My sister Lisa lost her husband about a
0:02
year ago. It was a tragic time and in
0:05
the aftermath, she naturally reached out
0:07
to our family for support. My husband
0:10
Rick, always a compassionate soul, was
0:12
there for her. They started hanging out
0:15
a lot, sometimes without me, which at
0:17
first I didn't think much of. Grieving
0:20
people need space, right? But then I
0:23
came home one day and found them
0:25
sleeping in our bed. They weren't facing
0:28
each other and they were fully clothed,
0:30
but still. It was our bed. My bed. I
0:35
remember the surge of discomfort,
0:37
confusion, and a deep unsettling
0:39
feeling.
0:41
I confronted them angry, asking what was
0:43
going on. Neither of them seemed to
0:46
understand why I was upset. They acted
0:49
as if it was completely innocent.
0:51
Regardless, it made me deeply
0:53
uncomfortable, and I asked Lisa to
0:55
leave.
0:56
I thought that would be the end of it. I
0:59
truly did. Well, the very next day, my
1:01
husband invited her over without saying
1:03
anything to me. I remember opening the
1:06
door to find her standing there, tears
1:08
streaming down her face. Before I could
1:11
even react, she ran into his arms.
1:14
And then, before anyone said anything,
1:16
she did something that completely
1:18
floored me. She demanded I leave the
1:21
room. She had something to say, she
1:23
claimed, but didn't feel comfortable
1:25
telling me with me present.
1:27
I teared up, my mind reeling, a cold
1:30
dread creeping into my stomach.
1:33
I went into the other room, barely
1:34
registering what was happening, my heart
1:36
pounding with a terrible premonition.
1:39
And then I heard it, Lisa moaning. I got
1:44
up, my legs feeling like lead, and
1:46
walked back into the room. What I saw
1:48
next shattered my entire world right in
1:50
front of my eyes. They were making out.
1:53
My husband, my sister in our home, I
1:58
couldn't breathe. I ran out, desperate
2:01
to escape, feeling like I was going to
2:03
vomit right there and locked myself in
2:05
my room.
2:07
An hour later, Rick walked in. He
2:10
wouldn't even look at me. He mumbled
2:12
something barely audible and went and
2:14
sat on the bed.
2:16
I was so consumed with rage that he
2:18
wouldn't even meet my eyes that I almost
2:21
left right then and there. I finally
2:24
managed to ask him, "What the hell is
2:26
going on with you and my sister?" He sat
2:29
there for a few minutes, silent while I
2:31
was crying my eyes out, the tears
2:34
blurring my vision,
2:36
until I finally yelled at him to answer
2:38
me. He whispered two words that ripped
2:41
through me.
2:43
I love her. At this point, I completely
2:46
lost it. I started screaming, "How could
2:49
you do this to me? Do these past 10
2:51
years mean nothing to you?" I literally
2:54
dropped to my knees, pleading, "How
2:56
could you betray me with my own sister
2:58
and then tell me you love her?"
3:01
He was quiet the entire time, letting my
3:03
anguish fill the room until I finally
3:06
stopped yelling, exhausted and raw. Then
3:09
he spoke again. He said that he had been
3:12
regretting not experimenting with other
3:13
women before we got married and that he
3:16
shouldn't have married the first girl he
3:17
was with. I was stunned.
3:21
"Did you even ever love me?" I asked, my
3:24
voice barely a whisper. "He said yes,
3:27
but that after spending time with my
3:29
sister, he realizes she is who he wants
3:31
to be with." I had no words. My entire
3:35
life was falling apart in front of my
3:37
eyes, and I was terrified. In that
3:40
moment of absolute despair, a desperate,
3:42
almost subconscious thought surfaced. I
3:45
dropped a bombshell on him. I told him I
3:47
might be pregnant. It was the truth. We
3:51
had been trying for a while and I was
3:53
late. His reaction, however, was not
3:56
what I expected. He didn't freak out. He
3:58
said that he would support me. But then
4:01
he delivered the next crushing blow. He
4:04
said that he was leaving me to go be
4:06
with my sister. He apologized to me and
4:08
told me I deserved better than him and
4:11
that he would do whatever he could to
4:12
help me and the baby. And then came the
4:16
ultimate insult. If I agreed to divorce
4:18
him, he would give me everything.
