Welcome to R-slash Best of Redditor updates, where O.P's father is romantically attracted to her.
Our next Reddit post is from R-slash relationships.
My mother died of cancer when I was seven.
At that time, my father was no one.
to be found. He'd left my mother when I was less than one year old. I grew up with my mom and older
brother. When my mom died, my brother became my guardian. He took good care of me and always made me feel
safe and comfortable. He's been mother and father and brother for me at the same time. Two years ago,
my father came back and asked to be part of our lives again. I'm currently 16. He said that he
changed and wants to make things right. He initially used to come around once a week for a few hours,
and it was nice. However, recently, in the past two months, he's acting creepy, which makes me
uncomfortable. He texts me about my looks all the time. Tells me I look like a complete woman now.
It makes me feel weird. Last week, he asked about my sex life, which I am not comfortable
talking to him about. He asked me if I watch adult videos, and if I do, what positions I like.
I mean, this is creepy, right? I don't like it. My brother talked.
to me about intercourse, but it was about safety and consent and things like that. Never these details
that my father asks. I want him to stop these things, and that's all he talks about. Honestly, I want
him to stay away from me. I don't like him. He gives me bad vibes. I know he's my father,
but I don't see him as family. He's just another person to me, a creepy person who makes me
uncomfortable. Should I tell my brother about these things and ask him to keep my father away?
My dad has a good relationship with my brother. They've become close in recent months. Then three days later, O. P. Posted an update. I told my brother everything and showed him all the texts, as almost all of you told me to do so. He was shocked. For a few minutes, I couldn't say what he was thinking, but after that he told me that I should have told him sooner, and that he would make sure our father never bothers us again. For a moment, I thought that he was upset at me, but he was really furious.
at our father. He asked our father to come over, and he told me to remain in my room until he left.
They ended up having a big fight, and they were loud, which I could hear. My father was yelling
that a parent has a right to raise his daughter as he sees fit. But my brother told him that
my dad doesn't even know how to spell the word parent. My dad eventually left. He sent me a text
that, Your brother is way over his head. Don't choose him over your own father.
I replied, with my brother's permission, I'll choose him over a thousand sperm donors like you.
I don't want to see you ever again, and then I blocked his number.
I'm very happy that my brother did this.
I feel much better and safe for now.
He's always made me feel safe.
When he has his own kids, I'm sure he'll be the most amazing father in the world as he's been one for me.
He said that he'll also inform the police and school, and if my father tries anything,
I should tell him immediately to maybe look for some legal way to keep him
away. I just hope that my sperm donor of a father stays away from us forever. Super gross,
disgusting story. As unlucky as O.P. is to have such a terrible father, she's even luckier to have
such an amazing brother. Our next Reddit post is from R slash relationships. I am a writer, a serious writer
who's got her first book published and a few poems that made its way into the local paper. I make a
living out of it. I also have a very secret blog that I used to publish.
fan fiction under a pseudonym. I know that when we mention fan fiction, the first thing that
comes to mind is that I'm an obsessed fan girl who writes countless OCs and all of them are in love
with an alter ego of myself and blah, blah. No, I just really like exploring my favorite characters
and the universe they live in. If I'm reading a book, playing a game, watching a movie, I sometimes
think, what if, and I write it out. It's been my secret for a long while now. Well, it used to be.
My boyfriend found my blog when I forgot to clear out my history on my laptop.
He's been mocking me for it.
I'm not fragile.
I can take mocking every now and then if I know that it's not really malicious.
My boyfriend, on the other hand, keeps laughing and making jokes about me being a Tumblr girl,
about me wanting to be with those characters and so on.
It's to the point that he's read a few and started nitpicking and making fun of some of it.
I talked to him, and he dismissed me.
I finally snapped yesterday when he came over and I was writing, again for the local paper.
He said,
Writing your weird smut fanfiction, fan girl?
He meant it as a joke.
He laughed, but I was already so cranky that I told him to leave.
He looked at me puzzled and said that he was kidding, but I kicked him out.
English is not my native language.
I started learning English when I was nine years old,
because there was no one to read or write fan fictions of a particular fandom that I was into in my native
language. Because of that, I learned English, and it saved my life when I needed a job but was
inexperienced in a lot of things. But man, I could speak and write English fluently, and all of that
is thanks to writing fan fiction. It means a lot to me, and I'm not hurt that most people think
it's silly and make fun of fan fiction writers. I'm hurt because the boy I love is being horrible
about it, and I'm this close to breaking up. I don't deserve to be mocked for something I like,
especially when I don't judge him with the stuff that he likes.
He wants to come over, but he doesn't think he's wrong,
and he doesn't see how his behavior is hurting me.
What do I do?
I learned a long time ago not to be ashamed of doing something that brings me joy,
especially when times are hard enough already.
But it hurts so much that my boyfriend thinks I'm a loser,
and I don't know what to do.
