Have you ever faced a third wheel that is so calculated, so spiritually off-center, they not only want your partner, they wanted your entire life?
I’m not talking about the usual meddling friend or an overbearing in-law.
I mean someone truly sinister, a woman crushing on your partner, a so-called friend, a coworker, a relative, someone who, for some unknown reason, seems to want your life.
She imitates you, acts like your number one fan while secretly scheming behind the scenes. She’s close enough to know the cracks in your world, and strategic enough to slide in when you’re most vulnerable.
I’ve seen it happen. I’ve felt it happen. And recently, I met a woman whose story still gives me chills.
The Hidden Copycat Rival
Her marriage had its ups and downs like many do, but nothing too far gone. At least, that’s what she thought.
Then one argument turned into a cold war. Her husband became a stranger, hostile, dismissive, and unreachable. Within weeks, he was gone, he had moved out and refused to see her or their kids.
She was confused.
What had gone so wrong that he would abandon his entire family?
Then the nightmare unraveled.
She was locked out of bank accounts, her credit cards stopped working, her car was repossessed. She was forced to file for divorce.
That’s when the truth began to surface.
Her husband had moved in with a former coworker, a woman who had always been around, seemingly harmless. The same woman had now quit the job and when she tried reaching out to this woman for clarity, she was met with a wall of silence.
It wasn’t until a mutual friend spilled the tea that the full picture emerged, and it was diabolical.
She told her the so called co-worker had long been competing with her in secret. She copied her hairstyle, mimicked her fashion sense, even her way of speaking. And they all assumed it was a coincidence.
Until it wasn’t.
This “friend” had been mimicking the wife for years. But no one noticed. Or worse, they noticed and said nothing.
Enter the Spirit World
Apparently, the husband once faced serious issues at work that threatened his job.
And guess who stepped in to “help”? The same co-worker.
She claimed to know a powerful spiritualist who could help. She didn’t go with him to the spiritualist, but she facilitated it.
And right after that, everything changed.
The woman realized that was the moment her marriage cracked open, and something darker had crept in.
Over time, her health deteriorated. She was constantly ill, and no diagnosis ever made sense.
Their third child died in a freak accident. The husband stopped going to church.
He quit his job and became dependent on the woman who “rescued” him. Started gambling, sold properties, and wiped out their life savings.
It was as if a dark cloud had swallowed their home.
By the time the divorce was finalized, they were bankrupt.
She’d lost everything—her health, her child, her family, her home.
And the coworker?
She had moved on, to another man she dated when they all worked together.
Her ex-husband was left in pieces: broken, bitter, and spiritually depleted.
She blamed herself for not seeing it sooner, for not severing ties with the woman early enough.
“Maybe I should’ve exposed them sooner,” she told me.
“Maybe I should’ve made a scene. Maybe I could’ve saved us.”
But could she?
I’ve dealt with a third wheel so dark, so spiritually invasive, it nearly took me out.
And here’s what I’ve learned…
You Can’t Fight Spiritual Evil with Logic
You cannot fight a diabolical third wheel with logic, confrontation, or righteous rage.
You can only fight them in spirit.
And even then, it may not work, because sometimes, this isn’t about you. It’s about the lessons each soul must learn.
These people are allowed into our lives for a reason. They come to teach us something. For us, for our partners, even for our children.
When the lesson isn’t complete, the evil lingers. But once it’s learned? The storm begins to pass. Effortlessly.
However, these spiritual parasites thrive in environments of distrust, secrets, ego, and drama. They grow when couples are divided. They feast when boundaries are blurred.
And if your partner isn’t transparent or refuses to believe you, then unfortunately, the portal’s already open.
Which is why the only real protection is this: No access, to your home, partner, and children. Not even to your damn coffee mug.
Both partners must also be vigilant, transparent, and united.
The husband, especially, must honor his role as the spiritual protector of the family. And when he doesn’t, the entire household is at risk.
When You Must Walk Away
Use your discretion. But, if your partner chooses not to see the signs but defends the third wheel, if he refuses to cut ties, then you must choose yourself.
People will call you bitter. They’ll say you’re jealous, overreacting, and insecure.
Let them talk.
They weren’t there when death walked through your home. You were.
If you feel it in your gut, you don’t need permission, you need a plan.
Because sometimes the cost of staying is your sanity, your soul, or your child’s life.
And if, one day, that man comes crawling back, that’s a story for another day.
Reflection: What We’re Really Up Against
Sometimes, the “other woman” isn’t just a woman.
She’s a spirit, a lesson, or a karmic test.
And not every battle is meant to be fought in public. Some must be fought in prayer, in silence, or with your feet walking out the door.
And yet, we carry so much shame for not “doing more.”But what if protecting your peace was the most spiritual act of all?
And while it may seem like these diabolical people simply move on to their next victim, it’s only because God, in His mercy, gives them enough rope, long enough to learn their lesson or hang themselves.

I have encountered a third wheel more diabolical than what is depicted here. Unfortunately, my husband passed away despite all my efforts to safe him from her. Men don’t learn and sometimes the illusion never disappears. It was a tragic ending for him, and she moved on without any remorse. She didn’t even care to morn about him.
I’m so sorry for your loss, and thank you for sharing.
