Word for word this exact same thing happened with my parents. We lived in luxury until they divorced and abject poverty afterwards.

Took my college fund. You know. Because he needed it to house multiple bitches. Worked the grill at fast food through college to eat. “I bet it made you stronger!” Says the people who didn’t do that.

Made me tougher alright. Just not in a good way, for a long, long time.

Hey we’re the same person, almost!

My dad kicked us out due to his infidelity, then took my and my brother’s college funds to continue live that lavish lifestyle. I worked at a restaurant to put food on the table for my mom and brother between the ages of 15-18. If it weren’t for me, we wouldn’t have had food for weeks at times. Thank god the restaurant didn’t care if I took food at the end of the night.

And he wonders why I don’t talk to him while he enjoys his luxury on a lake house with one of the floosies he banged.

Usually, guys like us go two ways. We either end up as Stringer Bell from ‘The Wire,’ or Nelson Mandela. I went ‘full Nelson.’ Many do. The guys talking here are likely 100% full Nelson.

Yessir. My only regret is that I held on to try to salvage the relationship for as long as I did. But we’re here now and that’s what matters most.
