The nephew from the 1st story's life is fucked. Basically he unintentionally ratted out his greedy mother and grandmother and since OP now knows and is no longer being their ATM they will blame that kid for making them lose so much money
Idk why people get serious like that. One partner is exhausting but two full time one is too much. People must not have lives or responsiblities to juggle two relationships.
@@Kris-wo4pj From what I heard is poly people believe that humans weren't meant to be monogamous because of feelings and attraction. I'm personally a monogamous person myself and don't get it, so I guess I can't relate. (Edit: It honestly just sounds like an excuse to cheat to me)
Story 3: 2 selfish AH's destroyed a family and drove a poor woman to suicide. "None of this was worth it." Too bad they couldn't have had the clairvoyance before starting their affair to realize that. Honestly, I hope none of those kids speak to the dad or wannabe-stepmom ever again.
Story 2: yeah, marrying her seems like a TERRIBLE idea. Boundary stomping to this level, followed by an attempt to brush off assault. Her not seeing how bad it was in the dark is irrelevant. She is delusional, and this sort of thing WILL happen again. It’s just a matter of time.
Story 3: Man, this has to be one of the only times I can say someone (specifically a mistress) was genuinely remorseful about an affair. However, the damage is already done. Their mom isn’t coming back and unfortunately, this is going to be trauma these children have to live with for the rest of their lives. I’m glad the stepmom left not just out of guilt but while thinking of the children’s healing process. It’d be much harder to cope with the constant reminder of dad’s affair in their face, trying to move on like nothing happened. The dad is honestly the worst. Not only did he cheat but instead of giving everyone time to adjust, he springs the idea of marrying his affair partner so soon. It wouldn’t be fair to blame him for her suicide but his betrayal and selfishness clearly played a major factor in her decision. I hope he’ll never treat anyone else like he treated to their mom.
The AP was the only one who apologized (whether she meant it or not), but dad only apologized when he no longer had anything. He purposely rubbed his affair in his ex’s face just to stroke his own ego.
I had to disagree with you on not blaming the father. He is to blame when he nonchalantly introduced his affair partner to his kids not long after the divorce and smugly went to deliver the news of him marrying his mistress to his ex. He is salty and he knows it. Just so you know, it is not a crime to guide a s**c*dal person toward a ledge but it is a crime to push them off. So this man did just that, Not a crime, but a perfect m*rder.
Yes… me too …I can never comprehend this “open relationship ” thing….so I’ve decided never to even think about it in any relationship …and if my partner suggests such a thing…I only decided for one option and that is breakup
Yeah, it's a lot of drama but this is the healthiest I've ever seen a polyamorous relationship. Definitely hope if they get married it becomes monogamous because they seem like perfect fits for one another.
That’s the problem with some open relationships, the other partner prioritises their sexual partners feelings, wants and needs over their bf/gf who they live with.
Story 3: Jeez dude, if you're going to secretly cheat, divorce, and then make your affair public at least wait a while to do the proposal! People will kill over that or harm themselves, in your case it was your ex-wife! Like I get it, you want to move on quickly but don't move on that quickly, you just ruined your whole life in just a month! (P.S. I don't condone cheating and I'm not trying to give him notes just this whole situation went from 0-100 very fast)
IDK how polyamory works but I'm guessing she's more attached to OP than she is too Gary. Gary is her second boyfriend and is her time to have fun when OP's not around, in other words I guess he's the side chick/side dude meanwhile OP is the real deal, the main course, the big meal, the dinner, etc. Again, I'm just guessing as I have no idea how polyamory works
@@jamesplayzreviews I don’t have any idea about polyamory too…except for the stories I hear on media…and with the things I hear most of the time …I can’t bring myself to even comprehend why people want this “open relationship ”.

They do work long term. Clara has no respect, and gary was just toxic. My wife and I have been open for 9 years, married for 5 of them. We've never had drama like that. She'd never cancel one of our nights for a rando, neither would I.
I clicked the video thinking I’d feel bad for the guy. Then the story started and I heard the words open relationship. You brought this on yourself, hopefully the experience shows that this is not a viable long term relationship strategy
Second story ummm if he wants someone to build a life with maybe he shouldn't be in a poly relationship and maybe he needs to I don't know date women looking for the same thing smh and 🤣🤣🤣
I think the mistress is remorseful, because she actually broke up with the father. That shows she’s willing to forego the benefits she derived from her evil deed. The father, meanwhile, is just sad that he might face consequences for his actions. If his kids weren’t mad at him, and if the mistress didn’t leave him, he’d still be happy with his life.
