A sixty-five-year-old man wrote a letter, and his account was so emotional that we could almost feel him shedding tears. The man talked about how he raised and loved his stepdaughter as if she were his own.

The woman is now getting married, and like her father, her stepfather anticipated proposing to her on her wedding day. However, things took an unhealthy turn overnight, and now the man is seeking guidance on how to proceed in his extremely complex life circumstances.

The man did a lot for his stepdaughter, raising her as if she were his own.

Adam, a 65-year-old man, wrote a letter to us and was unable to control his feelings as he told us his traumatic tale. “My stepdaughter Lisa is getting married to the love of her life in just 1 month,” he wrote as he began his letter. For the past six months, the majority of her and my wife’s time has been devoted to the planning of her wedding.

Adam continues, “I raised Lisa, I loved her with all my heart,” to reveal more details of the tale. When she was a baby, I can still remember waking up in the middle of the night to hear her cry. I would constantly cradle her in my arms and console her. Now that Lisa is an adult, she is a bright, self-reliant young lady. She earned an honors degree from the university. Even though the university was state-owned, I paid for her to attend—the total cost came to about $40,000.
She lived with us both during her time in college and after she graduated, and I supported her in all of her activities. She was looking for a respectable place to start her career, so she didn’t have a job for a while. Eventually, she started to feel uneasy about living with us. Thus, I purchased both an apartment and a car for her.

Though he has always been extremely careless, Lisa’s biological father did receive positive attitude from her.

Adam continues his story by stating, “Lisa would occasionally run into her biological father, who was a deadbeat.” Lisa would swoon over him every time he appeared. This man has always been treated with love and respect, even though he hasn’t paid child support or given her a single cent toward her education. Lisa loves him so much and longs for him to be in her life. He reciprocates by continuously shattering her heart, and he never fulfills a promise he has given her.

Adam disclosed that when Lisa started getting ready for her big day, things got really unhealthy. The man wrote, “The wedding venue can accommodate up to 300 guests.” I sent a list of fifteen people I wanted to invite to Lisa and her soon-to-be husband. It should be noted that all expenses are covered by me.

They assured me it wouldn’t be an issue and said they would handle it. I informed these folks right away that they would be receiving an invitation and to mark the date. I asked one of my friends on this list who I met at the golf a few days later if he was attending. When he told me he wasn’t invited, I was shocked. He informed me that he had received an announcement rather than an invitation.

“My friend showed it to me, and it was just an announcement; my name was nowhere on it,” Adam continued, providing more information. It was not mine; it bore the names of Lisa’s father and my spouse.

Adam continued to be mistreated and was unable to control his real feelings.

Adam continues his convoluted tale by stating, “I had a pretty big argument with my wife after I revealed that my friend wasn’t invited.” Additionally, I learned that since there were only 300 seats available, none of the 15 people on my list “made the cut” for the final guest list.

I was furious and disappointed, but there was nothing I could do because the people who mattered most to me had already been hurt. “I might be able to get a couple of people in as an exception,” my wife said. However, that was the biggest insult to my face. I was therefore really boiling.

Adam claimed that after learning one more detail about his stepdaughter’s wedding, everything became even worse. “We had a family dinner with our future in-law’s family and ourselves recently, and there was a surprise guest,” the man wrote. This was Lisa’s paternal grandfather. My stepdaughter boldly declared during this dinner that her “real father” would marry her on her wedding day. A chorus of “Oh how lovely” and “How wonderful” greeted this news.

When Adam could take it no longer, he spoke up.

“I felt very angry and very disrespected,” Adam disclosed. I was trembling. I wanted to cry at that very moment, so I took a few seconds to gather my composure. I said, “I’d like to say a word,” as I rose from my chair after making sure I could speak normally.

And this is the speech that day, given by a frustrated stepdad. “I said that it has been my huge pleasure to be a part of this family for so many years,” wrote Adam in his writing. I expressed my gratitude to the bride and groom, saying that they had helped me realize a very significant thing. I continued by saying that they had both demonstrated to me that my role in this family is not what I had previously believed it to be.
I’ve been working as an ATM, which is great for getting money all the time, but not much else. And so I came to the conclusion that I would hand over my financial responsibilities as host to my successor, Lisa’s real father, as soon as I was replaced as host, both on the invitations and during the ceremony. I bid the happy couple farewell and departed.

Since then, Adam claimed, he has lived alone. His stepdaughter has made multiple attempts to get in touch with him, but he is unwilling to talk to her because he feels hurt. “I feel betrayed and broken,” he wrote as he concluded his letter. Do you think I’m overreacting? In my position, how would you respond?