I'm starting to see him differently.
Then, four days later, Opie posted an update.
He and I have teased each other before.
I teased my best friend, and she teases me back.
Stupid trash teasing.
I still have some of my earliest fictions in English, and my grammar was awful,
really awful, with sentences like,
and he tried to think not about her.
She throws that sentence back at me all the time, and it's always in good heart.
It's always in a, oh God, look at the stuff you used to write, and look at you now.
That is not what happened with my significant other and I.
He went out of his way to make me feel uncomfortable and hurt.
That's why I came here for help, because someone I love was being cruel out of nowhere.
And so, for the sake of this update, I need you guys to keep in mind that I'm in no way ashamed
of writing fictions, and that my S.O's behavior was more than strange and cruel. He's never
acted that way before, so I met him the day after so we could talk. He was pissed because I kicked
him out. I was pissed because of his behavior. We went home, and I just straight up asked why
my fics bothered him this much. He kept saying they didn't.
that he was just having fun and all, and I explained to him how he made me feel.
He snorted. I told him that if he wasn't going to take this seriously, then he could leave
again and not come back. After a while and a brief discussion about him being incredulous that I was
so upset over nothing, he finally told me the real reason behind his actions, that he doesn't feel
comfortable with me writing love-making scenes. This came out of nowhere, and even when this
issue was discussed here, I was like, nah, he would never have a problem with it. He even praised
one such scene in my book. Well, I asked him exactly that. Why did you praise that scene in my book?
Why did he encourage me to write more of it? He said that he hadn't stopped to think about the
consequences, that when I wrote it in my book, he didn't know or see how many people enjoyed it.
But when he read the ones in my blog, he could see how many people reblogged it, he could see the
comments, he could see everything, and it bothered him because I was his girlfriend. Okay, I asked him
what he meant by that, and he said that I was putting myself out there by writing this stuff.
I held back the urge to snap and calmly asked him again, what the hell he meant by that?
He said he knew how guys think, and that they were seeing how easy I was, and I'd soon be getting
stalkers because, and I quote,
You like sex like a slut.
Isn't that lovely?
He quickly tried to backtrack to tell me that he didn't mean it like that.
He meant that I write detailed and explicit scenes, and that might give people the wrong idea.
I asked him if I gave him the wrong idea when we have intercourse, and he just shut up.
I think he realized how much of an idiot he was because he started apologizing.
I just ended it.
I ended it and changed my blog's URL.
He's been calling and calling and calling, texting me.
nonstop that he's sorry, but I can't look at him the same way. Even if I ever forgive him,
just no. I like intercourse, so that makes me a slut, but that's not a problem when I'm doing it with him.
I'm just heartbroken over this, because I don't know, this came out of nowhere. Before breaking up,
he said everything would be okay if I just never wrote about intercourse. I mean, really? No, I like it,
I like writing about that. I like writing fix. I like it. It pays my bills. So, screw that.
But in his mind, if I just stopped writing kinky love scenes, then he wouldn't feel insecure and wouldn't lash out like this.
I'm glad it came out, though, this side of him.
Still, it's just so freaking sad.
O.P. Story reminds me, uh, apparently the longest fan fiction of all time.
I had to look it up. It's called, it's a Super Smash Bros fan fiction.
It's called Super Smash Bros. Under Fire, the Great Adventure Saga.
Oh, no, looking it up, it's the second longest.
4 million words. Anyways, the reason why I bring that up is because the reason why that person
started writing a Super Smash Bros fan fiction was to practice his English. Hmm, looks like the longest
fan fiction is 16 million words. It's called The Loud House. And it features a self-insert character
who has a harem of female characters from universes such as Naruto and Jojo's Bazaar Adventure.
Her next Reddit post is from R-slash nanny. I'm a full-time nanny for a stay-at-home mom with
an eight-month-old baby. The baby is honestly perfect, so sweet and happy, and naps great. I've been
with the family for about seven months now. The mom and dad are both amazing employers. They're super
nice to me. The mom gets me Starbucks and Asai bowls, even makes me lunch sometimes. I make
32 bucks an hour with great benefits in a medium cost of living area, so overall, this is a dream
job. Here's my only issue. I'm pretty sure the parents are having passionate hugging sessions
during the dad's lunch break, maybe every day or every other day. They go to their room, and I never
see anything inappropriate, but sometimes I hear what I think might be the bed moving. It's not
loud or anything, just enough to make me realize what's going on. Afterwards, her hair is messy,
clothes changed, that kind of thing. Today, I asked the mom what she was up to when she came out of the
room and she didn't really say much. I kind of jokingly said, oh, were you napping? And she got a little
red and awkward. That pretty much confirmed it for me. I know they're married adults and it's their
house, but it still makes me feel a little uncomfortable since I'm there taking care of their baby.