I don't know why people think they can just easily contest a will if they don't like what it contains. Wills are not so easy to successfully contest. There are only a few reasons a will can be invalidated. Not liking that someone didn't leave you anything isn't one of them.
S2, marrying her would be a mistake. He just had a major trust issue problem with him, and she has made it clear that if she feels closer to someone else she Will take their side over him, probably even leaving him.
I swear reddit and the true crime shows/podcasts are the why I choose to stay single. The mental hoops people jump through to justify staying with shitty partners is mind boggling. Oop from story 2 is tragically gonna wind up either in the hospital or 6ft under, because he kept sticking by a woman who clearly wants her violent stalker over him.
"Story 1: "In my defense, neither of us have ever thought about it." Well, THAT'S bullsh1t. Considering how fast the GF agreed, I'm betting she's been ready to go since about the 2nd year of your relationship. She was just confident enough in herself, his love for her, & in both his loyalty to her & her fidelity to him that she was willing to wait an extra 11 years for him to finally pop the question. Which means she is NOT a cheater!
With the kinds of stories I’ve heard, I was legitimately expecting Clara to dump OP and leave him for Gary only to potentially regret it later, but I was pleasantly surprised that she actually realized just how much of a vile POS he was and left him for good
I was unpleasantly surprised that OP took back the chick who used OP as a personal maid and a bank account, and then took the side of the guy who attacked him
Story 1. If only I could find a gal like OP's fiancee. I would actually take the leap... But I dont roll natural 20s, soo.... Story 2. Due to the nature of humans it makes sense that open relationship inevitably implode. The only ones that last due so because they are supported by the backs of their emotionally broken children. Truly, it just foolish.
Story 2 is just madness haha, I have no intention of even coming close to understanding what goes on in the minds of people who are in poly relationships, but god damn that story was wild.
We all agree Gary was 100% an abuser waiting to happen for her? He was trying to control her, almost worked but when got push back went to her work and smashed glass in there being taken out by security, then when he got more push back for that he demanded she spoke to him and then got physically violent with op. Op did her the biggest favour stopping it where it was when he did
Story 3: logically it's simple argument to make (though obvs harder in person) oldest needed to (probably did) explain to dad, he was cause of this, they needed time to properly heal. With cousin, they can do that and possibly fix relationship with him in future. If he forces them to stay, they will just resent him more, have a constant reminder of what he did, and when they turn 18 he loses them all completely.
Story 3: the father is absolutely wrong, and should be ashamed of himself. As for the affair partner, she just walked away?! B****! Obviously, she shouldn't have been there in the first place, but the OP is good for staying so calm. Hopefully they and their siblings can move forward...
Story 2: She should've never gotten involved with this Gary guy, this is why polyamorous relationships aren't a good idea. No offense to any poly people out there but things like this are my stance on that type of relationship. No matter how hard you try, eventually someone is gonna get jealous and it's all gonna go to crap. At least the girlfriend realized the screw up once she saw OP's bloodied face
I don’t have any idea of polyamory …except for stories I hear on internet And I genuinely can’t begin to understand why people want these “open relationships ” I can never understand the concept of fu**** g multiple people but being in love with someone else (This is not me taking a jab at people in such relationships…I’m genuinely confused why people do this )
@@agirlwithglasses246 *shrug* because humans are at their core a species that relishes community. And to do monogamy seems more detrimental than anything else with how high divorce rates are. Flip a coin. That's how high your chances are of getting divorced, or at the very least unhappy. Studies show that kids raised with more than two parental figures actually grow up with more fleshed out and worldly views. And . . . Brass tacks. I'm not jealous of my girlfriend's husband. One time we got caught getting saucy in a Discord call by someone joining the call, when we both went quiet she asked 'what happened?' and I heard her husband call out 'They got horny on main!' through my girlfriend's mic and the one that joined got flustered and disconnected before we both laughed.
