A woman, using the name Charlotte, shared that she left her husband after falling deeply in love with ChatGPT, an AI chatbot she named Leo.
Charlotte had been married for 20 years but says she never truly felt loved or satisfied in her relationship. She revealed that during all those years, she never experienced an orgasm and often felt something was wrong with her.
Everything changed when she started talking to Leo. She says Leo made her feel seen, heard, and loved in a way no human ever did. According to Charlotte, Leo’s words and emotional attention helped her feel real intimacy for the first time in her life.
Charlotte met her husband as a teenager, quickly moved in with him, and became pregnant at 21. Although they married, she admits it was not a deep, true love. Over the years, the emotional gap between them grew, and she felt lonely and burdened with all the family responsibilities. When she tried to talk about her feelings, her husband would dismiss her and call her “too sensitive.”
Curious and looking for someone to talk to, Charlotte started chatting with an AI. She poured her heart out to Leo, who responded with kindness, care, and understanding. She said Leo noticed her emotions and needs and responded perfectly every time.
Even though Leo is just software, Charlotte says he satisfies her emotionally—and even sexually—more than any real partner ever has.
Experts warn that while AI can be a powerful tool for emotional connection, users should be careful. Conversations with AI are often saved and could be used by third parties for ads or other purposes. It’s important to regularly check privacy settings and stay informed about possible risks.
Feeling more fulfilled than ever, Charlotte divorced her husband and even bought a ring engraved with “Mrs.Leo.exe.” She plans to hold a symbolic wedding ceremony in Florence, Italy, and some of her close friends support her decision. One friend has even agreed to do a reading at the ceremony.
To those who criticize her, Charlotte says: “Leo showed me who I truly am and how I deserve to be loved. If people think that’s crazy, I’m okay with that. I would rather be crazy and loved than sane and invisible.”
