Exactly feels like they jumped ship realizing the golden child would never make a turn around so let's support the kid that is doing financially well. It's all about the money!
Okay, I have real doubts this is a real story as many of the details just seem so far fetched, but there are some insane people in this world with truly solipsistic personalities. So, I guess anything is possible. I really understand your view. We cry out for vengence, but our Christian side must always win out. Being a Christian is persecution, and forgiveness of that persecution. In the same way Jesus forgave those who put him on the cross. LORD forgive them they know not what they do. That grace is awe inspire, but it is what we are called to do. However, when others threaten you with violence you have a right to defend yourself. We must again forgive them, but we all can protect ourselves. The call of a Christian is like nothing else in this world nothing is harder. And requires more dedication. But with Christ Jesus all things are possible.
OP is a doormat. OP should never have opened the door and told them the cops are on the way i suggest you leave and never come back. the only reason your failures as parents are apologizing is because they gave those 2 idiots so much money they are going to have to rely on you financially in the future
OP was actually lucky her ex cheated, her ex proved himself a no good incompetent man. Would have been a miserable marriage, she actually dodged a bullet. Still need to be wary about her parents and relatives, and take precautions just in case.
"lucky" is not the word I'd use for my own sister and fiance to sleep with eachother for months behind my back...I'd say "tragic" and "h0rr!fic". Definitely good she found out before the wedding but not "lucky" she didn't win the lottery...
Just wow! If the tables turned, would they have supported OP taking Melissa's boyfriend. I doubt it. Melissa is their only daughter unless they need something, and then OP counts as a daughter
NTA, This not revenge, this OP not being involved with them anymore and just move on, it’s karma coming for them for the betrayal they all did, not just Lucas and Melissa but to the family that supported this farce
Reasons to not give the money 1. Sister flashed her vag and stole OP’s Fiancé. 2. Family took Sister’s side in the debacle without giving a single thought for OP’s circumstances meaning they all probably already knew and OP was literally the last to know. 3. Sister and Ex are already in the financial sewer meaning their financial skills aren’t even up to bat with their business, casting major doubt on the viability of repayment. 4. You never lend money to family even under the best of circumstances, unless you have their guarantee of repayment IN WRITING.
The question I never see asked when a parent sides with the betrayer and expects the betrayed to let it go is to ask “how long did it take for you to forgive and get passed dad’s cheating? Oh, you didn’t know?” On the small chance there was cheating, they now get to parade that publicly. Most likely, they now have to show how they really feel about “it’s the past”.
Honestly all these stories on this channel sound the same it's the same self-help sounding stuff every time. I think they purposely add in am I the a whole thing even if the store probably doesn't exist on Reddit. The in conclusion part near the end especially gives it away that it's fake it's pretty laughable honestly.
Your sister and her fiance of husband are lucky that I wasn't your neighbor cause the cops would have been called the second he knocked the phone out of your hand
It's still the people who created her...that's not as easy to cut off forever, I agree that they don't deserve it but so long as she keeps her guard up and takes it VERY slow and cautiously and blocking them the moment they show any signs of toxicity again, gone like the wind...forever. My mom abandoned me and my sister age 8 and 10/cheated on my dad/ chose alcohol and drugs and strange men over her family, in and out of jail and was a toxic ab*s!ve m0nster for 2 decades of my life but she in the last 3 years FINALLY got sober/got a job for the first time in years being self sufficient with her own home/no men/MUCH nicer and no nonsense like the old days, she's still my mother and that's not a person you get to replace, the person who brought you into the world can't be replaced so if there's even a chance they have changed, I think she should follow her gut/heart but slowly and with a guard up proving they deserve the chance but ONLY one chance, leave forever otherwise. Upto her and I think your comment is cruel after what she's been through and I think she's tough as nails/ Your comment saying she likes drama is ridiculous AF also, she literally ghosted them all for 5 years just to avoid more drama....you sound like a gaslighter like her sister.
There are agressive people at your door sreaming, what should you do? call the cops or drive to them, step out your car so they can attack you...yeah op definetly choose wisely. 🤦♂
Knocking someone's phone out of their hands is not assault but it is battery and is still a serious crime. Also, by the looks of it, the parents are just getting old and realized they have to side with the child that can actually take care of them later. That's probably what they meant by "reevaluate many of their choices and relationships."
Melissa and Lucas are in trouble and need help. Glad to hear it. (Click). The only way OP can possibly be the AH is if she helped them. Although the option of demanding their homes as collateral and inevitably evicting them has a certain charm.
These stories have made me realize how AMAZING my family is... damn some people got some FUCKED UP family members, so insensitive, it's mind blowing!!!
more like the parents suddenly realized which daughter would be able to support them near the end of their lives and flipped before it was too late to secure future support.
If you’re going to loan sharks, because you can’t go to proper banks and whatnot… your business has already failed. Continuing to throw bad money after good… you deserve what you get.
You are a sad doormate. When they came after you at your f--king home you needed to fight back. I can see why every one walks all over you. You Let Them.
People who are 'doormats' have been walked on their entire lives. Their own families teach them not to stand up for themselves and they learn to be helpless in those situations.
I think the manipulative narcissistic homewreckers are personally much more...the fact that you think the person who got their heart ripped out by their own sister and fiance and is a kind person as the problem makes you look nuts. You sound just like her parents/sister in the story.
I'm only at 6:13 but this story has to be BS. Ain't no way a large group of people will stand by and support some bullshit like this the minute they learn of this ultimate betrayal. GTFOH
Oh yes another fake family drama story. Sounds like they took this one straight out of he who fights with monsters book. Jason asano, betrayed by his brother and his girlfriend and his family takes their side against him
This feels AI-ish. Not too much, either the author edited it or they trained the chat well, but it's there. I'm not mad, this is how AIs are supposed to be used, but if the author is reading this: next time consider the genre of your story. Reddit style stuff aren't this professionally structured. Parts are skipped and rushed, especially "hard" and "emotional" parts. Make it sound like a stream of consciousness rather than a narration.
Starting to notice which ones of these are real, or believable, and which are fake. The long winded ones with unnecessary amount of details seem like they’re the AI generated ones.
Op not blocking the family immediately was a mistake, in that it made the family think she was just being a brat instead of being completely serious, and so they never thought about what they’d done.
The question I never see asked when a parent sides with the betrayer and expects the betrayed to let it go is to ask “how long did it take for you to forgive and get passed dad’s cheating? Oh, you didn’t know?” On the small chance there was cheating, they now get to parade that publicly. Most likely, they now have to show how they really feel about “it’s the past”.
Mother first words out her mouth was a lie. Melissa and Luke didn't want me to ask, then show up demanding. They couldn't force her now there try to love bomb her for the money. They didn't know how terrible Melissa and Luke were REALLY REALLY the force is dark with me OP'S I "family"
Sure, I'll help. Open up the books for the business. If my accountants believe it can be saved, I will become the majority shareholder in the company. The previous management team will be immediately fired for gross incompetence.
