In this story, a 16-year-old girl shares her troubling experiences with her stepmother, who is 25 years old. She has a close relationship with her father, who has consistently prioritized her well-being in past relationships. However, the dynamics within her family began to shift when her father introduced his new girlfriend, who later became her stepmother. Despite initially liking her, the teenager began to notice unsettling behavior from her stepmother.
The story takes an alarming turn when the stepmother decides to buy a house with the father, even before they are officially dating. This sudden commitment raises concerns about the nature and speed of their relationship, which may be unsettling for OP.
OP describes feeling strange and invasive energy in her room ever since her father and stepmother got married in late 2022. She suspects that someone has been going through her belongings, but she rules out her father or the stepmother’s kids as the culprits. This feeling of violation intensifies when she discovers her hidden se* toys placed on her bed, and later, pictures of her and her father torn apart and a snack wrapper from her trash intentionally placed on her bed. These incidents deeply unsettle the OP, leaving her with the impression that her stepmother may be trying to drive her out of her father’s life.
Fearing for her safety and privacy, the teenager eventually confides in her father, who responds by threatening divorce if her stepmother’s intrusive behavior doesn’t stop. Now OP wants to know whether she’s an A-hole for getting her parents divorced
1. OP has been noticing weird things about her stepmom for about a year
2. OP’s dad met her stepmom a year and a half ago, she’s been through a divorce with 2 younger kids, OP told users that she seemed nice when OP first met her and OP was expecting that she would disappear like other girls but she stayed.
3. OP started noticing that something was not right, she noticed that her room had been gone through moreover, she knew that it wasn’t her dad because he values her privacy and it could not be the stepmother’s kid because they were often with their dad.
4. OP’s suspicions came true when she came home and found out that her s** toys were lying on the bed even though she had hidden them, that’s not it a couple of days after she found a picture of her and her dad torn apart on the bed.
5. When OP told her dad what’s been going on he threatened her to divorce if she doesn’t stop doing this weird thing, Now OP wants to know whether she’s an A-hole for telling him.
6. Her attitude reflects that she is not mentally stable
7. Exactly, this user is right. Afterall OP’s dad needs to know what she’s like and what she has been doing.
8. OP is truly NTA and the fact that this had been going on with her sounds psychotic to this user and she cannot be more right!
9. That’s why they say don’t judge a book by its cover
10. We hope that the dad makes a sound decision!
11. This user suggested that this issue needs to be addressed otherwise, she will get away with this, and eventually things will get even worse.
12. OP is definitely NTA
13. What she did is weird as well as psychotic! Father deserved to know this about her
14. Users were worried about OP and most of them thought that the lady was psychotic and the issue needed to be addressed to Dad ASAP
15. OP’s feelings being unsafe are totally genuine
16. Not even a single person said that OP’s an A-hole, now we really know who’s the A-hole here.
17. OP should consider getting a bolt lock for her bedroom
