1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: My sister is upset I didn't meet her wedding gift expectations, 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: so she bad mouthed me to wear bridesmaids. 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,399 Speaker 2: Ah. Gross, she got a bad mouth. You better close 4 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:10,959 Speaker 2: that thing. 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 3: It's better wash that mouth out. 6 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: So this happened last October twenty twenty four. My sister 7 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: twenty seven is about to get married. Let's set the stage, 8 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: and so therefore tension excitement both high. Being the eldest 9 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: and a person who has also gotten married before. I 10 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,520 Speaker 1: understand embraced myself for some bridezilla moments here and there 11 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: from my sister. By the way, this comes from okayfish 12 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: five two two two two on the Okay storytime separate it. So, 13 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 1: right after she was officially engaged to my now brother 14 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 1: in law, I already thought of lending her my wedding gown. 15 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: I know some people treasure their wedding gowns completely, and 16 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: the idea of lending or selling it kind of feels 17 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: like throwing away its sentimental value. Well, I feel the same, 18 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: but you know my sister a lot the thought lending, 19 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: the thought of lending my gown felt like passing on 20 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: the happiness I felt when I got married, like I 21 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: wanted her to feel the same way and more. This 22 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: is very sweet, everything's perfect. You're trying to pass on 23 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: the good vibes, but the good vibes roll. 24 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 3: Let the good vibes roll. 25 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,839 Speaker 1: Thus, when she expressed her interest, I did not hesitate 26 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: and offered some dates when she can come over for 27 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: fitting to see, of course, if there will be any 28 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: need for repair slash adjustments. I prepped the gown, had 29 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: it dry cleaned again, et cetera, et cetera. She went 30 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: to my house try the gown on, and left around 31 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: a week before her wedding. There's this thing that's been 32 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: bugging me that I feel like I had to tell 33 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: her before she gets married. This may be where I 34 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: am the agle. Ohhh, what did you say? I thought 35 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: it's better to get it out of the way, And 36 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: you know, I considered it as my last special talk 37 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: with her before she gets married. For context, it's kind 38 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: of traditional for us to have a heart to heart 39 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: talk with the parents before getting married. Parents usually offer 40 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: life advice and or expectations. Some treat it as a 41 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: rite of passage into a new chapter. Since our parents 42 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 1: are basically absent for most of our lives. I had 43 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: to step up and be the third but present parent 44 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: to my siblings. Birthdays, graduations, weddings, parent teacher conferences. Wow, 45 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: you name it, and most likely I'm there. Oh I forgot. 46 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: I'm at least five years older than my siblings, so 47 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: I practically raise them. This is the only reason why 48 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,399 Speaker 1: I'm holding off with having my own child. I grew 49 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: too tired of taking care of them the late night 50 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: crying and feeding them, changing their diapers, et cetera. OMG, 51 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: I'm crying again. So Op's heavily parentified. 52 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 3: For their whole life. 53 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 2: Literally has the yeah, pulled up the bootstraps, put on the. 54 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: Overall twelve of them. Was like, well, I guess I 55 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: got to go to this parent teacher conference. They were like, Hello, 56 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: where's your parent. She's like, it's me. 57 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: She just puts on like a like a beard. 58 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: It's like that fatar. You know what I'm talking about. Yes, yeah, 59 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: we're Katara and Zaki. 60 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, ooh yeah, oh yeah so yeah. 61 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: Going back, I thought I'll have the special talk with 62 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: my sister a week before her wedding. The first few 63 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: minutes were just us expressing our excitement about the wedding, 64 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: then talking about the drama of our mother about our 65 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: plans after the wedding, et cetera. Then I not so 66 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: subtly transition the conversation to my one big concern. Sometime 67 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: during the wedding preparation, we talked about some of the 68 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: gifts that she would want, and she casually mentioned non 69 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: verbatim that, hey, I spent this much enter a quite 70 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: hefty amount for your wedding, clearly reminding me of how 71 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: much she's spent and also giving me a hint that 72 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: I have to spend at least the same amount as 73 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: a gift to her wedding. I felt off right away, 74 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 1: mainly because we have never talked like this before. I 75 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: don't know, I'll explain it, but there's this silent agreement 76 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: amongst us that when we are gifting each other, we 77 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: never have to remind one another of the amount we spent, 78 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: just to make sure that we'll get the same value. 79 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 2: I think that's like an unspoken thing among all people who. 80 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: Have said anyone, yeah, it's like, don't be like, hey, 81 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: I got you one hundred dollars gifts, so you should 82 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: think about that when you're buying. 83 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: Me a gift. I did a little research seems like 84 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: your gift is lacking seventeen dollars and thirty seven cents 85 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 2: of value, a little. 