My adoptive mother died shortly after I turned 18 from alcoholic liver failure. Prior to that she was a violent borderline psychotic alcoholic that chose her boyfriends well being over mine. I was eventually kicked out on Christmas Eve around 16 years old because she made the decision to drink herself to death and I got in the way. Out of all of her odd behavior the one that stuck out to me was that ever since I turned 12 years of age, she assumed that I was trying to seduce her boyfriends. Or that they wanted me in some way (why would you allow a man like that in the house?). I remember our biggest fight being that her boyfriend took me to ulta to get foundation, and she thought we did it in the car. Nothing had happened between me and the men she brought home (thank GOD). But I always wondered.
Shortly after she died my birth mother came seemingly out of no where and contacted me through my email. I’m not sure how she got my email but I was so depressed and lost and genuinely needing a mother that I responded. I had lived in another state for most of my life and after a few years of correspondence she convinced me to move in with her across the east coast so I could have the family support I desperately needed. I was poor with no familial support to speak of with a disability so I thought why not. I moved in, the house was notably filthy. As if they weren’t expecting me. They had four dogs that would not be allowed outside and everything was covered in a thick layer of grime. I very quickly got a job and moved out as soon as possible. Eventually she left her husband and the entire family blamed it on me because she sent me to the store to get her weed (legally), and by me doing that it caused her to go manic and leave her admittedly strange husband.
After this happened it came out that they had been divorced for years already and just lived with each other. shortly after this happened she told me the true reason she brought me up here. She wanted me to court/marry her ex husbands nearly 40 yearold married son, so that when she left her husband I could give her some of the money that her husband had hid in her sons house as alimony. Or if her husband died I would have access to his funds and give it to her. I blocked my entire family and now I’m broke and states away from my friends and support system. I’m am so heartbroken and feel so stupid to believe her. I honestly thought she wanted to me a mother and in my life and genuinely help me. I’m just lost in my life right now.
TLDR: Birth mother wanted to use me for insurance fraud?
