Her Mom Married The Father Of Her School Bully, And Their Relationship Never Improved After Becoming Stepsisters, But Her Mom Thinks She’s Just Acting Spiteful
Have you ever had a bully from your past come back into your life unexpectedly?
One teenager was shocked to find out that her mom was dating her school bully’s dad, and things never got better after they became stepsisters.
She’s 17-years-old, was mostly raised by her mom and aunt, and was raised alongside her cousin. They were all extremely close, that is until her mom started dating someone new when she was nine.
Growing up, she and her cousin had the same bully at school, a girl named Hannah. Hannah said terrible things about a bunch of kids at school, including her, but was especially awful towards her cousin.
“Hannah was always in trouble, and a few times my aunt was called into the school to discuss what happened with my cousin,” she said.
“Hannah’s dad was always in the school too, because of her behavior. Hannah wasn’t alone either. She had one friend who was even worse than Hannah, and more was done to her.”
Then, she found out that the new guy her mom had been dating was Hannah’s dad. Before she hardly had time to process this news, they all moved in together, and her mom married Hannah’s dad within a year.
Unfortunately, she quickly learned that Hannah didn’t act differently at home than at school.
“Hannah was still acting that way after they got married,” she explained.

“I ended up not seeing my aunt or cousin much because mom was mad [that] my aunt didn’t include Hannah more, and as a punishment, she denied us the chance to hang out.”
Hannah’s best friend and sidekick moved away four years ago, and she’s been extremely lonely since then. Now, Hannah is finally making an effort to be nice to her. However, she believes Hannah’s efforts have come too late and refuses to try forming a relationship with her.
As things have gotten worse for Hannah, her mom has become more concerned and won’t stop trying to force her to make peace with her and get close to her. No matter how hard her mom tries, she has zero interest in having a relationship with Hannah and will always resent her mom for marrying Hannah’s dad.
During a recent argument, her mom accused her of holding Hannah’s past behavior against her too much and said she should be standing by her “family.”
“I told Mom she never had control over us just because she got married to Hannah’s dad,” she recalled.
“I told her I would never want Hannah in my life, and I will only ever hardly tolerate her presence, and nothing she says can change that. My mom said I was behaving more spitefully than she ever would have expected and that she was ashamed of me for saying all that.”
Should she try harder to make peace with Hannah, or is her mom being unrealistic?