86 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: Cheap this year. 87 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 2: Maybe you can get me back. Maybe buy me a 88 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 2: little lunch. 89 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: Just buy me a coffee. Sometimes who's to say. For example, 90 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: my brother covers most of the expenses when we go 91 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: out for my birthday. We all know this for a fact, 92 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: but he never once had to remind me of this 93 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: before his birthday, or when I spend the most during 94 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: the Christmas season planning and paying for the venue of 95 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: our get together and stuff. I never once felt the 96 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: need to remind them of this to get the same 97 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: amount in return. We are just to spending for one another, 98 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: not expecting to be paid back, unless maybe when there's 99 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: a prior agreement to chip in. I don't know the 100 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: act of offering to pay or to gift without mentioning 101 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: the price made it more genuine. It created a culture 102 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: of paying it forward without being pressured if you're giving enough. 103 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: That's why when my sister mentioned a specific price slash amount, 104 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: I felt pressured, and my initial thought of lending her 105 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: my gown doesn't feel so special anymore. I felt pressured 106 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 1: to spend the same amount, and when she went to 107 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: my house to get the gown. 108 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 2: Oh, no, we have lost the viewing of the. 109 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: No, what do you think Let's let's talk about her 110 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: thoughts while we fix it. 111 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 2: I think that, like, you know, the sister's entitled very clearly. 112 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: I like how op is talking about gift giving like 113 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 2: just basic breaking it down, as if it's like something that's. 114 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 1: Just like you guys know about this. 115 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: Does this weird little thing is kind of an US thing, 116 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: that's everyone on earth thing.

To just put her at ease. 171 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: I told her all of these during our special talk. 172 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: I also told her that you don't you know, you 173 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: don't have to remind me of how much you've spent, 174 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: since you know that I will be willing to give 175 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: you more without this kind of pressure. Take note that 176 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: by this time she already has my wedding gown. Everything 177 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: about the wedding plans are almost settled. So I was 178 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: about to end the conversation with expressing my best wishes 179 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: to her wedding and how much I love her, but 180 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: she went berserk and had a breakdown. She accused me 181 00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: of doing this for my peace of mind and not 182 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: thinking of her. She berated me about not being able 183 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: to prioritize her, that I could have waited after the 184 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: wedding to stress her out all like this. She suddenly 185 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: remembered me mentioning the price I spent in prepping the 186 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: gown and that it's now tainted with malice. 187 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know, it seems a little. 188 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: It seems a little extra, just a little bit. 189 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 2: But it's like the only reason that that happened is 190 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 2: because you were like, Hey, yeah, remember how much I spent. 191 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 192 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: I apologize for stressing her, but explained that this was 193 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: never my attention and that I don't want this to 194 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: be the first topic of our conversation right after she 195 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: got married. As I've mentioned, I just wanted to get 196 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: this out of the way. The ending was just so messy, 197 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: and it left me feeling guilty. She later on asked 198 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: our brother twenty nine, if his nuclear family could just 199 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: stay in her apartment the night before the wedding. She 200 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: said she'd rather reallocate the money for the hotel room 201 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: to pay me MAC and buy a different gown. WHOA, 202 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: that's just that's just this just too far. 203 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 3: Yes, it's it. 204 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 2: Seems like this is no one's taking an opportunity to 205 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 2: de escalate. 206 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: Oh, they're like, well you Oh. He's like, well you 207 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: brought up the money. 208 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 2: Song. 209 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: We got to have a conversation with you. And she's like, well, 210 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: you brought up the money to me. So I don't 211 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: even watch your gown. It's just a lot all it's 212 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: out of control. 213 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 3: It's doubling down and giving it to the next person. 214 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 1: Admittedly, I went ballistic after this because my brother has 215 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: a child and there will not be enough room for 216 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: them in her tiny apartment. So I told her to 217 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: stop being petty and she doesn't need to return the gown. 218 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: I have never witnessed this kind of pettiness before from her, 219 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: so I was mad and told her to grow up. 220 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: I told her that I'm trying to move past the 221 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: disrespect and pettiness, but she's making it hard to do so. 222 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: I also told her that if she cannot stand me 223 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: and she's that mad about me bringing all of this up, 224 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: she can remove me from her special day. Okay, now 225 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: we're now. I feel like we're everyone's doubling down. 226 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: It's just it's you can only double so far.

