I’d honestly rather “ die alone “ than be with an abusive husband/son my entire life! This is honestly one of the many, MANY reasons I, myself, am fine with staying single all my life.
Better to die alone than live in Hell on Earth. I'd rather live in a damp box in the cold and rain than live in that damned house and may all their little flying monkeys fly off a cliff.
Yeah I'm not sure why abusers or a******* think that when you leave them and they say you will die alone I don't know why they think that's a threat Like being with you or dying alone Oh no how scary I guess I'm going to have to die alone I mean I'm sure I won't and I'm sure other people won't die alone but like f*** it's not as big as a threat as they think it is Staying with an abuser or an a****** and potentially Dying by their hands being murdered by their hands Or dying alone old and very comfortable in a nice bed Yeah one of those sounds a lot nicer to die than the other
Wait just a minute. . . A 17 year old girl went over to clean the house of a 27 year old man and “doesn’t remember” how she ended up getting pregnant from him!!?!?! 🚩🚨🚩🚨🚩🚨 This is so fricking dark and I hope the OP gets far away and never looks back. The son is a lost cause at this point. It would be awesome if there could be charges pressed, but I can see why she wouldn’t want to confront her abusers like that at this moment.
@HaganeNoChan Yeah, I know I was just a tad bit lazy to have my phone save that word, so I didn't really use the correct term there, but yeah, the whole situation is shitty. Honestly, the dad needs an investigation as well.
Story 1: So the OP was raped as a child and the was forced to marry her rapist. The her father still blamed her; now she's feeling guilty for leaving. Whatever church she was raised in was a cult. I am devoutly Christian and I would have had that man prosecuted and put under the jail for doing that to my daughter.
That's what I was thinking. Her saying she doesn't remember much SCREAMS that she'd been drugged and raped. I'm a devout Christian as well and I would never dream of putting my child through that.
First story had an update: Update: here’s a small update and I likely won’t update again do to being nervous about everything but I’m on a bus. I got on this morning and I’m about five hours away from the state and then I’ll be getting on a plane. I had enough money for a ticket so I’ll be super far away. I won’t work on the divorce until a few months from now and I have a small job lined up. It’s nothing special just a 12 an hour fast food gig. I’m grateful for all the advice. My old landlord was sorry to see me go but I paid off this months rent and told him he can sell the little bit of furniture I had. He said he’d give me half of that money once it’s all sold. He’s very kind, a little scary looking but when I spoke to him over the phone after I had left he was very understanding. Thank you all for everything and I’m sorry but this is the last thing anyone will hear from me unless I work up the nerve to update again. You are all incredibly wonderful and special people to me!
Thank you for that update. I'm happy to know she's getting away. It'll be scary, but better than being stuck under the thumb of all of the toxic men in her life. I wish her all the luck and love she didn't have before making this drastic call.
Not going to lie, the one incident where the son… got off… on hurting his own mother gave me severe chills. It made me think how he would have definitely escalated the abuse if she didn’t ran away as soon as possible. OP definitely made the right call on getting out of that situation despite everyone being against her.
This story is why I decided that even though my ex swore to me I’d never see my kids if I left him, I knew I had to go. He didn’t hit me, but he had a volatile temper and would throw things and punch holes in the wall. My kids weren’t listening to me, and I knew that my staying was teaching them it was okay to mistreat women. If Dad didn’t respect me, why should they? I did get custody of them because my parents helped me get a lawyer, but it was over three years before it was settled.
The worst part is that we didn't even knew what he did when he stopped pinning her , did he feel remorse for thinking this way about his mom let alone women in general or did he do the other thing
I feel like it's always like this, like clockwork, atp. I just think now that anyone from that type of one-mind-track church environment is just inherently toxic.
I do not agree with that assessment at all. However, the fact that this abuse was allowed to go on for 18 years, when others clearly knew about it, it beyond terrible.
@josephnorris4095 What do you disagree with? The church is well known for oppression of women. Ephesians 5:22-33 demands submission to a husband. The only argument against this is "well its praising women!" And "God loves women so he can't do that!" But both are nebulous arguments that don't mean anything in reality. Many things that honor women don't actually treat them with respect (example would be nazi Germany). And "gods love" for any gender is completely unprovable and even in the story of creation eve is far more an after through and frequently blamed for the fall of humanity.
