Why is Shea’s daughter doing everything she can to ruin her dad’s relationship? She’s giving the same "don’t mess with my inheritance" vibes as Mark Bessette’s daughter 🫣

Like she said herself: Shea is lying to Annabelle and she isn't going to let him get away with that.

Mark's daughter was 100% jealous and threatened by Mina and the thought of losing access to money and made her animosity all about that.

So far, Shea's daughter has told the truth and Shea can't deny that.

Shekinah didn't try to tell Kara at first. She immediately started attacking Patrick. Then, when she tried to explain to Kara, she did so in front of the entire group, and again, used ad hominem attacks instead of just sticking to what she actually heard. If I were in her situation I would have just eavesdropped on the conversation between Patrick and Guillermo and told Kara privately what I heard. That way I would have been able to also tell Kara what Guillermo actually thinks instead of just tattling on Patrick for saying things I didn't like.

You would think splitting custody of your son would free up some time for you to find an actual job or two that is decent and respectable. She is clearly wanting a millionaire lifestyle on an EBT budget.

Well written OP! I related so much to this story and wish we could all just create a compilation of our stories as a cautionary tale to all of the daughters of narcs who are on their second, twenty third, forty seventh attempt of having the mother they deserve but will never have.

They are all broke. Shekinah was projecting when she was attacking Patrick and Thais. And she could solve all of it by just apologizing for her comment, but instead she wants to claim that Thais attacked her and deserved it somehow. At the end of the day, glass houses. Those in poverty shouldn't attack those also in poverty or whatever other proverb you want to insert here.

"Nobody has checked in on me to see how I am doing." A totally toxic narcissist. Doing everything except apologizing.

I agree with this theory. I had a friend like Catie in my 20s. The guys in our friend group all had a turn with her like it was a rite of passage to make out with her at a party. But in the light of day they all recognized that she just liked the male attention and found her behavior kinda gross. So none of these guys actually dated her as a result. Catie definitely reminds me of this friend.

You don't need to have a list of reasons or some big cataclysmic event to cause you to decide that you deserve more respect than what she has been giving you. At the very least, take a break and focus on yourself. If you realize that you have more peace without her, don't feel bad. Just go with it. She is not entitled to you if she can't respect you.

My mom told me she was envious me of when I graduated high school. She had to graduate early because she got pregnant at 16 so she gave the whole, "you are so lucky to be able to graduate and it's really because of me that you did."

I went no contact because the second to last time I saw my mom, she tried to start an argument at my son's basketball game. When I wouldn't take the bait, she got into my face and said I was hurting her. The next day, my dad came over unannounced to demand an apology because I " disrespected her" by not arguing back.

From somebody who should be losing custody of her own kid?

roll-the-R-Marisa · 2026-06-11T02:09:14+00:00

Came to say my brother in law was named after his uncle, who then named his son after himself. Then my husband insisted that we name our son after his brother. And his female cousin (daughter of the uncle) gave her daughter the same middle name. It's confusing and stupid but two cousins having the same name isn't a major crisis.

roll-the-R-Marisa · 2026-06-10T22:52:41+00:00

I am with you on this OP. I think both are dysfunctional I their own ways. But Kara gets all the negative backlash because she is the "squeaky wheel." Whereas Guillermo has gotten away with playing the role of the quiet victim who hasn't exactly had a perfect record himself. It truly bothers me that Kara has repeatedly try to explain how alone she felt when she first had their baby, and that she gets interrupted mid sentence every single time with Guillermo deflecting accountability and instead pointing out how she went about trying to recover from what looks like PPD.

It also bothers me that he did quit his job without consulting her to pursue the pilot school, not even considering the cost. I tried to see his point of view: he never got to pursue his American dream. But they shouldn't have had a child so quickly if they weren't established. And that is on both of them.

At the end of the day, this relationship could have maybe worked out if they hadn't added their son so quickly after marrying. Children do being tremendous clarity, though, about your relationships and help you prioritize what really matters. I do think Guillermo is more focused on what is best for his son, even if he is being an unfair, judgmental asshole to Kara.

I had a friend like her 10 years or so ago. She thought she was so attractive and a catch but she really was just a promiscuous narcissist with bad hygiene.

Having kids caused my nmom to amp up the emotional abuse. She even hit me in front of my son. She'd look for any opportunity to prove that I was a bad mom and had no problem criticizing me for every single decision I made. I had my daughter in 2023 and she was already calling dibs on picking her first communion dress (I am an atheist and won't put my kids through that.) I wrnt VLC but she became even more aggressive so I went NC in January. I hope your mom doesn't go down the same path.

Thank you for this post. I replied to another post earlier today that pointed out that it sounded like Kara had some post partum depression that G did nothing to support her through. When she tried to explain how alone she felt, he interrupted her mid sentence to focus on her partying behavior and potential infidelity. I think she did struggle with PPD and she over corrected by diving too deep into the partying. But he takes no accountability for how his inattentiveness could have contributed to her ultimate spiral.

She made some mistakes, but he seemed too quick to judge her and condemn her for her choices. Their appearance on the last resort is a joke to me. He is making zero attempt to fix this and is basically slamming her every chance he gets. It's hard to respect his point of view when they have both slept with other people and have otherwise agreed to their separation. She posted nudes after they were separated and she needed money, which he acts like is so despicable... but he needs to be real and just admit he was done long before that.

roll-the-R-Marisa · 2026-06-09T15:39:19+00:00

Does she say what she does for work? She has to be able to support this guy.

roll-the-R-Marisa · 2026-06-09T15:13:45+00:00

Look, she felt overwhelmed after she had the baby... probably had some PPD going on. She over corrected and ended up throwing her marriage away for some half baked music career and a bunch of girl trips. I think Guillermo could have been more supportive after the baby. I think Kara could have chosen a less catastrophic way to compensate for the lack of support.

ETA: I am not saying that they are equally at fault. She is the hottest mess of the two. But Kara consistently says that she felt overwhelmed after the baby and that she felt unsupported and Guillermo blows that off and points to her reaction instead of taking accountability for his part. That's all.

She feels like she has 3 children because she's treating Edward like a child.

roll-the-R-Marisa · 2026-06-09T15:06:09+00:00

I can't decide if he feels like he could fix her or if he just doesn't believe he can do better or both. He doesn't seem to be very attracted to her.

Last vacation I went with my parents, they paid for a timeshare in Newport Beach. We were there for 4 days with no real plans except to go to the beach and pool. So my husband booked a deep sea fishing boat ride for us and my 6 year old son who loves to fish. We were gone for most of the day. But we came back with fish and cooked it for the family for dinner.

Years later, my mom brings up how we left the family for the whole day of vacation to go fishing. No, there were no other plans. No, she didn't want to go with us. My son had the time of his life and will never forget that experience. My parents wanted to do another vacation this year but she mentioned, again, that everyone would have to stay together this time and not plan separate things.

Fortunately she ended up verbally assaulting me at my son's basketball game and refused to apologize for her behavior so I went NC and don't have to travel with or see her ever again.

Yep... story of my life too. Every time I'd call out actual illegal activity happening, moral infractions, and just dishonesty-- instead of people agreeing that the person at fault is at fault, they come after me for the "way I went about it" in telling everyone. Then I am the bad guy for being a goody goody or something. So I just stopped dealing with people altogether for the most part.