They're not being disrespectful or obvious, but it just feels weird. Would it be totally out of line
to ask them not to do that while I'm working? Or am I overreacting and should just let it?
it go. They really are such a great family, and I don't want to make things awkward if this is just
me being overly sensitive. What would you do? Uh, I don't know what O.P.'s issue is. They're
quietly screwing in their own house behind closed doors. In the comment, yeah, okay, everyone agrees
in the comments. People are calling out O.P. And O.P. responds, but I'm working. You don't
think it's disrespectful to F word while someone's taking care of your kids under your roof? It's
making me uncomfortable. They both go in the bedroom and come out mess.
see hair and smiley. It makes me feel weird. Then in another reply, it's very awkward. They both
come down smiley and happy and in a good mood. Like guys, I know what you just did. You just
did it. And someone says, then quit. And Opie says, this is a super good paying job. The parents
are beyond nice. This is the only flaw. I still think maybe I should mention it and maybe they'll
stop screwing during my workday. Wow, Opie is kind of a prude here. More comments from
OP. It's weird because like she's giddy after doing it. A mood shifter. Happy. It's odd. Like it puts
even more in my face, oh, I got laid. I think it's weird for adults to be doing it every day or
every other day. There's other ways to support a relationship. For context, OP is 28. Then a few days
later, O.P. posted an update. That Friday morning, I told my employer that I wanted to talk during
the baby's nap, and she said, okay. I brought up how uncomfortable I felt about what I thought was going on,
and I mentioned how I could sometimes hear or notice things that made me think they were doing it while I was there.
I told her it made me uncomfortable, and that's when everything went downhill. She was very direct with me.
She said that my only job was to take care of the baby, not to worry about what she and her
husband were doing. She told me that if I had downtime, I could watch TV or read a book.
I told her it just seemed weird that she would come out with messy hair or different clothes,
and she explains that sometimes they do workout videos in the room, sometimes it's intercourse,
sometimes cuddling, sometimes it's just her napping. She said that whatever happens in her
bedroom is none of my business. After that, things got really quiet. She would,
wasn't mean, but I could tell she was uncomfortable and hurt. Then she told me I could go home for the
day, and I just knew that meant that I was done. Later, she texted saying that they were going to move
in another direction, and that was it. I feel horrible. I know I crossed a boundary, and I regret
bringing it up so much. I miss them terribly. The money was amazing. My boss was so kind,
and their baby was absolutely perfect. I really wish I could fix this and somehow get my job back.
my job back. Then another update. I sent a text message to my boss on Sunday morning and she responded
this morning saying she forgives me and that she hopes I take this as a learning experience,
but they will not hire me back. I miss her so much. She said she talked to her husband about everything
and they decided to give me a month's pay until I find a new job. I honestly didn't expect that. It was
really kind of them even after everything that happened. I missed my unicorn family so much. I was
completely in the wrong, and I take full responsibility for that. I know I hurt people who
trusted me, and that's something I have to live with and learn from. I will... What? I will not be
filing any sexual harassment report. Huh? What sexual harassment? The people who were telling
me to do that were not giving me good advice, and I'll be keeping my distance from them from now on.
I miss my nanny baby so much. I can't believe I won't be going back. It breaks my heart because
they were such a big part of my life. I keep replaying everything in my head and wondering if there's
anything I could say or do to make things right. I know trust, once broken, is hard to fix,
but I wish I could show them how much I've grown and how truly sorry I am. I'm trying to find
a new job now, and honestly, everyone's been so rude. It's been really hard. I can't believe my old
employer still paid me $5,200 after letting me go. That was so generous of them. I really didn't
deserve it after everything that happened. To be honest, maybe part of the problem was that I was
a little jealous of her. She's a stay-at-home mom, beautiful, only 28, rich, has this gorgeous
home, and her and her husband are truly happy. She's such a good mom, and it just felt like she
had this perfect life, her dream life, and I'm the same age, and I think that made me feel
small in ways that I didn't even realize at the time. I hate admitting that, but it's true. Learn from my
mistakes, guys. Don't leave a good family. Let everything go. Don't let jealousy or pride get in the way of
something real. Some things just aren't worth losing the people who truly care about you. Appreciate what you have
before it's gone. O.P., I would like to feel sympathy for you, but I'm having difficulty getting past
just how stupid you are. You got upset over the most normal, inoffensive thing possible, and then every
single person on the internet was like,
girl, don't do it. And then you did it and got
fired. 32 bucks
an hour. Also, OP says
full-time nanny, which might mean
that she lives there as well. It's not exactly
clear. But if she lives there, that also means
she doesn't have to pay rent or
utilities. So it's 100%
pure profit, zero expenses.
That's like a dream job
for a lot of people. And she threw it away because
the parents were secretly
screwing. Girl, how do
you think they made the baby in the first
place. That was our slash best of
