1. My husband left me for a younger woman after 22 years. The divorce was brutal. He got the house and all the money. Before it was even final, his GF proudly posted selfies in our bedroom. But later, she called me at 3 a.m., furious, “Why didn’t you tell me his dad split the inheritance with you?” she yelled. “Half of that should’ve been mine!” I was stunned. No one had told me anything. Not even my in-laws.
A few days later, they came to see me. They apologized for what their son had done. My MIL was crying and said, “You spent 22 years taking care of this family. We weren’t going to pretend that meant nothing just because our son is a walking mess.” They told me they had rewritten the will after my husband filed for divorce. Half of his inheritance now went to me instead.
They said they raised him better than this, and they wouldn’t reward what he did to me. All of this happened 2 years ago. Last I heard, they got married, and that woman has been “advocating” for her rights as his wife, trying to get my ex-in-laws to change the will so she gets half instead of me. Suffice to say, she’ll be advocating for herself till the sun burns out.
2. My mom has dementia. Early stages still but she forgets things and she knows she forgets things and that’s the cruel part, she’s aware of it. We were at a restaurant and she ordered her food and then ten minutes later she ordered again because she forgot she already did. The waiter didn’t miss a beat. He said “oh great, I was just about to ask if you wanted to add anything” and took her second order like it was totally normal. He didn’t look at me for confirmation. He didn’t do that awkward pause thing. He just treated her like a person ordering food. When I went to pay I tried to tip him like fifty percent and he said “my grandma had it too. You don’t have to tip me extra for being a normal human.” I barely made it to the car before I started sobbing.