@@josephnorris4095 ok, tell us how marrying off children who’ve been sexually assaulted to the person who assaulted them is morally acceptable. I get that people in the church are hesitant to be critical about each other but this is basically a cult and because of that this poor woman has absolutely no one to help her
Agreed! I hope oneday, the “ husband “ and his “ son “ go to jail for all they’ve done, and when they mess with the wrong person! Same goes for OP’s sorry excuse of a “ father “, too.
@@tawnyacosta9091 They'll never see the inside of a jail cell. They're good church boys, and churches like that usually control the towns they're in, including the local police.
Technically, the husband didn’t just say that he’d grow out of it: he said he’d grow out of it once he had a wife of his own, implying he’ll stop abusing his mother once he starts focusing his abuse on his wife.
Someone pulled this off because the abuse was notorious and the jury nullified the charges. She only ended her husband because no offspring lived in the house.
There was one like this, made into a movie "The Burning Bed." When John Kasich was governor of Ohio, he granted clemency to someone serving life in prison for killing her abusive ex.
Story 1; She's in actual, immediate danger and needs the authorities to intervene. She needs a new name, a new number and all new people in her life and to move far, far away. I'm GENUINELY terrified for her because I know someone who was OP and she's dead now; her name was Alexis Sharkey and her husband started off as just abusive before he strangled her before leaving her on the side of the road. Once they put their hands on you a *single time,* the chances of them killing you increase ten fold. It's no longer if they try to kill you, but when. Please OP, please get help. You didn't deserve any of this and none of It's your fault ❤

Yeah I dated a woman once who was part Roma ... "The g-word" is basically a slur. In parts of Europe it's almost like the "N-word", because the discrimination is almost as bad, and it hasn't gotten too much better in most parts. Kinda weird that she'd call herself that.
I know a few Roma. It seems to be a split opinion. Some see it a slur, but others don't care. I'll admit that I'm not sure if the ones who don't care are apathetic due to being used to hearing people use gypsy and they've normalized it or if they just genuinely don't care.
@@yukikitsune7366 From what I understand from a Roma acquaintance, it's basically the 'least bad' slur that's used towards them, so if all they're going to be called is slurs, it might as well be the least bad of them.
The g-word is as much a slur nowadays as is the n-word among the balcks of the US. I was part of those conducting the census several years back, and most of the Rroma families I interviewed during the census had no issue calling themselves that word. The pre-training we had was to always write rroma. Mostly because it's the actual name
First story: That son is on a path to either being stabbed by a gf/wife who decides they won't take that crap, or beaten with a blunt object by the father of said gf/wife. I don't see him surviving in this world very long, and I have no doubt that when it happens, the husband/dad is going to blame OP for it.
That son is in a community that appears to hold the same views. If the contagion is in the church, you can be pretty confident the entire community is infected with that particular mind virus. Unless his community experiences a sudden and rapid progressive shift, or he moves somewhere else, he's probably going to end up just like his dad.
Children model the behavior of their parents. Children in abusive homes don’t typically abuse a parent, but he might be doing it to curry favor with the dad. I suspect that’s why he’s his mini me. He’ll end up finding another subservient woman from their screwed up church, assuming he stays out of jail, and the cycle will continue.
Story 1: this man went out of his way at 27 to ruin a 17 year old’s life. I don’t understand why he hates her so much, but for some reason he chose her to torture from the get go and prolong her abuse by teaching his son that this is the appropriate way to treat a woman. Just sad.
i think that OP's monstrous husband hates her because he was forced to marry her. he most likely saw her as nothing more than a hole to fuck and was pissed that he now had to support her and his child. he wanted a fuck but then he got a wife and kid out of it. and he blamed her for that. so thats where i think the abuse came from. but maybe i'm wrong. maybe he would have beaten his wife no matter why they got married. but poor OP. i'm glad she's out of that now.