And when I try to speak 753 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 2: with John and Jane, they don't talk to me. I 754 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: sighed internally or maybe externally, and couldn't help. But wonder 755 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 2: how she didn't connect the dots me. 756 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:46,760 Speaker 1: Susan, it's their wedding. Of course everyone's gonna be talking 757 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: to them, and they're gonna be busy. 758 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 3: Susan, I don't care. I'm John's sister, so he should 759 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:54,720 Speaker 3: talk with me more. 760 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 2: Actually, lady, you're not his sister. I am, But okay, 761 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,280 Speaker 2: that's whatever. I was able to slip away and spend 762 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 2: some time with some other family who weren't acting as 763 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,240 Speaker 2: if this day were all about them. After the ceremony, 764 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,439 Speaker 2: Jane admitted to me that she was livid about how 765 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 2: Susan wore that wedding dress. She had plenty of time 766 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 2: to prepare and plan for the wedding and get appropriate attire, 767 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 2: but when finally confronted, Susan said she. 768 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 3: Had no other dress she could wear. It's just simply 769 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 3: just like. 770 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: Just don't have anything else in my closet, simply the 771 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: acting months, but I was busy. 772 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,439 Speaker 2: I haven't done laundry in twelve months. 773 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: Twelve months. 774 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 3: That's not my fault. 775 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 2: I'm constantly buying clothes every day. I don't have the money. 776 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: Trying to crucify me. It's not my fault. I didn't have, oh, 777 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,240 Speaker 1: any other options. 778 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 2: Imagine She's just like, well, what's the hell? 779 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 1: You know what this is? 780 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 2: It's a wedding dress. I'm at a wedding. 781 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 1: I accidentally started doing kind of the Shit's Creek impression, 782 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: but I realized this is actually what she does. She's like, 783 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: she wears a white dress to David's wedding, and I 784 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: was like, you're wearing a wedding dress.

My mom, John, and Jane 799 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 2: are also pissed about it. 800 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 3: Still. 801 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 2: I've since cut contact with Susan. Her and I never 802 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 2: had a good bond anyway, and as far as I 803 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 2: could see it, we just shared a dad. But I 804 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 2: almost never had to deal with my dad's previous family 805 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 2: as far as I know, John and Jane have limited 806 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 2: contact with her, but that can't be helped as they 807 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 2: live in the same city as her now, while I 808 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 2: happily live in a place where an ocean is between 809 00:39:58,719 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 2: me and her. 810 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: It's like she is as far as she can possibly 811 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:04,800 Speaker 1: be from. 812 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 3: Me, Dude, she is. 813 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 2: She is swimming as fast as she can across that 814 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 2: ocean right now.

I finally had a chance to 818 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 2: speak to my mom about dad's previous marriage, as I 819 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 2: had some comments expressing concern that my dad's lack of 820 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 2: commitment to his other kids was of concern. And here's 821 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 2: what I found out. My dad was baby trapped in 822 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 2: the marriage by his first wife when she fell pregnant, 823 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 2: which is a weird way to describe this. 824 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,839 Speaker 1: Apparently a very common way, but I always it always 825 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 1: trips fell pregnant, Yeah, because it sounds like fell ill. 826 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: But apparently this is like a thing that people say. 827 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:48,839 Speaker 2: I feel like you trip and fall and then when 828 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 2: you get up, you're like six months of pregnant. 829 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: Dang it. Uh. 830 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 2: When she fell pregnant, my dad stepped up and did 831 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 2: what at the time was appropriate and married her, as 832 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 2: he believed the child was his, and the first wife 833 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,439 Speaker 2: said it was his baby. After the baby was born, 834 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 2: she admitted the son was not my dad. 835 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: Whoa, you're not my dad? Or he I'm not your dad? 836 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 2: Okay, never mind. Despite the son not being dad's, he 837 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 2: stayed with the first wife to raise the child. Still 838 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 2: double wow. First wife then falls pregnant with a second child. 839 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 2: This one is Susan and my dad's Oh wait, this 840 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:38,480 Speaker 2: one is Susan and Susan is my dad's child.

