    This is what happens when you want to be "nice".

    Your moms just walked all over and played you like a fiddle.

    You wanna be nice and ? , but watch. I bet she pulls this same thing again.

    Or has she done this before already?

    Either way, you're enabling her behavior.

    Did you try to incorporate her into the planning portion and she blew you off?

    She didn't want anything to do with the planning!

    reference post above yours

    So you did try to incorporate her into the planning and she blew you off, right?

    If so then I do see where you're coming from but I the timing of "revealing" could have been a little better.

    Understood.

    My brother called me and was like "Yeah Mom told me you were planning something for Dads birthday!"

    I'm like wtf!

    My Mom is extra sensitive and is emotionally unstable. So saying something to her would have made the situation worse.

    I laughed at every strike after the third one. Not the incidents themselves, but the fact that you went past three strikes in your original post. This alone tells me that you were ? about the whole situation lol.

    At the end of the day does it really matter who is responsible or got the credit?? You know the truth, and what matters is that you gave him something he never had

    Ehhh you shoulda pulled your mom to the side instead of your dad. Just cause she is emotionally unstable doesn't mean that she should get away with this. But you coulda waited to tell your pops at least.

    If u smell something bad. It's because you're an ? .

    Your pops was happy. That's what should matter. You wanted to make sure you credit for the party. That's selfish.

    I understand why you wanted to tell him ......but you should have waited

    If he ended up being disappointed at the end of his bday party ....you did ruin it.

    even though your mom is foul for what she did

    You should've just let it go. No point in ruining a great moment so you can get credit and feel vindicated. Pops was happy now you throwing salt in the game to make your moms look bad.

    This thread is like those scenarios when your girl is telling you her problems, you give her advice but she just wants to hear herself talk.
