It gets funnier again when she tells the whole courtroom story (pretty serious stuff) and ends with "i was wondering if the eatable i had before, to calm my nerves, was fucking with me"😂

[@violetcwest]

For everyone in the replies who is confused: there are several parts to the story. The video picks up basically midway through. She has a son from a previous relationship and a crazy family that’s currently serving time for all they did to her and her first kid. She met Bill and he was like her knight in shining armor, he helped her a lot during this time. She married Bill twice, she got back with him the second time because he was acting like a good man and father, but then they were having issues and divorced a second time amicably. The first divorce, he claimed he cheated because she seems to attract crazy and it was getting to him. This is where the story picks up, after the second divorce. Source: I followed the story on Reddit while she was posting it and managed to remember the story.

[@Nathan_Bookwurm]

Thx for the clarification. Now I understand. I also kept getting confused with the name Bill (since I'm only listening while doing other stuff, not reading). Since MIL and Bill were often together I kept thinking OP meant "brother in law". But the story didn't make sense at all that way.

I liked her response to the AP - she knew why she had called and wanted no more of her but used the information all the same.

[@SapphireExile]

I wish it didn't cause OP so much pain to finally get some justice with Ex-MIL, but I'm really happy Ex-MIL's true colors came out in court where she could be held accountable for her psychotic behavior. I even said to myself "If the mom agrees to let them take her baby to Greece, she'll never see her kid again because this woman's fking unhinged". I'm happy OP had the common sense and motherly instincts to not agree to that. Ex-MIL needs constant 24/7 monitoring because something tells me that she's not done with OP and her kids yet. It might've been the "OP will see" comment.

Not trying to rag on you, but divorce is literally not allowed in the Catholic Church. Why call yourself Catholic if your views don't align with the views of the church?

[@Zaniya3]

Roman Catholic are the ones who don’t bash remarriage and such; the churches that gets visitors from the Vatican and sometimes the pope himself. But there’s a catholic branch, that calls themselves catholic but have christianity beliefs and views. (Both religions started to mix from experience speaking. I grew up Roman Catholic, but when I went to high school I went far away, family wanted a better school prospects, I had a catholic who had christianity beliefs. I’m not religious now, but I still help my family with church events; my family co-owns a Roman Catholic Church, as a ex boarding school owns the other half; it was stationed their by the Vatican over a hundred years ago, but it became its own entity in 1980s; it makes it’s own decisions while still under the Vatican.)

Who takes an edible before going into court that is one of the worst things I have ever heard

[@oliverstray1040]

In some states they are completely legal; My thought is she is in a state where weed or THC products are legal. In most states, they are conditionally legal because laws have not been made about hemp. In these states, while marijuana may be outlawed, the compound THC may not be, meaning so long as you derive the compound from something else (like hemp) it is perfectly legal to sell products that give you the same effect.

- OP had an abusive home life. Mother was EXTREMELY abusive and her brother cut all her hair off at one one point. - OP had a son (Brandon) with some guy. That relationship didn’t last. - OP met and married Bill. Bill cheated on OP during their marriage and they divorced. - Bill convinced OP that he had changed and they reconciled and remarried. - OP got pregnant with her second son. MIL contacted OP’s mom and brought her back into OP’s life. The mom’s abuse of OP resumed and OP regressed in her healing and couldn’t deal with the trauma. - Bill divorced OP because he couldn’t handle OP during this trauma phase. It’s later revealed that he started cheating on OP during this time as well. - OP is able to pick herself back up after cutting off her mom again, but MIL starts abusing OP because she blames OP for the divorce. - OP starts working at the gentleman’s club to earn money. Bill is supportive of OP in the beginning but does very little to rein his mother in. FIL does nothing to rein MIL in. - Bill outs his own affair during their second marriage and decides he wants nothing to do with the kids or OP anymore. MIL and FIL temporarily cut Bill off and ask to still be part of the kid’s lives. - MIL asks OP if she can take her youngest to Greece for a year. OP obviously refuses. - OP starts dating Kyle (the bouncer) and Bill flips out when he finds out. Bill tries to confront OP at the club but is kicked out before he can get to her. - OP becomes a dancer at the club and is attacked by Bill during the club’s Christmas party after he arrived with his parents. Bill is arrested and MIL and FIL are trespassed from the club. - Bill’s AP contacts OP and tells her about the abuse she endured from Bill and MIL. OP blocks her but marks her statement as evidence. - OP files for RO against MIL, who makes a spectacle of things at court. Bill throws MIL under the bus and blames HER for everything. FIL announces that MIL has dementia that she has been refusing treatment for. MIL assaults FIL and is arrested. - Bill and FIL move back to their home state to put their lives back together. OP is now at peace.

[@ceilingturtles]

Some people make mistakes. some people want to see the good in others and she wanted to believe there was still good in the man she loved. She said plenty but judging by your comments of her choice of job that she is doing because she is trying to earn money to make sure her children arent in poverty, you were going to refuse to listen to anything she said any way. She was not entertaining him a 3rd time. she had at least one child with the guy and he was more than happy to be a father to her oldest son who she had with someone else so she was staying in his life so the kids could have their father.

