Unfiltered Story #296061
My mother and grandma visit me a few hours from their homes to deliver some stuff before mother moves to an apartment after a divorce . I let it slip that my housemate/sibling by choice is poly. My GRANDMA of all people shut my mother down when she started moaning about it. We are limiting people allowed inside our apartment because of high risk. Mother was complaining.
I said “We weren’t even letting housemate’s other partner in.”
The person who drove her husband to leave her after almost 30 years with her gambling, verbal abuse, (and other things tbh) sure lost it about someone else having 2 successful relationships at once.
Grandma, who still struggles with they/them pronouns and nonbinary (housemate is also nonbinary which mother accepts no problem) “Shut up, Its not for me but they are consenting adults.”
mother: ” When you love someone you don’t bring a third person in”
Grandma: “Maybe there is no love and it’s just sex”.
That is not true but was hilarious hearing GRANDMA say it with such fervor.
