He told OP and grandpa that he was helping her and his son out because of his grandkids. They don’t work they never have money to feed the kids but always have money for drugs. After this incident he got fed up and evicted his son and the girlfriend. Then he took custody of the grandchildren.

Guess what, she ended cheating on me. When i found out and told her i knew about it she turned pale as a ghost, i broke the relationship right there. She tried to beg me to forgive her, that it was a mistake and it was her sisters fault. Same excuse everyone uses. Personaly when im in a relationship i take good care of it and protect it at all cost.

For the story where OP's sister was cheating, the husband said that if op ever covered for her sister he'd leave. The idea behind the no contract is the principal of "when you lie with dogs you come up with fleas" when you hang out with people who do bad things you begin to normalize the behavior and become numb to how bad it is and become more vulnerable to following suit. Op loves their sister and the fact that they didn't get upset with her sister shows how much her mind is willing to rationalize her actions which is a strong indicator that she could likely be influenced by her sister and, if not cheat herself, cover for her sister.

for story two: firstly I don't have this type of parent, but I've watched to many of toxic parent ticktoks to not talk about what you said. firstly kids of strict parents don't know that they don't have to get treated like this, they were raised like this and mostly don't realize that this is not normal. secondly the op did not have any issues with the ex girlfriend after this, and its good to point out that she didn't have any bad words to say to him. if this was really a red flag she would not have left on such i guess "civil" terms ( i was trying to make a point but it kind of made little sense) neither the ex or the op is the asshole in this its the ex's family to blame. again i understand the reasoning behind this, but we can correctly assume that her family has probably manipulated and pressured her into this. thank you for coming to my ted talk :D

Shoe on the other foot, say you had a close long term friend (or a sibling if you have one) and they lose their temper while drinking socially one time due to personal things happening or the person they fought having history with them (doesn't matter it's their issue not yours), end up in a bad fight and get shipped to county for it (either due to hospitalization of the other person, or they picked up a weapon during the fight, doesn't matter for this). Your significant other tells you that person drinks too often (even if they don't as we get the same amount of facts about that woman's life from story 4) and is too violent (even though this was the only time they have had such a drunken fight that your SO knows of, or that anyone publicly knows of, and there were stressor's). Your SO does not know that family member/friend like you do, and only has social contact/visits/hangouts with them for their bases of opinion, but after this, and with that friend/family members reputation as having gone to county for a violent drunk episode, they demand you cut all ties due to bad influence. What's your move? And I mean close friend or close sibling like Story 4's Wife described her relationship to her sister (ride or die it seemed). How would you feel if you got an ultimatum from your SO to choose between someone you have known longer (grew up/share blood with) and your life partner. Now I know you will say, but it's my SO, I have promised to choose them above all others forever and always, ask yourself, why on earth would they have the emotional capacity to say they would leave, no question, if you refused to pick them over this first and only situation of this kind that we historically know of (again same amount of info we get from story 4, as no previous issues or cheating was ever mentioned, and no sour relationship between the Husband and Sis-in-law is ever hinted at). How are they able to say, because you are close to/care for someone who has done that I can't trust that you love me anymore, or that you won't do the same thing, heck, tell that to someone who has ever become a parent after being abused by their own parents. Not only that, those who love us, would not give ultimatums like this, it's like saying to a SO who has had children with an ex-wife/husband, choose our children only and always when needed first, your previous children come second because you did not have them with me who is the most important SO you have ever had since you are with me now. Before anyone tells me that that last one is not the same situation because it's kids, your wrong, as it would feel the same to the person you are telling to choose between two (or more) people they love and want in their life.

story 3 I have an aunt who acts basicaly the same as the sister she overreacts at the smallest things and when thinks the world revolves around her I do love her but I have to think about all my actions 3 steps ahead so I dont cause a fight at this point I get so stressed out while being around and when you do set her off she will twist the story and use it later down the line like not a long time ago she got so upset at my dad because he wouldnt eat the gluten free cake (my dad cant eat gluten) which can be very expensive but we had just eaten a really big roast dinner with my grandparents and my dad was to full to eat also my parents made it very clear that there will be no desert and no one should bring a desert knowing this my aunt still got upset at my dad. another time was last christmas me my brother and parents had all pitched in to pay for my grandparents plane tickets so they could visit their relatives some of which they had not seen 20 years and so they could go to my cousins wedding my aunt was upset because we didnt pay for her ticket and that because we were going to no one could watch her dog our dogs would watched by my other grandparents

