Telenovela - The Gold Digger Diaries

PLEASE READ:

Might be a little long, I'm sorry. Please bare with me and forgive my oversharing. I really need someone to see that this is all real bc it absolutely sounds made up 😅

Going on 8 years now, Could use some other people around who can relate. Please enjoy the absolute chaos provided by my dumpster fire of a family 🍿 🍿 🍿

For background: My parents met in AA (🚩🚩🚩) My dad was married with a six year old son. He and his wife took in my mother thinking she was a damsel is distress. Only for my mom to have an affair with my dad in the home they shared with his wife and child.

My dad ended up celebrating his divorce by making it official with his pregnant mistress. His ex wife fled the country with their son. My parents went on to have my older brother but they were only together for 2 years. They split up over DV (ON BOTH SIDES)

Fast forward six years - my parents randomly hooked up once after my grandfather passed away. Hence my creation 🙃 Also fun fact that my mom was 47 when she had me. Actual proof some people are truly never ready to be parents.

My mom went on to become a DV counselor at a women's safe house for several years. She stopped working early on and financially relied on my dad and state supplements. My dad ended up inheriting some money in my teen. My momhad primary custody of me until I went on to spend 12-17 in treatment.