Some men love to take a beautiful creature & destroy them bit by bit, they love to see their handiwork, often remembering who their wife was before & be proud of how much they've "humbled" or "destroyed" them. The hatred could be that, or it could be that she "let" him ruin her, instead of her somehow finding a way for her personality to stay the same.
In story 1, I wonder if OP's mom actually needs the medication. I suspect she got put on them to make her docile for her husband. OP and her ex are about to discover no-fault divorce.
No kidding. She's probably the one person who doesn't deserve a 5/5 and that's because of the meds. After all, the dad is from the same misogynistic cloth as the husband. Despite going to church, they evidently didn't read the part about loving their wives like their own bodies.
I thought the same! That the husband convinced some sketchy doctor that his wife was “hysterical” and they are keeping her drugged to be complacent and submissive.
That's possible but I imagine it's the other way around. She went to the doctor and described how she felt all the time- but didn't describe her environment that was making her feel that way. The doctor gets her anxiety/depression meds or whatever that she doesn't need, being none the wiser that this woman would get better if she wasn't living with a monster. Now she's just constantly numb and doesn't even know what's going on
Story 2: Yeah no one should be with someone who trusts their "psychic friend" over them. Glad OP didn't back down. Rhona and her trash famiky can all bite it.
Did anyone else feel the giant red flag pop up at "I met him when I was sixteen in church"? Before we even got to the "I don't remember how I got pregnant" or "forced to marry".
@@mariposa9506 The word Church alone isn't. But the sentence met her husband at church at sixteen...yeah, I had an idea of what was coming from that sentence alone. It set up the cultishness that the story dove into
Story 3: Birthday gifts are meant for the birthday person only. If OP bought tickets as a birthday present, then it was with the expectation that Morgan would be the one using them, not to mention the brother would've not liked the concert anyway. The mom's only doing all of this for her own…ego? Something like that?
It screams golden child syndrome while Morgan has to accommodate. I hope OP and Jenny can continue being a support network for Morgan because I see this trend continuing. I also see Morgan hiding gifts and valuables at OPs since her mom thinks her items are a free for all except Morgan
Actually the Bible specifically says that his punishment is to marry her because he has ruined her for any other man. So basically if your creepy older neighbor stalks you and finally manages to r-word you, he gets to make you his wife. The Bible is the word of men
I found the abusive men story screenshot on Reddit. EDIT/UPDATE: OP packed a bag of essentials and left, she got a plane ticket and traveled thousands of miles to go to a woman’s shelter and hopefully figure out divorce and restraining orders there.
Story 1: WAIT WHAT?! OP basically lived in fear of her home life because she has to be “perfect” or she’ll get hurt? And her father basically abandoned her while her mom can’t even help. And op has to hide her scars to keep appearances. And the (the poisoned cherry on top) she started receiving physical AND sexual abuse FROM HER OWN SON?! ALL THE WTF IN HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS FAMILY?!! OP is in a waking nightmare and has no support from anyone. I pray this gets an update and OP can get away somehow. Story 2: stupidity by association. OP is in the right to continue the divorce because the wife believed the friend WITH NO PROOF. And the fact the family saw how stupid it all way. If she believed this “psychic nonsense” once then what else would she stupidly believe and falsely accuse OP of before another costly bill? Story 3: wait so OP won concert tickets, which he couldn’t use but graciously gave to Morgan who liked the band, but it was snatched from her to use on her brother….ALL CUZ HE HAD NEVER BEEN TO A DAMN CONCERT?! This woman basically used OP’s generosity for her own gain and thought this was a good idea?! She fails as a parent automatically

I wish she'd alerted the landlord about WHY she was leaving Scary looking? I'm guessing big bloke, I'd have liked to hear he kicked the cr*p out of the abusers when they came calling Good luck OP... May whichever God you believe in watch out for you
Story 1 is straight horror movie material. Also a textbook example of how abusive patterns get passed on; the son is quickly becoming irredeemable, and it's not even his fault.
Story 1: I saw a documentary about a country in Asia, either Japan or South Korea when victims of abuse contact an underground network of rescuers who secretly take them out of such situations and change their identities. I hope such a thing would be available to someone like OP who is surrounded by horrible men.
