Having fully supported her stepsister through her illness in her youth, she is horrified to find out that she’s cheated on her with her own boyfriend. When her parents threaten to cut her off, she tells them she refuses to accept illness as an excuse for her behavior.
A Close Bond
The woman’s father married her step-sister’s mother when the woman was 4, and her stepsister was 3. They lived together for most of their lives and became a solid family. The woman and her stepsister were extremely close.
A Cruel Illness
Her stepsister developed cancer when she was 14 years old and was sick for about two years. It was a really difficult time for the family, but as they were close they supported each other. She’s since made a full recovery.
Over Protective Parents
During that time, the woman’s parents became understandably over-protective of her stepsister, and everything revolved around her recovery. She was extremely understanding of this.
Immense Pressure
They also asked a lot of the woman during this period. She had to quit her extracurricular activities so she could get a job, and the money went towards her stepsister’s medical bills. She would also drive her to appointments.
She Made Sacrifices
The woman didn’t go to dances or parties and any other fun activities she needed to include her stepsister. She did almost all of this willingly, the exception being having to quit her high school volleyball team. She did throw a bit of a tantrum about that but was swiftly punished.
Didn’t Think She Asked a Lot
The volleyball incident was the only time that the woman had an issue. It was something she was passionate about and felt upset having to stop doing it. Having one emotional breakdown seemed pretty chill to her, given the circumstances.
She Falls in Love
When the woman went to college, she met a guy called Ben in her junior year. Their relationship blossomed and they they fell in love. They eventually moved in together when they graduated.
Finding Her Freedom
They’d been living together for about three years, and everything seemed to be going brilliantly. They were serious about each other and had even discussed getting married in the future. She was happy to have the freedom she’d lacked in her teenage years.
A Massive Betrayal
One day when she returned home, the house was quiet. She’d expected Ben to be there, so she went upstairs looking for him. When she walked into her bedroom, she was horrified to see him in bed with her sister.
She Kicks Him Out
She broke off the relationship straight away. Many tears were shed from both sides as he kept apologizing. She refused to accept him back, eventually telling him he had to leave. Her sister also apologized for what she’d done.
A Suprise Request
After the apology from her sister, the woman noticed that she backed off. She thought she was giving her space until she called one day and asked if they could meet up. She assumed it would be another apology.
A Shocking Admission
Her stepsister told her that she and Ben were in love and were just telling her as a courtesy before they started posting photos online. The woman was absolutely shocked to the core, totally taken aback at the admission.
Leaves Her Stranded
Distraught, the woman grabbed her purse and left her stepsister in the restaurant by herself. She hadn’t paid her portion of the bill. Her sister later had the cheek to ask for the money she owed!
They Take Her Side
The stepsister told her parents who then called the woman to their house. They told her how disappointed they were for not supporting her sister’s relationship with Ben. They brought up the fact that because she had cancer as a teenager, she never learned proper social etiquette and had a hard time meeting people.
A Lame Excuse
The woman didn’t buy this, in part because she’d seen her socialize just fine. Since they’d spent a good chunk of the time that she was sick together, that would also surely mean that she should have bad social skills as well, using that logic!
Threaten to Cut Her Off
Her parents then told her that if she didn’t accept her sister and Ben’s relationship, they may have to cut all contact with her. They said that she should be supportive of her sister’s happiness.
A Lack of Logic
The woman argued that she wanted her stepsister to be happy, but that she cheated with her own boyfriend! She reminded them that she was also their daughter, and they should try to understand her point of view. They were adamant that she was just jealous!
Saddened by Her Sister
The woman knew that she didn’t want to be with a cheater. What upset her most was the fact that her sister chose Ben over her. She slept with HER boyfriend knowing that they were in a long-term, committed relationship.
A Broken Relationship
Her stepsister continues to be with Ben, knowing how much it hurts her sister. The woman has vowed to cut contact with her stepsister. It deeply upsets her, but after being such a supportive sister to her, she can’t forgive what she’s done.
