient. But it’s much nicer when your significant other decides to surprise you with something they’ve picked up just for you. Let’s be honest: A nice pepperoni pizza is better than a box of chocolates or flowers. But, sometimes, things don’t work out the way you expected.
Backfire
When 23-year-old Kayla Speer tried to surprise her boyfriend with a delivery, she thought she would make him super happy. Her kindness backfired in a way she could never have foreseen...
The Thread
Using Twitter, Speer shared her story about how a simple sandwich delivery broke her heart. And it was all because she tried to be a nice girlfriend. But her gesture didn’t disappear into oblivion. The situation actually ended up opening her eyes...
Long Distance

Speer lives in West Burlington, Iowa, while her boyfriend was living a couple of hours away so he could attend college. They were in a long-distance relationship for five months, and she wanted to do something extra special for her significant other.
A Touching Idea
Speer’s heart was in the right place. She knew her boyfriend was stressed about finals back in April. And she thought a sandwich from sub shop would be just the fuel his brain would need...
A Kind Gesture
“I was at work one evening and thought I would do something nice for my bf and order him @jimmyjohns for dinner while he was studying for finals,” she wrote on Twitter. But the sandwich shop ended up delivering more than just a sandwich.
For a Guy

Speer told BuzzFeed News, "I called the Jimmy John’s in his city, and I said, ‘Hey, this is for the guy I’m dating,'" Speer told BuzzFeed News. But there was one tiny potential problem with her loving order.
Not There
Speer used her card, but she wouldn’t be there to sign the slip, so she wanted to confirm with the sandwich shop that her boyfriend would be able to sign in her place.

Speer went into lengthy detail on Twitter about how a sandwich delivery guy became her wingman, but the wingman was in for the biggest shock of his career so far. Speer’s gesture would end up unveiling the shocking truth.
On Its Way

Speer sort of ruined the surprise by texting her boyfriend, "Hey, foods on the way for you. Please leave a tip." But it was the delivery guy who was in for the surprise of his life, and she would be next.
Nap Time

She told BuzzFeed, "I didn't get a text back right away. But a little bit before, he’d said he was going to take a nap and then keep studying." Then she received a call, but it wasn’t from her boyfriend. Why was this unknown number calling her all of a sudden?
Who's Calling
Speer realized it was the delivery guy who was calling. She assumed it was either because her card had been declined or to let her know that the food was delivered to her boyfriend. But she was wrong...
He Saw Something

“We thought you should know that when we walked up to your boyfriend’s apartment, we were able to see inside, and we saw him with another woman naked on the couch," the delivery guy told Speer, essentially exposing her boyfriend’s cheating.
Clear View
Her boyfriend’s door had a large window that gave the delivery guy a clear view. But Speer couldn’t believe it, so she asked him a couple of questions to confirm he was in fact at her boyfriend’s place. After all, was this stranger someone she could trust?
That Awkward Moment
He explained to her, “Honestly, it was so awkward I just wanted to get out of there, so I just gave him the sandwich and left.” Once she realized it was her man the delivery guy saw, she gave her boyfriend a ring…
Liar

"I was like, 'Jimmy John’s just told me the situation,' And he tried to make up a lie, saying, 'It wasn’t me,' but it was." So, it started to look more and more like the delivery guy had told her the truth. Reality was sinking in for Speer.
More Questions
The questions she asked the delivery guy had left her upset, but she was grateful he had been honest with her when her man wasn’t. A few days later, she broke things off with her boyfriend. But there was someone she needed to thank once she realized that knowing the truth is much better than living a lie.
Good Guy Delivery Guy
Once Speer’s story about how the delivery guy exposed a cheater hit social media, people started praising the food chain for taking customer service to a whole new level. But the sandwich shop wasn’t done impressing Speer.
Best Offer Ever

On Twitter, Speer shared the chain’s amazing offer: “KAYLA!! I’d love to cater your breakup party! Let me know when and where! Please DM me your address and contact info and I’ll make it happen!”
Picking a Date
Speer reached out to the franchise and assured them that she’d let them know as soon as she figured out which day she planned to have the breakup party. Meanwhile, her story has reached the company’s higher-ups. To say they were excited about the story was the understatement of the year.
Customer Service
“We’re freaks about everything we do, from our products to our process. And customer service is no exception,” said John Shea, the sandwich franchise’s chief marketing officer. But the boyfriend wasn’t the only man Speer didn’t speak to again.
The Hero Hero

Speer doesn’t know who the delivery guy was, so she never got to speak to him again. But if she had the chance, she’d thank him. "Most people wouldn’t do what he did,” she said. “And that’s awesome that he did."
No Comment
Meanwhile, the sandwich shop Speer had used to order her ex-boyfriend's sandwich has remained silent. And according to BuzzFeed, an employee hung up on them when they reached out to them for comment. But what would you have done in the delivery guy’s place? Everybody seems to have a different opinion.
A Tough Spot
Speer and her friends have wondered what they would have done in the delivery guy’s place. Whatever you feel was the right thing to do, it’s safe to say that for Speer, knowing the truth definitely beats staying in a relationship that was based on lies.
