So my Mom doesn't enjoy my Dad, and expects me not to either?

Your not wrong. Your just being caring for your father. Don't let her make you feel about that.

Your mom is just petty, emotional, and doesn't know how to be cordial (unless he was abusive).
She still has bitterness towards him and hasn't let it go

All you can do is keep yall situations separate as much as you can.

You weren't wrong for thinking of your dad. Not at all.

You were wrong for not thinking about how your mom feels about your dad though. Divorces are nasty and your mom probably still has some bad feelings for dude. If she made the food and feels like he doesn't deserve any of it I feel she's right. She made the food for the people she cares about, not the people she doesn't care about.

Did your pops make her a plate?

My dad ate sausage and eggs because that's what he eats half the time.
I don't think she'd want that...
 
 
I'm in tears omggg 
I don't need this **** tonight

On the real though, **** what she's talking about. She's being narcissistic, and doesn't know how to communicate to your dad that she still has feels but wasn't validated somewhere during their break up. Bet 9/10 your father pulled the plug. She just wants to be heard. Ain't nobody thinking about her boyfriend. Not even her, she didn't say "save some pie" for him, she's just worrying about starving your pops to death. 

You did the right thing.
 
you did the right thing, imo.

think about how sad he must have been all day not being able to spend thanksgiving with his own children.. :frown:
 
Nah, you weren't wrong. Good for you.

Can only imagine what divorcees go through, but I think your moms just doesn't want your bio father in the picture and prefer to look at her boyfriend as your "dad".
 
Was that u that said u had a 90k wedding sophisticated webbie
 
Mom still wants that daddy D and it's frustrating because pops moved on and tagging younger, tighter yambs.

Dudes get older and get better... Women go down hill aesthetically faster than NFL running backs after 30...

She mad your pops is flourishing and can't compete

My sentiments exactly.

If my niece and nephews tried to take some food my family bought and prepared to their mom (my brother's ex-wife), I would slap the plate out of their hands.  If they asked if it was cool then that's different, but to just grab food and take it over?  Not happening.
 
Can you give your moms bf the hands?


But you were in the right divorces make people bitter let your mom know you care about pops just as much as you care about her
 
Scorn woman is scorn.

It's always gonna be like that, unless of course, they're face to face. Surely, she didn't want him to know she's bitter.

Just be indifferent. If she starts talk ****, just don't say anything.
 
I read OP so in gonna drop my insite. I didn't read the other replies yet so idk if you posted any updates


Your mom seems really sour. But don't let that mess up your relationship with ya pops fam. Thank GOD that your old enough to make your own decisions. Because if you were still a child, trust and believe that she would brainwash you into hating your dad. And that just messes up the cycle of manhood. A man needs a good relationship with his pops.

Right now, it sounds like your mom is being more of an ex-wife than a mother. Feel what I'm saying.

You just gotta understand that her and ya pops been through whatever they been through..so she gonna feel how she feel. But she's wrong for throwing that on you. That's ****** up, and her mentality is messed up for that. But don't let that mess with you. Love your mother and love your father. You can live em separately, you don't need to love em together. Just make sure your relationship with your parents stays A1 from Day 1.
 
Perhaps ops mothers unwillingness to offer her ex husband the sweet potato pie is deeper than what it seems.
Sweet potatoes are similar to yams just less starchy and more wet.
In her mind he is probably already getting spp from someone else.
By bringing him a plate he is basically allowing his father back into their lives just a little bit, which is something that she just does not want.