4:21
He just wants out of our marriage. In
4:23
that moment, I felt like I hated him and
4:25
never wanted to see him again. So, I
4:28
screamed at him. Fine, just get the f
4:31
out. You ruined my life. I hope you are
4:33
effing happy, you piece of crap.
4:36
And then he had the audacity to try to
4:38
hug me. I flipped out and pushed him off
4:40
of me, recoiling from his touch.
4:43
Someone knocked on the door then,
4:45
interrupting the nightmare. He told me
4:47
that he still loved me and we would
4:49
figure everything out. And then he left
4:51
just like that. I decided to call my
4:54
parents and tell them what happened,
4:55
needing some anchor in the chaos. My
4:58
mom, instead of comfort, dropped another
5:01
bombshell on me. My sister had told her
5:03
a while ago that she had feelings for my
5:05
husband and wanted to be with him. My
5:07
own mother knew and hadn't told me. At
5:10
that moment, I was sitting on the
5:12
computer numbly looking up lawyers in my
5:14
area. I woke up this morning feeling
5:16
like complete crap, an emotional and
5:19
physical hangover.
5:21
I didn't want to get up. I finally
5:23
dragged myself to get a pregnancy test
5:26
and thank God I was not pregnant.
5:29
It was bittersweet because we had been
5:31
trying to get pregnant for a while now
5:33
and I never thought I'd be so glad to
5:35
see I wasn't pregnant. The thought of
5:38
bringing a child into this absolute
5:40
mess.
5:42
It was too much. A little while later, I
5:44
left the house to get groceries, my head
5:46
still spinning. When I opened my
5:48
mailbox, there was a letter in it from
5:51
Lisa. After I got home, I opened it and
5:54
read it. It was an apology of sorts. She
5:58
said that she was very vulnerable after
6:00
losing her husband and after spending so
6:02
much time with my husband. She started
6:05
to fall for him. She thought she
6:08
wouldn't ever love anyone else again. So
6:10
when she realized she loved my husband,
6:13
she knew she couldn't let him go. She
6:15
actually wrote that no one else can fill
6:17
the hole in her heart except him. Lisa
6:20
promised they never physically did
6:22
anything before that kiss I caught them
6:23
in. and she went on to say she needs me
6:26
in her life and that she hopes I can
6:28
forgive her. I can't write any more
6:31
about this right now. I was a mess. Rick
6:33
also called me a little while ago. I
6:36
didn't pick up the phone, so he texted
6:37
me. And guess what he said? He told me
6:40
that he still loves me and that we can
6:42
find a way to work this out. I don't
6:45
know what the that means since he
6:47
just left me for Lisa. Now I'm really
6:50
confused because now that I'm not
6:52
pregnant, I actually want to be. And I
6:55
want my marriage to not be over even
6:57
though I hate him for what he's done to
6:59
me. Why would he text me that? Is he
7:02
changing his mind? I'm so utterly
7:05
confused. I wish these past few days
7:08
never happened so there would be nothing
7:09
wrong still. I know I shouldn't forgive
7:12
him if he wants another chance, but 10
7:14
years of marriage, we were going to be
7:16
parents.
7:18
I'm so confused and hurt I can't even
7:20
think straight. I talked to my mother
7:22
again and this time she informed me that
7:25
she has known about my sister having a
7:27
thing for my husband for quite some
7:29
time. She didn't want to tell me she
7:31
said because she was trying to get my
7:33
sister to give up the idea and she did
7:36
not want me to be hurt. She apparently
7:38
got my sister to agree to let it go a
7:40
few months ago and never heard anything
7:42
more about it. So she thought it was
7:44
over. The level of deception in my own
7:47
family, it's sickening. In the letter I
7:51
got in the mail, I did not want to write
7:53
it all down because it was very painful.
7:55
But a few days has passed and I am ready
7:57
to share some more information.
8:00
In the letter, Lisa apologized for her
8:02
behavior, but also went on to blame me.
8:06
She said that I flaunted my happiness in
8:08
front of her with my husband.
8:10
She wrote she couldn't stand to see how
8:12
happy we were and how he genuinely loved
8:14
me and she had no one.
