Today, within one day of meeting me, my stepmom decided to break up with my dad. Her reason being, "I love you, but I just can’t put up with the kid." I’m 'the kid'. I’m 28 years-old. FML

Today, I was daydreaming in bed when my phone rang from across the room. I scrambled out of my covers, tripped over a pair of boots I had by the bed, and slipped on some jeans laying on the floor. Luckily, I answered my phone in time, but only to have my mom tell me to clean my room before she got home. FML

Today, I was told I've secured the job I applied for at my local hospital. Being just 19, this is a great opportunity, and I told my parents. They angrily asked if I'd applied just to get access to drugs, then demanded to know how I'd managed to pass the drug test. Thanks for the confidence. FML

Stepmom implies they’re already married. She’s willing to divorce your dad because of you, a 28 year old who must live a ways away if this is the first time you’re meeting? She’s making excuses.

Be glad she didn't give your dad the ultimatum, "Either the kid goes or I do!" You coulda been orphaned.

What happened at this first meeting? Are you still living at home or super close where she feels like you’d be an interference? She’s still a bitch for handling it the way she did. Even if she was just looking for an excuse. That’s not fair to place on the kid though, no matter the age. A grown child is even worse.

I lived at home until I was 25. My parents allowed me to stay rent free so long as I was in school. As soon as I got my degree I moved out. OP could be in a similar arrangement.
