When you’re feeling down, the first ones you expect to help and support you are your family.
However, for this woman who was in a car accident, her mom and sister gossiped about her instead of checking up on her.
She was so upset that she decided not to share a lot of updates on her life, like buying a new car.
Read the full story for the full details.
Three years ago, I bought my first car with my own money saved.
I loved and cherished this car.
But, one day, while I was taking my mom home from work, I got in a car crash.
A car was speeding, and crashed into my driver side door.
She asked her sister if she could pick them up, but she refused.
It was so bad, the car was totaled.
My mom and I went to the hospital. But we were both fine.
While in the hospital, I called my sister to pick us up and she NEVER came.
She said that she didn’t want to lose her parking spot, so my mom and I rode an Uber back to our home.
This woman noticed that they were gossiping about her in the family.
Instead of calling me the next few days to check in and help me get a new car, both my mom and sister called all my family.
They let them know I totaled my car!
I was so upset they were gossiping about me.
So, anytime they brought up my car, I told them I don’t want to talk about it.
Her sister even insulted her and said it was karma.
My whole family told me I bought my car too soon, and were worried any time I drove.
What really upset me was that they never encouraged me and helped me with anything concerning the car.
My sister even mentioned that it was karma.
I’m like.”What karma?!”
I’m a good person and even helped her many times.
So, she decided to stop updating them about her life.
After this situation, I stopped trusting my family with certain matters.
And stopped sharing aspects of my life.
I don’t know, but the whole situation was weird.
And when I needed them the most, I felt like they were not there.
She bought a new car and didn’t bother to tell them.
Fast forward, I bought my second car and never told them.
I currently live in another state, so there is no way for them to know.
I’ve had this car for almost two years, and never said anything to them.
Well, I told a family member I had a car, and told them not to say anything.
But of course, they told my mom and sister.
When they found out, they thought she was lying to them.
I feel like this is such a stupid situation.
But my mother and sister feel like it’s weird that I never said anything, especially because I talk to them frequently.
So they feel like I’m untrustworthy for “lying” about it for years.
I technically didn’t lie. I just never said I was driving and left them to assume I didn’t have a car.
Now, they are both upset with her and say she’s untrustworthy.
They are both very upset and feel like it was strange of me to do.
To me, I don’t get why it matters?
Me having a car has no impact on their lives.
It’s my car, not theirs, so it shouldn’t concern them.
This is a very dumb thing to be upset about, to be honest.
