Update 1: (UPDATE) Family that left me on the streets at 16, now 30 yrs later want to apologize and make up for lost time. First I want to thank everyone for their kind words and advice. I wasn't looking for advice, just wanted a place to share my story. To those that gave me credit for overcoming everything, thank you, however the wife thinks she deserves most of it, lol. And in all honesty, she does. To those that think this is fake. It's reddit, I get it, it is what it is. Most things have to be taken with a grain of salt. I shared my story, I can't make you belive me. But that's ok, it my story resonates and helps other know they can survive then I'm happy with that and that's all that matters . Ok for the update. Gonna post most of the original email as a lot of you have requested, kept out some deep personal info but majority of it is there. Might have to break it up due to character limit. Plus a response with the help of my wife. And also the help of others who made suggestions, which is good because I'm not that great at putting down in words how I feel without coming off looking dumb. She was able to make me sound less dumb. lol Taking the family to the lake for the weekend to recharge and leave this all behind me. Thanks again to everyone. Final update: (FINAL UPDATE) Family that left me on the streets at 16, now 30 yrs later want to apologize and make up for lost time. Hey everyone, it's been a hot minute since I've stopped in and updated you all. First, what to thank everyone who's still been reaching out and commenting on my post. So just have a final update for you all. I know a lot of you worried about my former family reaching out after I asked them to basically let me live my life in peace. But thankfully all has been quiet. I think my response made it clear they weren't family anymore and decided to accept it. Outside of that, everything has been good. Actually more than good. Found out we are having a baby Boy!! Although this wasn't planned, we are super excited as are the girls. Not gonna lie, I'm a bit nervous. I think my wife can tell, she just keeps telling me I'm a great dad and not to worry. And yeah, after this one, we are done and I'll be going in for the snip. In the words of Sergent Murtaugh "I'm too old for this sh*t" 😆 Just wanted to leave you guys with a little Dad advice. Work hard, but stay humble. Never forget how hard you worked to get where you are today. Never forget who you are, is so much greater than what you do.
I'm more inclined to have a little bit of revenge and rub your wonderful successful life in their faces. For sure. That your father has missed out on his grandchildren. But would give a bit of grace to the step-sister that reached out, she was not to know better.
The father is worse then the step brother IMO Any parent that treats their kid like that after marriage is a peice of shit, your kids are the first love any woman that comes in after needs to realise she comes second Edit: goes for both women and men, I only said woman due to the circumstances of the video
They only reached out because Mark (who married Lisa, btw) let it slip during one drunken rambling that he was the one that set OP up because he was jealous and wanted Lisa
@@mini.Me7777 well, she was vulnerable and heartbroken, and Mark stepped in being the "knight in shining armor" to console her, so i don't think its a matter of why she dated him but how that relationship came to be.
@@am80ma I didn't ask why she dated him or even how could she date him. I simply said its gross. I also think you are giving way too much credit to her being vulnerable and heartbroken. She broke up with him and was disgusted by him, that doesn't make you vulnerable and it doesn't make you jump into a relationship with the persons step-brother. It certainly doesn't make you marry them or still be with them 30 years later.
I don't even understand what the fuss was about of clothes being in his drawer. If they would have found him naked in his stepsisters bedroom, sure, that's serious. But clothes? I'm a mom of 3. I get tired and confuse clothes and put them in the wrong closet all the time. And if the stepbrother who doesn't get along says stuff like he stares at the girl, pay attention yourself. Does your son do that? And even if he does, don't just make a teenager homeless. Horrible family. So glad he found and made a better one.
Delete the email and leave the past behind! 😉 Why did it take some 30 years for them to come to their senses? Why did it take some 30 years not to sit down and think it out that her son, his stepson, was NOT the weirdo??!! 🤨🤨🤨 😒😒😒 😞😞😞 😡😡😡
If you make contact with them, you may be tempted to get revenge on Mark. This in my opinion will not bring you happiness, and it may bring you nothing but misery. I recommend that you delete the email, and forget about them, since you deserve better than the way you were treated.
