Who wants to bet that Stephan is going to "check on the money" from the buyout one day and leave OP's mother high and dry, THEN she wants to apologize for everything?

@SYLVESTER-6782 Ай бұрын

I would bet that Stephan would steal the money. However, I doubt OP's mom would apologize. I would even say she would take him back.

If someone told me they were taking over a business and turn it into a franchise I would want to see the business plan. They are most likely in over their heads and delusional. I would want to see his qualifications for running a business as well. Joke of a human saying all that. OP's mom had trouble in her marriage and gave them a business. Dumb, and sadly I have known people that dense. Never forget betrayal. I wouldn't have had anything to say to the woman if she told me that nonsense. The only thing I would want to hear from them is they were signing over the bookstore and offering up an apology. It's painful to cut out family. But you have too sometimes. The fact they were throwing the grandparents in her face is just such a nasty thing.

She didn't let the grandparents down, their daughter (the mother) let them down and couldn't just let her daughter handle the store that the mother didn't even want to deal with it in the first place... Stephan is just a sh**head and should have taken responsibility and admitted he couldn't handle it and give her the store. Luckily, she still got in the end, even though it had to go by other means to achieve it.

@@DraxXThanos Physical harm is only short term. When people are physically abused, they tend to be more closed off and make excuses for any apparent injuries. Mental abuse however is long term and causes way more damage going outward. Think of one as tnt and the other as a nuke or MOAB. Both can be devistating, but one will clearly take longer to recover from than the other. Mental abuse, by someone who has a true understanding of psychology and no morality can be devistating. It nearly ruined my relationship with my mother from a mentally abusive relationship she was in for years.

Wait- hang on why is OP so mad at Stephen? It doesn't even seem like he really... did anything? Like, other than being emotionally distant from his wife after they both lost a child, which like... is both fucked up but also understandable... like sure OP's mom SAID that she'd promised it to Stephen and Stephen... changed the decor in their home when OP was younger because he... now also lived there, I guess? Like high key I just don't think I like who OP is supposed to be as a person in this one. I get that someone would want to be in on the bookstore that their grandparents ran and that their grandad said would go to them but like... if they cared so much about the bookstore that it meant enough to them that they would cut their mom out of their life over it... why not just... offer to work there and help? And then if you hated what Stephen and OP's mom would turn it into then they could... leave? IDK OP just seems really entitled and self-centered in this one, the only emotions/perspective they consider here are their own throughout and that makes it hard to like, agree with, or even believe that this is the whole story.

Main point of the story is that the Stepdad in this story was too controlling , mother did NOT cared about the child while bringing random men at home every other week, letting him be controlling , and in the end calling OP selfish for not helping them out even when they were the one with no experience , doing bad investments and borrowing money when they had no idea on how to run business and being uncertain if they could pay it back.

You can be healthy on a vegetarian diet aswell , main problem when switching to it is that they do it too suddenly. There is a process that needs to be followed while doing that otherwise the negative effects are unavoidable. Human bodies can make 11 out of 20 amino acids , other 9 needs to be taken as supplements which can be done by including soybean products, seitan, beans, and lentils. Calling it "stupid cow diet" or "grass" is kind of a inaccurate and weird simplification.