I saw that too, it was Japan. It's apparently quite difficult to get divorced in Japan if one of the spouses doesn't want to get divorced. You need a lot of money to hire an investigator to prove infidelity and/or abuse (physical, financial, etc) to make it easier to divorce, which many of the victims don't have. And also quite difficult for the mother to get custody if she wasn't earning a liveable income during the marriage. That's where the underground association comes in.
1st Story: So OP is drugged and S.A. and get pregnant because if it and the fathers response is to force her to marry him. The f? I think the worst part is the son though... OP said he was hard when he pinned her down and beat her. Then, when he discovered where she lived he was yelling at her for, "Not loving him like he loved her. That phrase got a viseral reaction out of me. I'm so happy she escaped. Otherwise I think the next person to S.A. her was going to be her OWN son...
@blackhelm5773 So I just read those verses, and I'm still not convinced. It does say that if a man "takes hold" of an unbetrothed virgin and "lays with" her, he needs to pay father his dues and take her as a wife. However, a few verses up, it says it talks about if a man "forces" a woman to lay with him, he's stoned. Granted, that's a betrothed woman, but still, the key word there is "forced."
Story 1: Everyone in her life is toxic and evil. I could not imagine hurting my mom or anyone else, and yet these two men do it like its nothing. I wish her all the best, she deserves so much better.
The scariest part of story 1, to me, is the clear fact that by letting the son get away with how he treats his mother, they've raised a predator with some horrific predilections. I have no doubts we will be seeing him in the news in the near future.
Probably the worst thing I've ever seen in my life was my stepfather beating my mom over the head with a cane when I was 8. The way I saw multiple men treat women while growing up made me question being male. These people need to get help.
Title story: You know its bad when you just start the story and realize the age gap (10 years) and the fact they met when she was 16. Also YIKES- her father is shitty too for saying that her husband beating her is her punishment for ”pre-marital s*x”. Done with the story and holy- the whole family is AWFUL- I know the mom was medicated but her going "My husband beat me but I didn't leave you” is just- lady, custody agreements exist. OP didn't failed as a woman, everyone else failed her as a father/husband/son.
Story 1: I would not begrudge OP at all if she wanted to slyly let slip info about the entire family, and for the family to get majorly called out by the internet over this. It would be karmic justice for all of those men to get just a TASTE of what they put this poor woman through her whole life.
If they did find the story and was able to link it to OP, they would likely continue to view her as a coward and “not a real woman”. I think the less of a spotlight OP can create the better. If anything, it will help keep them from finding where she now lives.
That’s called doxxing, and depending on the jurisdiction, it or subsequent harassment or violence may be a prosecutable offense. I’d consult a lawyer, or at the very least r/LegalAdvice, before doing something like that.
Story 1 : " Am i the a hole for choose my life over being dead"?? NTA .. never go back ever.. get a restraining order against all of them if not then i agree 100000000% with rslash op needs to like sideshow bob pick a random place in another world change her name number look and everything in between and never ever go back.. Story 2 : NTA.. divorce is the only thing that will work.. op hopefully soon to be ex wife is a terrible terrible person taking the word of a troll then her own husband.. good on op for having a backbone and not letting Rhona fake tears get to him .. op shouldve told Rhona:" as soon as were divorced go marry the only person word you take seriously thats your girlfriend anna since your both misreable hags".. Story 3 : NTA.. someone had to stand up for Morgan.. Morgan mom: " your trying to tell me how to parent " Op :", i wouldn't if you werent so horrible that i wouldnt have to tell you"..
Story 3: Deriving "you're trying to tell me how to parent" from what OP said, requires all the stretches, turns and terpsichores Howard Wallowitz had to do in order to not have the floorboards in his kids' bedroom squeak. The fact that Morgan's mum immediately jumped to that conclusion means that deep down even she knows what she was doing is wrong and ridiculous.
