A seven-month pregnant woman has described the terrible incident in which she discovered her mother and husband sharing a bed, as well as the terrible consequences for the family that ensued.
A distraught expecting mother has spoken out about the terrible family drama that ensued after her life was completely upended. It hurts enough to find out that your partner has cheated on you, but in her case, the betrayal is considerably more severe. She discovered that her own mother had been the object of her husband’s infidelity.
The fact that the affair has continued for an astounding 22 years—the duration of their marriage—makes the situation even worse. She also discovered that some of her siblings are actually her husband’s biological offspring, as if that weren’t enough.
The woman, who is seven months pregnant, revealed the emotional devastation she is experiencing by sharing her traumatic story on Reddit. Her mother is now accusing her of “ruining her life” by revealing the truth, she claims.
“I’m forty years old,” she wrote, describing the context. My mother, 60, and father, 63, have been wed for forty-three years. I have six siblings. I’ve been with my 39-year-old husband since we were 15 years old.
“My spouse is gay, but we have a wonderful sexual life together, and we are currently attempting to conceive.”
“We moved in with my parents after I became pregnant at the age of 17. My daughter, who is now 22 years old, was born. Soon after, at the age of 18, we were married. Shortly after our wedding, my dad’s father passed away, leaving my dad his ranch-style home. After my parents retired, my grandparents constructed a home next door. My parents informed us that this house would be my inheritance and agreed to let us live there. This was fine with my hubby and myself. We have three children: a five-year-old, a fourteen-year-old, and a twenty-year-old. I am currently seven months along in my pregnancy with my final kid, a boy, who is due in April.
She begins by talking about their close-knit family and what seems to be a happy family life before expressing how shocked she is to learn about her mother and husband’s affair. She writes: “I believed my marriage was going well; we went on date nights, were intimate more than twice a week, bought each other presents, and avoided arguments. When I returned early from a girl’s trip with some pals on New Year’s Eve, my whole world fell apart. My mother was having sex with my husband when I entered my bedroom. I was even more shaken when my mother yelled at me to leave “their” bedroom.
When she confronted her husband, she learned that his sexual relationship with her mother had been going on for years—longer than her marriage, in fact. “I questioned him about it. He informed me that when we were eighteen and lived in their home, my mother wooed him. For longer than we were married, they had been engaging in unprotected sex at least once a month,” she continued. “I ran the math and was horrified because the timeline meant my twin brothers and youngest brother could be my husband’s.”
She went on to warn her father about his wife’s infidelity: “My dad was distraught when I forced him to confess because he and my mother were also high school sweethearts. It goes without saying that when he approached my mother, we could hear her yelling from her home.
She explains the family fallout by describing how she had a party at her sister’s house and took advantage of the occasion to tell everyone about her mother and husband’s relationship. “At the party, I had my 22 F daughter take all the kids to our basement and put on a movie, leaving only the adult children and siblings, and I told them exactly what they’d been doing,” she says.
“With the exception of my three youngest siblings, my 38-year-old sister, and my ex’s entire family, the majority of the family is on my side,” she added. I’m an AH for revealing this in public, they all say.
However, the original poster’s situation worsens at this point as she discloses the criticism directed at her mother, who was fired from her position as a children’s pastor because of her adultery. She continues: “My mum has since been let go as the children’s pastor there and she claims I’ve essentially ruined her reputation and life.”
She goes on to discuss the consequences and how it affected her family, including her preparations for divorce and her strained bond with her mother. “I’m still very angry and bitter at my mother, especially at her hypocrisy of calling me a w**** and shaming my family, when she’s done much worse,” she clarified after more than a month had passed. In addition, I hate my ex with all of my heart because he occasionally f******ed both my mother and me before entering our bed a few minutes later. Less than a week after he got me pregnant, he got my mother pregnant. Although I found it adorable and enjoyable to share my pregnancy experience with my mother, she was expecting my children’s half-siblings. My faith in men and their faithfulness has been shattered by him.
Reddit users have jumped to the original poster’s defense, with one commenter saying: “Well done for not actually stabbing your hubby. I wouldn’t have the same strength. “This title should be changed from ‘I ruined my mum’s life and reputation’,” another person remarked. “My mum destroyed our family, and at the same time ruined her own life and reputation” .. Like every other member of your family who was harmed by this, you are a victim even though you did nothing wrong.” “‘My mum ruined her life’ There I fixed it for you,” a third person shared.