8:16
She also went on to say that my husband
8:18
told her he never really loved me and
8:21
that she was who he really wanted to be
8:23
with and asked me to not contact him.
8:26
She wants me to go through her if I want
8:28
to say anything to him and that she will
8:31
bring over the divorce papers in a few
8:33
weeks. My head spun trying to process
8:36
this. I have had a few days to process
8:39
this information, but the more I think
8:41
about it, the more confusing it seems to
8:43
me. And then I got more information
8:45
today.
8:47
Lisa is pregnant. She says it's Rick's.
8:50
Rick called me as soon as he heard my
8:52
father informed me. I picked up the
8:55
phone only because I wanted to hear how
8:57
he could lie to my face and tell me
8:59
nothing happened between them before
9:00
that kiss.
9:02
He told me that he was so sorry, and he
9:05
didn't want it to happen this way. that
9:07
my father wasn't supposed to tell me. I
9:09
started crying and asked him how he
9:11
could get pregnant with Lisa when we
9:13
were trying for a baby. Then he said
9:15
something that stunned me so much my
9:18
head is still spinning from it. Rick
9:20
told me he could still get me pregnant
9:22
if I wanted. I screamed at him. Why the
9:25
foss would I want to be pregnant with
9:27
your child when you are a piece of crap?
9:30
He then tried to explain himself. He
9:32
said that he wanted to be with both me
9:34
and my sister and that he thinks he is
9:36
polyamorous. I was so shocked that I
9:38
started laughing. A hysterical
9:40
disbelieving laugh. After I stopped
9:43
laughing, he tried to say something
9:45
else. Then I heard Lisa enter the room
9:48
and ask who he was on the phone with. He
9:51
said, "Nobody." And hung up. A little
9:55
later, my sister texted me and told me
9:57
she would bring over the divorce papers
9:59
in a week and expected me to sign them
10:01
on the spot as my husband is giving me
10:04
everything. She then gave me a heads up.
10:07
They are getting married next month and
10:10
I am invited to the wedding if I agree
10:12
to pretend like I was never even
10:14
romantically involved with my husband. I
10:17
am literally at such a loss right now.
10:20
Who the is this man? And where is
10:22
the one I married? Why the after
10:26
all this crap, do I still want to be
10:28
with him even though I know I can't be?
10:31
I just want the man I've been with for
10:33
the past 10 years back. I hate Lisa and
10:37
no longer consider her my sister. She
10:39
has ruined my entire life. But what do I
10:42
do about my husband? He just texted me
10:45
right now saying he still wants to be
10:47
with me, loves me, and wants a baby with
10:49
me. Why is he doing this to me? Why am I
10:52
even considering it? I am deeply ashamed
10:54
to write this and admit it. But after
10:57
Rick hung up that call, the offer got
10:59
more and more tempting.
11:01
I started thinking about it, becoming
11:03
enraged at my sister for doing what she
11:05
did to me, thinking that I could get
11:07
back at her by doing it, throwing it in
11:10
her face that her new boyfriend doesn't
11:12
love her more than me. After all, I was
11:15
so angry that I heavily considered doing
11:17
it. The more I thought about it, the
11:20
more I wanted to out of sheer petty
11:22
revenge.
11:24
Don't get me wrong, I also wanted my
11:26
husband and my life back. But the
11:28
thought of seeing my sister's newfound
11:30
happiness and smuggness over me come
11:32
crashing down gave me a pleasure that I
11:34
never would have imagined. My sister
11:36
tried very hard to keep my contact with
11:38
Rick limited. I think she was afraid he
11:41
would come back to me if she didn't. She
11:43
was only able to accomplish this for a
11:45
few months. Rick tried to contact me in
11:48
numerous ways during this time, but it
11:50
was always very brief. I was still angry
11:53
and non-receptive to his advances, but
11:56
he started becoming more and more
11:57
aggressive, telling me how much he loved
12:00
me, how much he missed me, and how much
12:03
he still wanted me. I even tried
12:05
blocking him on certain social media
12:07
accounts, but he kept trying on others.