Last story: if this was a one-off event, then maybe I'd agree with a 1.5/5 buttholes rating, but I suspect that this isn't the only time that another kid gets favored, so if that's the case, it's more like a 2.5/5 buttholes rating
I feel like I've scrolled through a lot of comments and not a single person has brought up the fact that the 17-year-old son is getting turned on by hitting his mom. My stomach was already churning from the story, and that made me want to throw up. It's a telltale sign that one day he might be a serial killer or something. I'm so glad she got away for now and I hope that the authorities get involved and she lives a safe life and gets the help she needs. I'm so proud of her
I'd bet most people got a bit of vomit in their mouth reading that. But there is no need to focus on it, if he's a sociopath through and through. And depending on where this happened, he won't stand out... Most likely a US cult, or anywhere in India.
Interesting thumbnail. *First OP:* I've read this before. OP is NTA, and I hope she finds a safe place far away from her husband and his son. I also hope everyone else in the story get the lives they deserve. *Second OP:* If OP stayed with Rhona, he'd be just as stupid as she is. OP is NTA. *Third OP:* ... What in the Golden Child/Scapegoat heck? OP is NTA.
That first story was actively horrifying. I truly hope that OP can get completely away from every single person in her life and find a new, real family and friend group
First story has some of the worst excuses of men I've ever heard of, they should get a taste of their own treatment Second story, gypsies was a name given to travellers who for reason or another I'm not sure of, (potentially their flowy bright coloured silk dance outfits) however they originally came from Romania/ India as a reply has informed me, hence the term romanies, the plural of which is roma. You can thank assassin's creed revelations and boo for the info
It disturbed me when OP revealed her husband GOT OFF on beating her. As far as I know there is one, VERY SPECIFIC, scenario where that’s okay, said scenario requires consent, and this is extremely far-removed from that scenario. OP should run.
I come from a family that believes in psychic abilities, but not a single one of us would accuse a spouse of cheating solely based off another person's words, psychic or otherwise. Aside from the fact it wouldn't hold up in court, people can be wrong or straight up liars.
I hope OP will go to another state or city far away from her former place of residence, change her number and name. There is nothing else left in my opinion. She needs to start from scratch because there is nothing to go back to in this case.
first story (cept op): check under your seats! you get five out of five you get five out of five you get five out of five EVERYONE GETS FIVE OUT OF FIVE!!!
This was the most 5:5 he gave in a story. They are well deserved 5:5 and when that number is issued by RSLASH, the heavens should strike havoc on to those casted with his 5:5
Story 1: Genuinely if OP were to show up to a trial for 'murdering' her husband and son, I'd vote not guilty so long as they press the murder angle. I'm gonna guess these people claim to be religious(english speaking so probably christian), but I highly doubt they'll enter heaven. Story 2: It seems like it took almost a year before the STBE turned around and believed he wasn't cheating... However there is the problem that she _STILL_ isn't believing her husband over other people, I don't think she even mentioned cutting off that 'psychic friend' who's just a scammer. Story 3: That mother best learn to be a better parent, or she'll only have 1 kid speaking to her.
Story 2 The parents smells like well off/ rich family, people who are less trusting / paranoia of others (not saying unjustified in some case but it can really make people paranoid). Why do i say well off? Because a private eye cost a LOT of money, especially over a long period. Add to this the whole, "we will pay 25% down payment" ... But that also means they are very susceptible to any type of accusation/slander/rumor. OPs wife probably grew up in this culture of distrust and when a long term friend said something, well, that trumps short term husband + paranoia. Now, OP is better off without this ex-wife because if it all it takes is a single accusation, well, imagine when OP has kids with her. Yoink, bye kids... daddy has been accused of something without a shred of evidence and that is all we need to dump his ass!
Story 2: some stupid psychic and a laugh convinces her you’re cheating, but she can only believe you’re not cheating after hiring a private investigator? Not to mention the weeks leading up to her moving out she found no evidence of cheating with her own eyes. The difference between you not taking her back and she ending the marriages you have a reason , she didn’t. She had to live with the fact that she ruined the perfectly happy marriage because a psychic told her to.
