Today, I was out and was having a wonderful time. At exactly midnight, I get a call from my father. He's divorcing my mother. He's also going to Florida with his mistress for the weekend. If that wasn't the best news ever, he'd love if I found an apartment to live in ASAP. FML

Today, I watched my mother's heart break. She found out, my siblings (20F and 18M), who've ignored her for years, have been adopted by our stepmother. She received said news the same way we found out my younger brother enlisted, and from the only place we get pics of him and my sister: her abusive ex-husband's Facebook page. FML

You're not seriously allowing all this right? Stand up for your rights! ('Get up stand up, stand up for your rights. Get up stand up, don't give the fight.' Sorry, the song just immediately popped up in my head while writing this. Now it's stuck with you too :D )

wow... I'm genuinely sorry your mom is so self-centered. ask any psychologist or relationship expert, what your mom did is wrong and very narcissistic

Your mother sounds like a true narcissist. You need to find a way to be out, preferably on your own, as soon as possible. If she's this egotistical and dismissive of your feelings, she's no doubt harmed you in other ways.

I don't know what to think, this sounds like the mother just ******* over the kid, but if he didn't know until 30 min before going to the airport, theres got to be some avoidance/lack of communication that could be from either side.

wow. that's harsh. I wouldve flipped and told my mom that given the circumstances, I have every right to keep my room because she neglected to inform me about the remarriage and the family that comes with it. so either I get to keep my room- without needing to even share it- or I'm leaving. OP- stand up and take what you deserve!

Why has no one pointed out that in most states until you're 18 and the new step-brother is 18 you have to have your own bedroom with a regular door. If OP is underage her mom can't give away her room legally. If OP is older than 18 she needs to grow up and get a job and move out.

Wow, never heard that one before! I doubt anyone follows that- and a door is never required, mine was removed several times with strangers in the house.