First wife had a nasty habit of abandoning 842 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 2: Dad and the kids for days and weeks at a 843 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 2: time without saying anything. 844 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 1: Oh, you know, she's just being mysterious, doing a little 845 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 1: gone girl moment. 846 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just a little gone girl. She's good, she'll 847 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 2: come back. This left Dad to look after both babies 848 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 2: alone until she came back. I believe this was some 849 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 2: of her of fair habits. On a random night, first 850 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 2: wife actually packed all her things and the kids things 851 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 2: before taking both son and Susan, leaving my dad who 852 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 2: woke the next day to the aftermath of first wife leaving. 853 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 2: It was the first wife who disassociated from my dad 854 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 2: for no actual reason. Mom told me that Dad had 855 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 2: no choice but to give up rights to the son 856 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 2: and Susan because first wife wouldn't let him interact with 857 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 2: them at all, nor herself. Please note, my dad was 858 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,240 Speaker 2: not abusive to her in any way. Rather, the first 859 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 2: wife was the violent one, and Mom explained that there 860 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 2: was something wrong with her mentally, but she never sought help. 861 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,720 Speaker 2: There was also a period of time after Dad married 862 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 2: my mom and after I was born that first wife 863 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 2: was entirely out of control that Dad took in both 864 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 2: the son and Susan to live with us for wait. Sorry, 865 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 2: this is just a very few there's not a lot 866 00:42:54,920 --> 00:43:04,319 Speaker 2: of pronunciation here her punctuation. Rather that first wife was 867 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 2: entirely out of control. And then Dad took in both 868 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 2: son and Susan to live with us for a few months, 869 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,320 Speaker 2: but the son was a violent child. Susan wasn't any better, 870 00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 2: and both my parents had to contact child welfare after 871 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 2: an incident where my brother was taken to the hospital 872 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 2: because son had cracked his head open and John needed stitches. 873 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's not a huge mess. Yeah wow. Because 874 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,879 Speaker 2: first wife son was a clear danger to myself and John, 875 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 2: it was decided Dad and Mom couldn't keep looking after them. 876 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 2: But by the way, I want you to look after yourself, 877 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 2: and you can do so by listening to full episodes 878 00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,279 Speaker 2: with stories like this.

But like, 887 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 2: where where are we at? 888 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,320 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, this is just kind of a seems like 889 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,919 Speaker 1: a mask. Seems like she learned from her mom. Yeah, 890 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 1: or maybe didn't learn from her mom because her mom 891 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:21,319 Speaker 1: wasn't there. 892 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 3: That's sad. 893 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:26,120 Speaker 2: It seems like her Susan's behavior is a byproduct of 894 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 2: her tumultuous upbringing. Yeah, potentially, I think so doesn't excuse it. However, 895 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 2: it does shed light onto maybe why. 896 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 1: Like if I were writing a story like a novel, 897 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 1: I'd be like, here's the full character arc of how 898 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 1: Susan became terrible person? 899 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, how how Susan ended up wearing a wedding dress 900 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 2: to another person's wedding. It's all unhinged behavior, bed, That's 901 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 2: why wear a T shirt and jeans before you do that. 902 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, but let's hit hit this end. 903 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 2: Oh and it looks like the rest of the story. Okay, Well, 904 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 2: never mind. There was one bullet point. There's one more 905 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 2: bullet point here. There were multiple affairs that the first 906 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,320 Speaker 2: wife had while married to my dad, including a third 907 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 2: child that wasn't my dad's but his best friends. First 908 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 2: wife also had another two children after the divorce and 909 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 2: tried to claim my dad was the father even though 910 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 2: this was after my dad had married my mom. DNA 911 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:37,240 Speaker 2: tests were done and all of the children, and of 912 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 2: all of the children, only Susan, the second born, was 913 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,560 Speaker 2: my dad's child. I hope this helps to clear up 914 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 2: anything people were worried about. First wife is also an 915 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 2: extreme narcissist, which could explain Susan's behavior. Yeah. 916 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 1: I think it does. And that seems like an extreme narcissist. 917 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, and ding ding ding. We figured it out, folks. 918 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 2: Mother infected the daughter with her bad behavior. But that 919 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 2: is the end of that story. 920 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 4: Yeah,