Another word for psychic is conman / conwomen ... So yea, and as i posted somewhere else, i suspect that OPs parents have money (see the long private eye investigation, the 25% down payment)... Grubbily little hands wriggling inside. And ironically, that same con, works even better now that OP's ex-wife is mentally more broken. "OP stopped the affair because you confronted him, its not me, trust me, by the way, i have some bills to pay"...
What messes me up is that it's the type of dude who grows up saying "women in the past were happier and now they are w**res(ho)" and don't even realize the mothers they had were pulled out of their minds.
So story 1: my theory is the reason why the mother isnt helping her, is that her father probably got her hooked on pills so she doesn't rebel against him because her mother sounds like she doesn't have her own mind. Maybe its the mothers own fault but she sounds like she is way gone
"BuT tHe BeAR iS dAngEroUS!" The bear won't knock you up at 17 and abuse you systematically for a lifetime, leading to your own child also physically abusing you, though, will it? WILL IT!?
"my son says im a terrible mother for not love him the way he loves me" honestly, this lady should love him the way he loves her, in other words, buying a high caliber and waiting he try to knock again behind the door
Oh my god, what is that title The story is even worth, it's like a snowball rolling down a mountain. Even the mother is ran through. She needs to go to the cops ASAP. The kid is 18, he shall fend for himself. I hope he'll learn life by talking smack about someone outside. She's in life danger. Everyone around her is her enemy. Leave everyone behind. That is unironically the worst story I've ever heard about here.
@@Diamondr11Blue Yeah dude, it's obviously bait, you're so smart. Everything is bait if you personally don't believe it. Thank you, Mr. "I am the standard and nothing exists out of my bubble".
First story is really bad. Her mother gave up on life, her father is abuser, her husband is abuse and her son is growing up exactly like his father. I hope she'll manages to escape from them as far and as fast she can. No real man hits his wife or mother. You don't put your hands on a woman.
First story, that's a cult and you can't convince me otherwise. But there were two updates that go hand in hand and are both good. The first update after Rslash read the story is that OP managed to get in touch with a shelter very far away and getting tickets with the following update being her on a bus out of state then onto a plane to the city. She even has a job lined up and will figure divorce stuff and a restraining order later but she's escaped
I think it’s extreme to call it a cult, when growing up in the Bible Belt you see countless families like the 1st story. The religion and it’s ideology are the root of her issues.
Story 1: the abuse is obvious but one detail isn’t, what is the wife taking, why is the wife taking it, and what doctor/psychiatrist approved such a high dose that their patient is a “zombie”? Every psychiatrist I’ve ever dealt with has spoken to me face to face on a monthly to bi/tri-monthly basis. If they saw a zombie responding, they would Immediately stop the medication. I think the husband is drugging her or giving her his own prescriptions. I’d guess he’s giving his wife his antipsychotics but I don’t have any evidence other than the parents’ contrasting behavior.
It's very obvious the mother is being drugged yes, potentially even with drugs the father orders online... And I wouldn't be surprised if she's already brain dead... And they just keep her tax benefits or something.
story 1: Yeah this is just...wow...this is terrible all around. So terrible I don't even know where to begin with the mess that is OPs life and family. For starters I don't doubt that her son is going to end up jail one way or another. This is a monster in the making if he's willing not just to lay hands on his mother but was going to do...THAT. He's not just going to limit his cruelty to family. I just hope he sends up enough red flags to the first girl he meets that she stays away. I get that OP feels bad. This is her son in the end. Someone she birthed and cared for. Sadly that care only went one way. And I know if she stayed any longer with that monster of a husband and her child...she will more than likely be dead. I HIGHLY recommend that OP records the harassment for evidence for divorce, gather witnesses to the abuse if any, get ready to move and block numbers. OPs so called husband and her son hate her...but they refuse to let her go under any circumstance for the sake of their own sadism.
Story 2: As a person who is Romani, palm reading is more often than not (from my extended family atleast) a scam. Tarot reading is slightly more trustworthy due to the lack of being able to manipulate the results. A palm reader can say ANYTHING about your palm lines, but it's a bit hard to lie about what cards mean.
While I think going to seeing a psychic would be fun at the fair, there's no way I'd take it all that serious. I'd need a whole stack of evidence before I accused my partner of cheating.
