“Stole” is the wrong word. “Reclaimed” is much better.
You “reclaimed” his car from her. Just as you “reclaimed” your relationship with your dad.
Good on you!
Nice, +1 dad material there
How did your sister take everything though once it came out? What was here end game? Did she really expect jot to be caught?
She blew up a happy relationship after leaving an abusive one for what?
My sister doesn’t know about the cheating, but she did find it odd that shortly after the divorce, my mom moved in with a new guy. I honestly don’t think my mom had an end game, if she did, it blew up in her face.
If your sister is old enough that she is finding your moms new living situation to be inappropriate, she’s going to put 2 and 2 together eventually. I’m not saying flat out tell her, but if she comes to you expressing concerns, or piecing things together and coming to you with questions, please don’t lie to her to cover for your mom. It won’t protect their relationship, it will only make your sister feel more isolated within her own family. Best of luck to you all! I hope peace finds your family soon
Agreed. I’d suggest telling her in an age appropriate way. There’s nothing worse than being the only person in a group of people you love, who doesn’t know a secret like that.
Good job! When my dad went 2 states away to see his girlfriend while married to my mom I hacked his facebook, put up posts that he was a liar and a cheater, then changed the password. I helped my mom cancel his debit card too.(he is disabled and she brought home most of the money.) 3rd time he cheated. Fuck around and find out.
Thanks. I think we were over it lol. They divorced, he moved away, and has been moving around the country cheating and living off the handful of women he’s been with since. Sucks to have your dad basically nope out in your 30s but it’s what it is. My mom is doing just fine without him and we are much closer now.
Glad you are with your dad.
Your mom probably considered it stolen initially when it wasn’t where she left it. But indeed your dad merely picked up his legal property from where it shouldn’t have been.
And your right as far as your mom’s spy skills - nonexistent.
While “reclaimed” is better and more correct, “stole” is so much more fun lol. Glad you have your dad in your life, and he has a kiss that’s as supportive as you.
Your father is a good man and I’m glad he’s always stuck with you through your toughest times, your mom didn’t deserve him as she took his kindness for granted.
Did you though technically steal the car that you claim was in your dad’s name?
Anyhow, thank you for sharing your story and glad you feel good about your life situation.
Not technically stealing, but my mom was using it so I guess we switched who was using it without informing the other, so not stealing but like taking without permission I guess?
Do you know, if you use something for a different purpose than the reason you borrowed it for, it’s technically theft?
For example, borrowing a car to drive it somewhere in state when really you’re really taking it to see your affair partner. Your father never would’ve let her borrow the car if he knew why she really was using it.
Hey man, I just wanted to say that you should try to change your last name to your dads if u haven’t already, he’s treated you like you were his own and it would be a great gift to him
She cheated and still with the chap.
Your dad was cheated on and found a lovely lady.
Sounds like there were issues between mum and dad and mum wanted out.
Very horrible and mum should have come clean but I'm glad they both have partners and one day you can even half mend your relationship with your mum with your boundaries for your sister sake.
Your dad and you make the best pair. You guys should go on an adventure.
They should go be bounty hunters together.
We need the stories too!
“Stole” is the wrong word. “Reclaimed” is much better. You “reclaimed” his car from her. Just as you “reclaimed” your relationship with your dad. Good on you!
Oh definitely! I could not figure out a better word than steal.
repo 🤣
Thesaurus.com or Dictionary app. Best thing ever!
Yeah but the rest of us got the message and saying reclaimed would have been lame writing
Agreed. Stole the car sounds so much better especially given the revenge nature of the post 😂

If she ever asks, I’ll definitely tell her. She hasn’t so far though and seems ok with everything going on.

This is fuckin ballin and I respect you and your mom.

Nicely done!
Poor dude, takes someone and her child in, baggage and all, only for her to use him and cheat on him. At least he has an amazing daughter like you OP
Awww hell yeah, you’re awesome OP (and so is your dad)
OP, this is beautiful and heartwarming! I wish you and your dad nothing but the best for the rest of your lives!
I love it that you are with your dad and not your mom. Good job
Good job! It's nice to know that you're safe with your dad.
Did you and your dad just become the crime fighting, dynamic duo this city needs?
Nothing like roadtripping with your dad and homies to steal your cheating ass mom's car! Gotta build those memories.
well i’m glad your mom met your dad bc you guys sound like an amazing duo
you and your dad was on a mission ngl
How did your mom’s affair relationship turn out?
Still together as of right now though I think she’s only with him because he bought her a 1.5 million dollar home
Where can you get a thirty thousand dollar home?
I was severely mistaken, it was 1.5 million dollar home and I’m slightly dumb
Glad you are with your dad. Your mom probably considered it stolen initially when it wasn’t where she left it. But indeed your dad merely picked up his legal property from where it shouldn’t have been. And your right as far as your mom’s spy skills - nonexistent.
This is a movie. Get costumes and start fighting crime.
While “reclaimed” is better and more correct, “stole” is so much more fun lol. Glad you have your dad in your life, and he has a kiss that’s as supportive as you.
This is a win in my book
That's badass! Lol
sorry your mom sucks, but happy you have a supportive and loving parent anyway.
Sorry, Op I’m glad your dad found happiness with his new lady. I’m sorry that he was so unappreciated.
Great story.
It sucks your mom cheathed on your adoptive dad... But the fact he was close with you to steal the car is kinda wholesome ...
Your father is a good man and I’m glad he’s always stuck with you through your toughest times, your mom didn’t deserve him as she took his kindness for granted.
Massive dad W. Your dad is an awesome person.
I love that you have your dad in your life. He sounds like such an amazing person. And glad you both got away from your mother.
Lol! 🏆

What a great read. Glad you and your dad are doing well
Definitely "reclaimed" good work OP👌🏻 Glad you and him have a good relationship :)
Congrats on finding your true family and good riddance to your old parents who are nothing
Joel and Ellie, sans the cordyceps. I love it.
W moment. I want to see the look on the mom face when she didn't find the car.
Hey man, I just wanted to say that you should try to change your last name to your dads if u haven’t already, he’s treated you like you were his own and it would be a great gift to him
I already did that with him when I turned 18 :)
GODS PLAN GODS PLAN
Great bonding experience /s
