My Dad Stole My Bride Right On My Wedding Day!

i always told myself i would never get married to me marriage seemed like the worst thing in the world and who could blame me my dad had cheated on my mom constantly and i felt like it was all my fault i once heard him say when i was a kid that he only stayed with my mom because he'd accidentally got her pregnant so basically he resented me and that was what my childhood was like my dad made it torture i decided i never wanted to grow up to be like him and then i would stay single forever but then everything changed the day i met a girl named carrie i'm niko by the way and before i get into the chaos of what happened after i met carrie let me just say that she was the most beautiful smart amazing girl i'd ever met and i was definitely not the only guy who felt that way however never in a million years did i think she would hurt me in a way that was almost even worse than how my dad hurt my mom you see my dad cheated on my mom the whole time when i was growing up they always argued since my mom had suspicions of his cheating but nothing was ever proven then finally my mom caught him with his co-worker so they divorced when i was only nine years old it put a lot of strain on my life because i had to split my time between the two of them and my dad was always out on dates with different women so i pretty much raised myself when i was at his place this really affected my relationship with him and we never got close because he was always too busy as for my mom she took years to get over what my dad had done and so it just made sense to me to not focus on girls instead i spent all my time drawing while all the other guys went out on dates i was making comic books relationships just seemed too messy at one point my friend teased me and asked me if i was gay but i just told them that my dad had ruined my mom's life and i didn't want the same thing to happen to me instead i focused on college and getting my art degree so when i met carrie you can imagine how life-changing it was for me i never expected to meet someone because i wasn't even looking for it but it was love at first sight and i couldn't stop myself little did i know how much that relationship would mess up my entire life though and in more ways than one we met at a comic meet and greet event i work as a comic book artist and when i saw her walking towards my stand at the event i got so nervous i'm a little nerdy so seeing a gorgeous girl walking towards me was crazy but we hit it off immediately turned out she was a big fan of my work and loved that i was slightly nerdy so that first evening i went against my word that i'd never date and asked her out she was so supportive of my comic books and it was so encouraging for me she didn't care that i wasn't super rich or famous she just liked me for who i was so within a month i was in love with her no one had ever supported me like that before my dad had basically been absent my whole life and my mom was still so depressed about stuff with my dad carrie was the first person to push me to really chase this dream after four months i decided to propose to her for the first time i understood why people got into relationships i'd never been so happy if only it could have lasted our wedding day was interesting let's just put it that way of course carrie looks so beautiful in her dress and i must admit i scrubbed up pretty well too but there was one thing i wished i could have changed about that day for some reason my dad was in the worst mood ever since i'd met carrie he'd been acting even colder towards me and i figured he was just jealous because all his relationships had been complete failures honestly of all the days for him to act like this my wedding day it made me so angry my whole life i'd put up with feeling like a burden to him and now on my big day he couldn't even crack a smile i even overheard him saying something about how i didn't deserve a girl like carrie it made me sick that he couldn't just be happy for me i asked gary to try and talk to him and get him to calm down a bit so she did she was so sweet and could comfort anyone and my dad seemed to like her more than he liked me i left it to her and made the rounds to chat with the other guests but then when it came time to sit down for dinner i couldn't find her it was kind of awkward because everyone was waiting and then just when i really started to panic she appeared with my dad they'd obviously been talking for a while but at least my dad looked more relaxed and even smiled at me at one point so i figured she'd done something right at least i could enjoy the night and not worry that my dad would ruin it by saying something stupid so the rest of the wedding night went well and then we went on our honeymoon it was fun but carrie seemed a little off she spent a lot of time on her phone and i hope we'd spend more quality time together i mean it was our honeymoon after all there were a few times where she even pulled away when i tried to kiss her and i started to feel insecure had we moved too fast i was seriously feeling anxious anyway we still had a nice holiday and i tried not to overthink it we got back from our honeymoon and my dad came to visit a few days later this was weird because he never visited me in fact he did his complete best to avoid me but now that i was with carrie maybe he wanted to make up for lost time and make a good impression maybe carrie would help my dad and i finally get close but one day after he'd left i found a bag with some revealing lingerie inside i called him and asked him if he'd forgotten something and then he just laughed and said oh it's for carrie and for you you've got to keep that spark going right son i was shocked what a weird gift to buy your daughter-in-law it made me kind of uncomfortable my dad clearly had no idea that this was inappropriate though it was so embarrassing anyway valentine's day was coming up and i decided to surprise carrie recently she'd been quite distant and i figured i needed to do something super romantic to get her to notice me again i decided to leave work early and surprise her with a rose petal bath i even bought some nice candles and i was thinking i'd cook her a delicious meal too but when i got home my dad's car was in the driveway that's weird i thought i wasn't expecting him and when i went inside i couldn't see him anywhere dad i called but there was no reply i went upstairs and that's when i noticed our bedroom door was closed i opened it and my worst nightmare came true my dad was in bed with my wife and no they weren't just hanging out talking they were full on french kissing i thought i was going to collapse my whole body started shaking and carey suddenly jumped up nico she screamed covering her chest with the sheet what are you doing home so early i couldn't hold back the tears i seriously couldn't believe that carrie would do something like this to me and with my dad to make it worse my dad started laughing i felt like i was going to explode so i went right over to him and punched him in the face and asked him to get out of my house carrie jumped in between us to stop me from hurting him and this just made me even more upset why was she protecting him eventually he had managed to escape and left the house then i asked carrie to pack up all her stuff and get the heck out too i never wanted to see either of them again and i screamed at gary as she left saying i'd be filing for divorce right away honestly i never thought gary would cheat on me it hadn't even crossed my mind i felt so betrayed as she left with her suitcases i felt completely crushed i had no idea where she'd go to live now but it's not hard to guess my life was over my own dad who'd treated me terribly my whole life had now gone and done the worst possible thing stolen my wife for me it took me a while to get to grips with it all even now i'm still disturbed and i think back to our wedding day and i know that's when it all started carrie hadn't just cheered my dad up she'd been seduced by him no wonder they look so weird that evening the way my dad kept smiling it all made sense now it's been a year since the whole thing happened and i haven't spoken to either of them since then and i don't plan to they both betrayed me and they don't deserve a second of my time i did check carrie's social media once and she's still with my dad posts all these photos of them together and calls him hubby even though they aren't married i talked to my uncle about it and he said he saw my dad with another woman at the golf course one day so i guess that's karma gary cheated on me and now she's getting cheated on well that's her problem now i think it's time for me to ignore them and to regain my faith to live a better life god always offers what we deserve