The whole thing on forced marrage fathers letting there kids get abused it’s friken god damn disgusting being a man isn’t abusing your love and if you think so go get therapy cause this shit is revolting your supposed to care love and respect your family not punch them nor abuse them and that father and mother are seriously horrible and I have no respect nor kindness for them they failed there child
Story 2: ROMA IS IN FACT WHAT “gypsy” people call themselves! Gypsy is actually a degrading term and i think is even considered a slur. If this woman knew ANYTHING about her heritage, she would NEVER have disrespected herself by referring to herself as a “gypsy”
@@Tustin2121 italy’s capital is Rome (im unsure if it might be pronounced or spelt differently by people who live there, but maps and such always say ‘Rome’). But, yeah you are right, Romani is the full word but many people of that descent say Roma for short, similar to how Jewish people shortened to Jew over time for convenience or (a bad example but one i can think of where a word is shortened for convenience) The word “faggot” gets shortened to “fag” many times
Story 1: as someone pinned on here she was able to get away and start a new life but man, that poor woman has gotta have so much trauma and i hope she gets help for it and make friends to support her.
For the "psychic" story, OP is right: Roma people generally don't like the word gypsy. They consider it a slur. Most people who call themselves gypsies are not even Roma. They think that by claiming that title, it makes them sound more mysterious. This would have been my first clue that the friend was both bullshit and trouble.
In story 1 OP is lucky she escaped alive. In a lot of cases of abused women they're the most vulnerable and most likely to be killed when they leave their partners. My heart goes out to her. I'm so sad so many people men and women are in horrible relationships abd on top of everything they can't seek refuge from parents or support network. I wish her the best and I hope she heals. And to her husband, father and son.... I doubt they'll change so I wish the worst
It's the morning for me, and I almost threw up because of that first story. That first story is revolting. The dad, the son, and the father need to go to jail, and stay there.
story 1. She needs to get recordings of any more contact attempts and save any future messages. Seems like they are giving her plenty of proof for a lawyer to have a field day tackling the case (if she ever decides to take action).
The last story reminds me of a ProRevenge story - OP's client send him some Super Bowl tickets to see the Niners, but OP's partner steals them. So OP and his client have a plan to expose the partner and take away the business from him. I think Story 3 is somehow similar to that ProRevenge story. You can't take away the gift from the supposed receiver, and OP's upset is totally understandable and justified. He's in the clear and NTA.
Story 1 is so... so terrible. I hope OP gets very, VERY far away from the monsters in her life. Her father, her "husband" and her "son". I'm sorry but that son is going to rape someone. OP "doesn't love him the way he loves her", that was SEXUAL ASSAULT. And that piece of crap father. Both need prison. That son is going to ruin his life because of his father and OP should have left years ago though given her situation it's not like she had many options. It's just really sad it took until the son was 18 to try and get away. I feel OP's mother is forcibly dossed up on that "medication". Story 2, sorry but that woman lost her mind the moment some "psychic" told her that her husband was cheating and she could find NO evidence period, she got to reap what she sowed. And she sowed distrust into her marriage. Good luck to OP and good luck to the absolute sucker his ex is. Story 3, Morgan's mother is a dick to her daughter by taking away a gift to give it to someone else. The gift is for MORGAN, not HER to do as she wants.
OP: *to her supposed “ family “* WHERE WERE YOU WHRN I NEEDED PROTECTING FROM THIS MONSTER OF A MAN YOU LET INTO MY LIFE?! I’d rather “ die alone “ than deal with another second of this clear as day abuse!
Op 1 is surrounded by monsters. She literally has nobody in her life that is a good person. I hope we see an update of her in another state or country.
I’m just imagining the conversation between Rhona and the private investigator. “I need you to spy on my husband’s affair” “OK, why do you suspect it? Any current evidence?” “No, my psychic friend predicted it.” “Right……this is going to be some easy money then.” 😂
On that first story I hope there's an update to it one day because I don't honestly the poster deserves so much better and the only thing she can really do is move away from these terrible people that have felt her from her husband to her parents and sadly even her son cuz that's really all the poster can do
First Story: I cant stand people who use their "faith" to abuse others. My family used the bible to justify all the horrible stuff i dealt with growing up. I have no contact with anyone now. Not since 2017. Moved from Ohio to Alaska and never looked back. I'm happy she left. Im sorry her own son got sucked into that disgusting behavior. He'll never have any good relationships and will be toxic and harmful to anyine he's with.