Oh, look, another open relationship that worked out spectacularly. All these people who say they work. I call BS. When someone truly has the mental and emotional health and maturity to love, they don't want to risk their physical health, self-respect, or the dignity of their partner by allowing them to get plowed by another man while they plow another woman. There's a lack of love and respect to need other people to keep you satisfied. And if you think it works long term, look at sister wives, they thought that set up would work long term too... (and it did. Many many years) until he found someone he actually liked and respected, so it all fell apart. The only difference between story 2 and story 3 is the illusion that it's not cheating cause it's consensual 🤷♀️ But you do you.
OP should have never did an open relationship in the first place, than maybe he would have not gotten punched by Gary. OP should have broken up with the girlfriend for trying to convince OP to not press charges against Gary. For the last story OP should use the dad to let OP and his brother stay with the cousin, than block the dad after they are able to apply for guardianship. The mom’s death was all the dad’s fault for breaking his wedding vows before the divorce
Never agreed with polygamory and I see everything outside of a couple (as in a side chick/dude) as adultery, i wouldnt harrass other people about it as thats not my business just my personal choice, but regardless of my opinion any assault is unacceptable. She sounds like shes been a victim of emotional abuse and controlling behaviour, get her counselling and press charges against her ex as soon as possible.
Agreed, IDK why people think polyamory is a good idea. One partner is hard enough, now you want to add more?! Good luck remembering everything about everyone without getting things mixed up. One reason I've heard for polyamory (it honestly just sounds like an excuse to cheat) is that "humans weren't meant to be monogamous because of attraction and feelings"
First story : we have a grown ass man in his 40 who is unable to know that he has been used as a cash cow by his family. Sorry but you don’t need to be a genius to know that people can be greedy even in our own family. If you dont’t have the self awareness needed to protect yourself and to stand up for yourself, then you deserve what is coming for you. Second story : as soon as OP said that he was in a open relashionship, i was out. These people always think that their are the smartest, just to find out that they are deluding themselves. Your girlfriend met a new fuck buddy and she start to ditch you for him, and you didn’t see what will be coming ? Come on ! And even after all of the BS, the dude is still willing to marry her. Some people won’t learn.
S1: I 100% understand why you & girlfriend didnt feel the need to marry: love is love whether you have a piece of paper on not, but i think its the right call.. Your family are heartless AHs..
Why would the boss in the second story take such hard measures on the girl over someone else making a ruckus at work? It genuinely is not her fault even if they were in a relationship, its not like she made him do that.
Story 2 - OP's a sucker get rid of Clara, she's just another user, no body seems to make open relationships last in the long run, get into a relationship with someone who puts you first. Open relationships are really just FWB it's not a committed relationship. Stop being a sucker.
OP nooooo dude whilst its nice to have multi options for nookie. But honestly Clara Wanted cake and eat it too. Gary wanted a GF but not the whole thing. THE TWO OF THEM DESERVE each other. OP 2 should find a nice couple to thruple with or be realidthes gonna get pied by Clara for any other guy again and again.
Story 2. Girlfriend brought this on herself. She was trying to have her cake and eat it too. She was using Op for her lifestyle. She should have been honest with Gary as well. Telling him she loved him was a mistake. Gary doesn't want to share. This mess is a trainwreck. These idiots deserve each other.
@jamestown8398 0 seconds ago Story #1 I wish OP and his fiancée happiness together, away from his ghoulish blood relatives. They valued money more than his life. Story #2 OP is too good for Clara. She doesn’t deserve a partner like him. Story #3 If I was OP, I would have disowned the father over this and legally changed my surname to the late mother’s maiden name. “From this day, we are no longer family. I won’t have anything to do with you or go to your funeral when you die. I hope your wh@re is worth losing your child over.” I would have told the mistress that every day she stays with my father disproves all claim of remorse, because it’s her trying to have her cake and eat it too. If OP reconciles with his father then it’ll be a betrayal of his mother’s memory.
The nephew from the 1st story's life is fucked. Basically he unintentionally ratted out his greedy mother and grandmother and since OP now knows and is no longer being their ATM they will blame that kid for making them lose so much money
Greedy vultures tend to be impatient and say things they don’t want the victim to know about.
they'll be fine

Never agreed with polygamory and I see everything outside of a couple (as in a side chick/dude) as adultery, i wouldnt harrass other people about it as thats not my business just my personal choice, but regardless of my opinion any assault is unacceptable. She sounds like shes been a victim of emotional abuse and controlling behaviour, get her counselling and press charges against her ex as soon as possible.