12:10
I know I should have just blocked him on
12:12
everything, but I just couldn't. The
12:14
more he tried, the harder it was for me
12:16
to say no. Unfortunately, this resulted
12:19
in us getting back together.
12:21
I told him I wouldn't stay with him
12:23
unless he left my sister. He swore to me
12:26
up and down he loved me more than
12:28
anything, and that facing losing me made
12:30
him realize it, and that my sister was
12:33
nothing to him. Everything was amazing
12:36
between us again. It was like old times,
12:39
and like my sister didn't even exist
12:41
when he was with me. Yet every night he
12:45
would go back to her. Stupidly, I
12:48
decided to believe him when he said he
12:49
was just waiting for the right time and
12:51
excuse after excuse about how bad he
12:53
felt for her. Things felt so much better
12:56
when he was back with me. I didn't want
12:59
to lose him again. Unfortunately, I
13:02
ended up getting pregnant because I did
13:04
not recont continue my birth control
13:06
from when we were trying for a child
13:08
before any of this happened. At the
13:10
time, we were both ecstatic and
13:13
everything seemed like it was a dream
13:14
come true. I had my husband back. We
13:17
were having a child and my life was no
13:20
longer in pieces.
13:22
I was so happy that I turned a blind eye
13:24
to everything obviously messed up about
13:26
the situation.
13:28
I didn't want to see it. I just wanted
13:31
to stay happy. It wasn't long before
13:33
Lisa found out and my entire family
13:35
turned on me. My parents told me how it
13:38
seems like I did this just out of
13:40
retaliation and to hurt Lisa.
13:43
They weren't completely wrong, but I
13:45
mainly just wanted my old life back.
13:48
Long story short, Lisa went absolutely
13:50
berserk. She threatened to unalive me
13:53
and sent me a long list of neverending
13:55
harassing texts, emails, and calls. I
13:59
endured hell from her and my family for
14:00
months until I had to get a protective
14:02
order. This only resulted in my family
14:05
hating me even more.
14:07
Now, none of them will speak to me. And
14:09
Rick, Rick has been issued an ultimatum
14:12
by them. Cut me off or be cut off from
14:15
the family himself.
14:17
He hasn't decided on what he is going to
14:18
do yet, but it seems like he is leaning
14:21
towards cutting me off as he has been
14:23
communicating with me less and less
14:24
these past weeks. Not to mention, there
14:28
has been mounting pressure from the
14:29
family for him to finalize the divorce.
14:32
But it hasn't happened for various
14:34
reasons. The last thing he told me was
14:37
that he feels badly, but that he loves
14:40
her and passive aggressively insinuated
14:42
that I tempted him into trying to get
14:44
back with me, which is complete bull
14:47
crap because he was the one who kept
14:49
pursuing me. He even said that I
14:51
shouldn't have gotten pregnant because
14:53
now I've made his life so much harder.
14:55
How I let myself believe he was the man
14:57
I married again is beyond me. Now all I
15:01
see is how clouded my judgment has been
15:03
and the utter mess I've gotten myself
15:05
into.
15:07
How I wanted to be happy again so badly.
15:10
I destroyed my life even more trying to
15:12
get that back. I'm 8 months pregnant and
15:15
scared. I don't know how I can raise
15:18
this baby alone. I really don't want to
15:21
give her up for adoption. And the pain
15:23
of losing my husband twice is
15:25
unbearable.
15:26
Even though I know it was because of my
15:28
own stupidity,
15:30
I still love him and can't believe
15:32
everything he has done to me. Losing my
15:35
entire family over this has also been a
15:36
huge kick when I'm at rock bottom. Most
15:40
of our mutual friends have distanced
15:41
themselves from us because no one wants
15:43
to take sides. But it's obvious they are
15:46
all quite disgusted with the way things
15:47
have turned out. I have no one left now.
15:50
This story is a heartbreaking cautionary
15:52
tale about the devastating ripple
15:54
effects of betrayal. the allure of toxic
15:57
relationships and the desperate, often
15:59
self-destructive ways we try to reclaim
16:02
what we've lost.
16:04
It's a raw look at how easily we can be
16:07
manipulated by our own desires for
16:08
happiness and revenge and the profound
16:11
cost of losing not just a partner but an
16:15
entire family.
