A woman ruined her stepmother’s 50th birthday party by sabotaging the cake as revenge for lifelong mistreatment.
She Intentionally Ruined Her Milestone Birthday
As a child, growing up with a nasty stepmother was not easy.
She was mean, vindictive, and had an inferiority complex that she used to attack anyone who was doing well, especially those doing better than her.
Her father was mostly absent during that time, and her mother was in and out of inpatient facilities until she passed away.
The cruel stepmother was the only available carer and guardian for her.
She Wanted to Better Her Life
Despite the challenges, the woman had aspirations to go to school and be a psychologist.
She liked the structure the school offered and wanted to continue with it after graduation.
As soon as she was handed her diploma, the stepmother handed her a notice to vacate the property.
She Was Evicted and Homeless
Less than a month later, she was homeless and supposed to start college a few months later.
Her father tried to intervene and prevent the eviction, since it was his home.
But, the stepmother was the main occupant in the house, and a local cop informed them that she could, in fact, remove her from the home and press trespassing charges if she ever came back.
To this day, the woman thinks he was likely full of nonsense, but didn’t want to deal with it.
So at the age of 18, she was homeless and uncertain of her future.
Home With Her Best Friend
She found a place with a man who became her best friend, and they tried to attend school.
However, between working full time to scrape by and the mental health issues that arose in the aftermath, she couldn’t continue and dropped out.
Her father was unable to offer much support, and most of their family never cared enough to intervene, since the stepmother convinced most of them she had chosen to go North Carolina with her.
Snide Comments About Her Dying Mom
The stepmother would call and gloat about how hard the real world is, make snide comments about her dying mother, and in the same breath offer sympathy and support if she came back home.
At dinners, the stepmother would tell everyone that the woman was the first psychologist she’d ever seen working at McDonald’s.
If she defended herself, she would be chastised for not taking a joke. It was humiliating, and after a few years, the woman realized they could block her, and she couldn’t do anything about it.
Her Life Turned Around
Thankfully, her life turned around, and she worked as a pastry chef in a bakery she adores.
She would love to buy it someday if the owner would let her when he retires. It’s not a life she ever imagined for herself, but it’s a good one that she’d share with their fiancé, and she wouldn’t trade it for anything.
In the past two years, the woman resumed contact with her dad and stepmother. Despite the stepmother’s unpleasant behavior, she had managed to establish boundaries and defend herself.
The Green-Eyed Monster
At family gatherings, the woman would showcase her talent for making custom cakes. The stepmother disliked the woman’s job and was envious of her happiness and engagement.
Despite the stepmother’s constant criticism, the woman continued to bake for family events.
During the father’s birthday party, the woman baked a beautiful cake and provided pastries and cookies for guests.
The stepmother only had negative things to say about the cake. This was the last straw for the woman, who felt insulted and unappreciated.
Accused Her of Ruining Her Party
When the stepmother asked the woman to bake her a cake for her fiftieth birthday, she agreed, but deliberately used low-quality ingredients and did not decorate the cake.
The stepmother was furious and accused her of ruining her party.
The woman explained that since she had previously insulted her baking skills and low-effort cakes, she assumed the stepmother would prefer such a cake.
The father did not take sides, but suggested the woman take a break from the stepmother. She was happy to oblige and hoped the stepmother’s family would suffer from the dry cake.
Revenge Is Best Served…
Piddy3825 commented, “Petty revenge – best served as a tasteless boxed sheet cake made with cheap imitation frosting from a can!”
Another hilariously added, “What did she expect? She still got better than she deserved. Should have made her one of those disgusting litter box cakes, since she’s such a huge piece of poop.”
What do you think? Was this a perfect dose of revenge? Have you ever gotten revenge on a monstrous family member?