Agreed, IDK why people think polyamory is a good idea. One partner is hard enough, now you want to add more?! Good luck remembering everything about everyone without getting things mixed up. One reason I've heard for polyamory (it honestly just sounds like an excuse to cheat) is that "humans weren't meant to be monogamous because of attraction and feelings"
First story : we have a grown ass man in his 40 who is unable to know that he has been used as a cash cow by his family. Sorry but you don’t need to be a genius to know that people can be greedy even in our own family. If you dont’t have the self awareness needed to protect yourself and to stand up for yourself, then you deserve what is coming for you.
Second story : as soon as OP said that he was in a open relashionship, i was out. These people always think that their are the smartest, just to find out that they are deluding themselves. Your girlfriend met a new fuck buddy and she start to ditch you for him, and you didn’t see what will be coming ? Come on ! And even after all of the BS, the dude is still willing to marry her. Some people won’t learn.
Story 2.
That's why ooen relationships and polyamory are complicated and disgusting.
I cabt really see the difference between an open relationship and just being ftiends with benefits, or roommates who have sex sometimes
Story 2: Example #17,495,678,900,385 of why poly relationships are an idiotic pipe dream that will never work out.
The girl in story 2 should just leave for Gary.
S1: I 100% understand why you & girlfriend didnt feel the need to marry: love is love whether you have a piece of paper on not, but i think its the right call.. Your family are heartless AHs..
Why would the boss in the second story take such hard measures on the girl over someone else making a ruckus at work? It genuinely is not her fault even if they were in a relationship, its not like she made him do that.
It's hard to feel sympathy for poly ppl
I don't really understand the whole concept of open relationships but story 2 is so messed up
You see why polyamory doesn't work? EVER?
That poly story is sickening that guy has no type of backbone
He got to leave Gary but he has no backbone? Stop lying
@ChrissaTodd the fact he's putting up with that is having no backbone it's very simpish
Story 2 - OP's a sucker get rid of Clara, she's just another user, no body seems to make open relationships last in the long run, get into a relationship with someone who puts you first. Open relationships are really just FWB it's not a committed relationship. Stop being a sucker.
Story 2 the OP is a complete loser
OP nooooo dude whilst its nice to have multi options for nookie.
But honestly Clara Wanted cake and eat it too.
Gary wanted a GF but not the whole thing.
THE TWO OF THEM DESERVE each other.
OP 2 should find a nice couple to thruple with or be realidthes gonna get pied by Clara for any other guy again and again.
Stop calling suicide self-harm 🙄
There are words and phrases that if you say on YT, you get demonetized. That might be it.
@@LoganJackson yes, but self-harm is commonly used to describe harm towards oneself; not killing oneself
@@ephemeral2552 Yes it is, but did you not pay attention to what @LoganJackson said?
The people of story 2 are just plain sick.
Story 2 what a cuc****
Story 2. Girlfriend brought this on herself. She was trying to have her cake and eat it too. She was using Op for her lifestyle. She should have been honest with Gary as well. Telling him she loved him was a mistake. Gary doesn't want to share. This mess is a trainwreck. These idiots deserve each other.
I wouldn't say that. Gary was a piece of shit, no doubt, but she dropped him like a bomb when she saw what he did to his face.
Not gonna lie I feel bad for the father in the third story, he basically lost everything and everyone
He didn't lose, he abandoned. Then got karma
The consequences of his actions.

Story #1
I wish OP and his fiancée happiness together, away from his ghoulish blood relatives. They valued money more than his life.
Story #2
OP is too good for Clara. She doesn’t deserve a partner like him.
Story #3
If I was OP, I would have disowned the father over this and legally changed my surname to the late mother’s maiden name. “From this day, we are no longer family. I won’t have anything to do with you or go to your funeral when you die. I hope your wh@re is worth losing your child over.” I would have told the mistress that every day she stays with my father disproves all claim of remorse, because it’s her trying to have her cake and eat it too.
If OP reconciles with his father then it’ll be a betrayal of his mother’s memory.
Story 3: The fact that this man and his mistress showed up at the funeral is insane.