I don't really care about this story you just never upload things usually around this time Tell no Tales and I need something to keep me up. Taking care of 2 kids isn't impressive to me. They do seem like they are overreacting and honestly all they are doing is stepping over themselves from what I can see I feel like they are closer to crazy or an issue than they may seem I see this a lot. Another thing is I don't think they are truly happy at least where I am in the video this is a technique I feel like I even use you pretend or want something so much that you make it a fake reality you're able to trick yourself into happiness even if it's for a short while. While the man is wrong here that's another thing that is wrong with this OP the lack of taking care of themselves means some of what is said here isn't wrong. They ruined their own life and will be part of the reason why people split away but only ever started truly doing things when they were split when they were forced to it's like they wasted their life being worse than they could be and now they'll never be the best they could be only a level or few below that. It feels ironic. They tell the Mother that using Religion as a crutch is essentially holding them back from improving and yet it feels like they are using their Trauma as the same thing that they aren't facing things head on it feels like they aren't facing their Trauma knowing how their character seems to be more like they are moving to the side of it and attacking it then running away and calling it a victory. That doesn't work from the perspective of the parent it usually doesn't matter to quite a degree what kind of adult your child becomes what you feel bad about is that fact that you are supposed to lead them down a path for them to go down such an opposite and worse path that simply the opposites makes you wonder where you made the mistake where should you have pushed, taught the right things, or what you failed to do there is a level of adults who genuienly ruin their lives late enough that parents seldom feel anything but when it comes to a personality like this unless they were like 60-80 that's certainly quite a shock. Even if I'm wrong I always try to analyze. From the way they post I feel they have another thing I know about the living in a dream mentality it's subtle and slight but it's like very easy to ignore small thing that can turn into bigger things later when you live in this kinda mentality things can simply "disappear" not only from your cognition but out of your memory completely and be replaced with fake memories which only stirs up more issues. It's so easy to see the darkness inside this one. The lack of trust that exists in both. I wonder if I can even trust this whole story or this person at all the way they type the way they supposedly act and everything feels like it could really just be their hope. EDIBLE???? Who the hell are you? Something is off...

[@velco941]

This sorry sounds so strange, it sounds full of holes It would be good to have the version of the husband, I assume it would go something along the line of "I got catfished, I thought she loved me, I loved her too despite her already having one fatherless child but now we have 2 kids and she refuses to do anything at home, she never spend time with either our children or me. I resigned on our marriage and got into a fling on the side, then my wife used this as an excuse to get a beneficial divorce. Because I come from a good family the child support she gets from me is huge. After the divorce she kept living with us and I accepted it since I thought it was better for the children but despite that I kept having a romantic life on the side. One day she discovered it and threw a fit, since I had kept my parents in the dark regarding most of our problems as a couple (mainly because they are heavily religious and I didn't wanted to break their hearts) she managed to make it seem as if I was a cheater. Then she fled with my children, although I'm not even sure they are mine... she refuses to give the guard of them to either me or my family... because of that the children are growing in a house in which there mother is always out either workout, learning how to dance on a pole or actively riding one... because of the child support and the fact that she is still young she has enough money but I'm not sure if the children are well taken care of or if she spends everything on herself.... I don't know what to do"

This story is obviously fake af, that’s why it sounds strange and is full of plot holes.

[@gloomyadolescent1234]

You're fucking insane, this story is obviously fake but if it was real no reasonable person would have sympathy for the husband. Bro was a serial cheater and abandoned his two kids, he then physically assaulted his ex and current partners. It would be sad if even basement dwelling redditers were such misogynists to be against op, like yourself, but ig I wouldn't be surprised.

As someone who followed OPs updates since this whole thing started i have to frown at the 1st 2 sentences. No, you don't attract crazy people, you make stup!d decisions, e.g refusing to cut toxic people out of your life and being constantly high, and you keep reaping the consequences. Still can't get over the fact that people were stealing from your GP and you did nothing... You deserve everything you get.

[@HippieInHeart]

"You deserve everything you get" I don't think that being naive and trustful is such an incredibly wrong thing that it warrants the punishment of being stolen from and abused for such a long time.

She doesn't want to have religion in her childrens' lives because that will be indoctrinating them? That's also a form of indoctrination. It's stupid people think that atheism is the default position when it's really not. There is no such thing as a default or neutral position in things like religion.

[@kittyle8]

she meant that she doesnt want the inlaws to convert them to any religion, she later said that if they do want to go to religion, it should be their choice

[@zelz3011]

Yes there could be it's called not dealing with it at all. Or telling your kids all the time to make their own choices they could follow in the footsteps but unless it's beneficial not many kids genuinely follow the steps of their parents job, dream, and in other facets of life wise sometimes having the same job is only because you couldn't get your dream and it's convenient you have someone to introduce you and it pays enough. In the same way religion shouldn't be forced and less talking about it and always giving the choice when the kids ask is better than just forcing them to believe your side. If you try to make them religious on your side it's possible you are indoctrinating. If you make them completely hate the other sides it could be the same. The end result isn't always going to be what you want but if you just try to truly be more neutral about it you can create an existence where they can choose whatever path they want. I constantly see excuses like this just because "Well uh I don't see enough people joining religion." And it could just be that they know enough and decide it isn't for them I feel like the opposite of that however where I see I feel like too many people join religion when they weren't inherently religious it's not like religion is this all encompassing one thing there is far more than 1 and many interpretations it's also something that heavily affects like and it makes sense why for some it might be hard to get in or out of. So I disagree on what you say. Would I trust OP to truly be neutral? NO! But I do think a neutral exists and that's because I feel I've lived it.