Story 2: My mom would get me gifts for my birthday and Christmas and half would be stuff she actually wanted. So she'd end up with half of my presents she originally bought me.
OH, that story... Rape, abuse, beatings... Even my family wasn't that bad all in 2 people, it was much more spread out. I hope OP stays well away and safe. NO ONE should have to suffer that! Don't go to your parents, run far far far away and never let them find you!
I know someone that had a similar experience to the second story, a "psychic" told my friends partner they were cheating, and they just believed them (seemingly with little convincing), had a very similar break and eventually after a lot of their money spent trying to prove it, they finally believed their partner. But by then he'd stopped loving her. What came out way down the line is supposedly her parents didnt like him, and paid said psychic to convince her, along with trying to bribe the private investigators she'd hired, and a whole lot more. They spent a lot of money trying to poison her against him, never found out why, up until that point they had gotten along well with the parents. Its like something just snapped in them. As bad as the whole situation was for them, they are actually grateful, dodging a massive bullet and have cut all contact with the family (supposedly so has she, after she found out what the parents did).
Story 1: Honestly I agree with Op’s husband, father and son getting 5/5 but I’d probably cut her mother some slack like 4/5 because like op said her mom was pilled out and wasn’t exactly in the right state of mind when she said what she said. I hope that op eventually presses charges against her son and husband for their countless times they assaulted and beat Op.
For the record, the slur "Gypsy" refers to multiple groups. Essentially, all Roma are gypsies, but not all gypsies are Roma. Also, some will use the slur rather than get into the details.
it wasn't really mentioned, but it also sounds like OP was being groomed while still a minor, then being forced to get married to said groomer by her own freaking parents. OP said their ages were 35 & 45, her "husband" was **10yrs** older than her. he was 26 when they met when she was only 16, 27 & 17 when pregnant/married. almost all of the men in her life were deplorable, souless, abusive, assholes. the audacoty of her own child to beat her then simultaneously cry for her to come back, calling her a bad mom for leaving. a whole-ass 18yr old beong this pathetic. OP's mom clearly doesm't habe all the information, her family all saying she's a "bad mom" for leaving when even her own kid savagely beats her, sometimes to the approval of the husband/dad. someone commented the update, so at least some good came from this and she got away. also that landlord is a G, wish more were as nice as him. organized religion is outdated and easily manipulated (just gross in general, the behavior that is perpetuated indefinitely, as well as the near constant hypocrisy). but OP's father being the matchstick that caused all this suffering, and allowing it to go on (even doing it to his own wife), he's among the reasons why a hell would exist.
It may be less upsetting for people it's not happening to, to not hear about it, but if we want it to actually STOP it's better if we hear about it, so we can help...
The first story broke my heart.. honestly her best bet is to change her name and get a new number to leave for a different state and heal and honestly go gay at this point
Is it normal that i want to hug OP 1 right now? She deserves a better life and to be happy... 😭😭 i've read the update (thanks to comments❤), but i still feel awful for her. She needs a huge warm sincere hug and huge amount of love ❤❤ Also .. only 5/5 AH rating for everyone else except OP? I'd say infinity/5 !!
C'mon Dabny, there's been so many entitled parents stories on Reddit that you cannot tell me you're actually surprised that there's a mom out there who would steal her daughter's birthday present to use on another kid. I mean you read the Reddit post we all dubbed do it for Dan, Don't you remember anything of that? Come on if there weren't entitled parents like this Reddit wouldn't exist
That first story made me see red. If hell truly is real, then every person in OP's life has a first-class ticket to it. Stay strong OP, and never turn back.
OP: gets sexually abused by her son Also OP: AITA? Jesus christ she needs so much help. I hope she can afford a lawyer to make the divorce final. Is there a way the state can grant her one?