Don't delete the email, it might come in handy dandy randy if they ever try to deny anything in the future, instead I'd advise ignoring them and look into taking it into court if they go too....pushy about it..... as i have heard similar stories and they likely only want to cause trouble...
Still tho... he doesn't deserve the shit his dad put him through.... unless he is actually a creep and the story is fake... if so then yeeeaaahhh, this dude deserves terrible things, like an eternity in hell!
It's the fact that people seem to automatically believe the shit. Why is it easier to believe that someone is a monster like that instead of the person who obviously has a reason (not a good one) to lie about it?
IN THE PHILIPPINES the people who experienced being in "A HAPPY FAMILY" especially the "OLD ONES" will always say, "THEY'RE STILL YOUR FAMILY, JUST FORGIVE THEM" even though you are being abused, intentionally abandoned and SA by your parents.
What i can see is the OP father will die alone in nursing home with full of regrets. He kick the only bio child to the curb and for the rest of the life he will regret everything he done to his son.
Leave the past behind.great choice of words. If the words SB mark spoke and emily didn't support you it seems they can't leave it and are speaking how "bad ass" they arewalk away forget about them ever are still.alive.I hope your wife has a good family.
Like what is wrong with these parents they're just followers under the influence of their new lovers like damn I'm sorry that happened to you honestly do not reopen that old wound because your parents and your step siblings ain't shitt
Live the past behind I did I feel no guilt .these people do not deserve you the people the been true you struggle deserve to be whit you the one the left you behind they deserve the same live you life whit the love of you life
I would of just told the family. "I'm no longer your son you killed him the moment you left him. You are all dead to me and I hope our paths never cross. Farewell and hope you can live with your choices you made long time ago" then block them then delete the email
For yourself, forgive them but leave the past in the past... including them. You could have been dead for 30 years and they wouldn't have known or cared.
Tell them you want to meet up, make it the most inconvenient time and place for then and if they want to change tell them you won't meet up. Then dont show up.
funy didnt hear anything about them kicking out that lying dude from the family lol the dad and his ex should stayed on his side, i dont blame the stepmum though, if i had a woman i got together with and found my kids cloths in her grown dudes room i would probs got pretty angry to. But his dad lived with him his whole life, so he had no excuse to not belive him, as for lisa she was his no one elses. Would not gone back to them no matter what.
You should do what you think is best but infairness stealing your step sisters clothing is a prevented thing that happens. They couldnt have known you were framed. Also once they found out they are trying to make it right. You owe them nothing and only do it if you would get something out of it.
@@SA-ey6nt Maybe not but I have a daughter and a son if anyone stole eithers clothing to fulfill a sexual urge I dont know what Id do. My first thought would be to protect the victim.
Homie, his dad should've given him the benefit of the dooubte at LEAST till he finds proof that his son was actually stealing the underwear but he trusted a kid which mind you wasn't even his and is known for butting heads with the op but lord forbid we actually talk and find evidence before marking someone as a predator
@@jimgrand8514 A 16yo being attracted to their step sister is nothing abnormal, the parents should have prepared for such scenario because it isn't crazy. There's many things to do than to abandon the kid on the street and forget about him. And the father not even hearing him out
The familly is trash you can't just disown your child you take them to get punishments if it was real and you losten, and the gf is also trash she went after the step brother after ewww
Is like all this confession are the same only changing the gender or adding some weird details but is still the same shit 😅 at least post something creative
Realistically, in the US, the kids "can't" be kicked out, but (on the •VERY• small chance that the US legal system gets involved) if they are kicked out then the only thing that will happen is that the parents will be charged with child endangerment and have the kid taken, which is what they wanted in the first place.
Am i the only one think8ng it 8s normol to accacenaly find one of your sisters clothing idems in your dreeser and think it musst have been put in my baskit and i did not notice ?
