We lost our home back in ’05 or ’07—I was 10 or 11 years old at the time—and he told me back then that he was laid off. I only found out the truth recently. I’m 28 now, and I’ve lost almost all respect for him after learning this. © MrTumorI / Reddit
Story 5:
My maternal grandmother was married to a widower who had four children from his previous marriage. She made him give up his kids before she married him. I guess she didn’t want to take care of his children.
She became pregnant with my mother, and when my mother was about five years old, her parents (my grandparents) got divorced. He just couldn’t live with my cold-hearted grandmother any longer. My mother didn’t tell me that—I found out by coincidence that I had four uncles.

Story 7:
My brother had an affair with one of my friend’s mums. She used to give him a lift to work when he was 18 years old. This went on for over six months. She ended up getting obsessed with him, and he blocked her on all social media and his phone, basically burying his head in the sand. Her husband is a huge, intimidating guy, and her son is a lifelong friend of mine.
None of them know. My brother only told me because she, seemingly, didn’t tell anyone. It’s pretty weird carrying such a heavy secret. © kicksjoysharkness / Reddit