Story 2: as someone whos had went through hell from my own father, it nearly figuratively and literally killed me to burn that bridge. they both are victims of her mother. when you are raised by someone you become very attached to them, and at the same time she FUCKING LIVES WITH THEM what do you expect??? thats a hell of a leap of faith. I get it OP is hurt but this pain isn't caused by her, but her mother who has a lot of power in her life. And lets say she takes this leap, she'll put herself in a very dangerous spot and if the relationship goes south (for example, this will be extremely traumatic and this'll most likely put a lot of strain on both parties if they are unprepared for it. Stuff like that can easily kill someones ability to be in a healthy relationship). what now? go back home to the mom who abuses you and disowned you? stay with someone and watch as the stress eats you both? she has every right to be stressed. Thats her choice to make and really there is no good one. both are abused and need help

For story two, it's unfortunate that she's in that situation with her family it's not her fault and it doesn't mean she doesn't care. However it is not his responsibility to "rescue" her from her family and he has no obligation to suffer all of the emotional trauma that comes from having toxic people like that in proximity. I think he should move on, but it's his decision

that kind of thing has happened to me as well. when people are allowed to Rome on your property they start thinking they own it. I know because I owned 250 acres at one point in parcels scattered around the state. not only that they will move there line to try and steal part of your property. I just bought 8.5 acres in Tennessee in the mountains and some asswipe from Delaware bought the adjoining property beside of me. I didn't go up there for 2 years waiting on the 1031 tax exchange to expire so when I go up there he has been mowing about 50 ft inside of my line and he put in a driveway on my property to go into his property so saying nothing I precede to spend 3500 dollars to have it surveyed and to install a manumit. monuments have to be dead on accrete. so now he accepts the line I guess but he puts no trespassing signs down the line like I would go on his land rofl. we have a saying in the south good fences make good neighbors so I am contracting a fence company to build a fence 6 inches from the land so he cant legally use it. any way I have had so much trouble with neighbors where I live in north Carolina that I will not allow any one to go on my land any more. If I hear some one on it I will go after them and call the cops and nail them for trespassing thing is people are supposed to know where their property lines are and stick to them. this is just one of many instances about stupid neighbors I have had to deal with.

As for 2nd story, I felt for her. In most asian household, as long as you stay with your family, you've to follow the house rules even you're already your 40's or married. And being disown is something shameful for asian. Thus, what you can do as a friend/ex, offer her help, security, a house/room for instance and assure her even without marriage you will be there for her. She really need it...the courage 💪🏻

It's true. The fact that his Girlfriend didn't stand up to her own family is the most cowardness thing not to do. At the very least she should've said that her mother maybe in charge of the house. But her control of her daughter stops at the door and drops at the door. I don't know. Maybe I'm being harsh. Maybe there's more to the story and we don't know what happens behind closed doors. We can't jump to conclusions. I would just say if it was My girlfriend, I'd say maybe it's best this way. You obviously have some sort of family drama to sort out. We can't be together until you put your priorities first and put aside your family's wants for you.

I was in a similar situation as the second story where her parents didnt like me at the end. Some back story. We dated on and of for about twelve years since the early/mid 90's. In 2007 i realised i was transgender. In 2012 2014 we started dating again. I would wear clothes that you could tell were somewhat feminine light colored eyeshadow mascara eye liner and light colored lipstick just to get her used to being out with me looking a little femine. Around 8 months later i had a rare two days off in a row(i work fastfood). The day before these two days off as i was walking out of work she calls me using her parents home phone and told me "I dont want to do anything with you today or ever again". I was devastated and we havent spoken since except a few text messages bere and there. There is more stuff going on with her history that im not going to get into. Since it was her parents home phone used to break up with me i knew it was them that made her do it. I failed to mention that she was the first woman I truly loved and wanted to marry.
