Our today\u2019s protagonist is a woman, whose marriage had been so happy until her husband\u2019s ex showed up on their horizon. She had some tragic events in her life, so our heroine offered her huge help and support, despite the fact that this woman was her husband\u2019s ex. But soon, the kind-hearted lady regretted her hospitality, because very weird things started happening in her family.\n

\n

Paula and Liam were very happy in\u00a0their marriage.\n\n

Paula, 32, has recently penned a letter to our editorial. The woman shared her very personal story with us, and all she asked about was that we publish it and give our readers an opportunity to help her with their opinions and advice. Paula\u2019s story is quite unique, because she made a decision that not every married woman would easily make, but it led her to a bizarre situation that\u2019s now developing in her family, and she doesn\u2019t know what to do with it.\n

The woman started her letter, saying, “Hi, Bright Side! I\u2019m so desperate about my current family conflict that I can barely make any decisions on my own. I feel like my brain will explode soon, and things are so inappropriate and awkward that I really feel like I\u2019m sleeping and can\u2019t wake from this bad dream.
\nMy husband Liam and I have been married for 4 years now. This is the first marriage for me, but not for Liam. He was previously married to a woman named Anna, and they divorced one year before Liam and I met.”\n

“We\u2019ve been very happy in our relationship and our marriage is nearly ideal. I feel that Liam loves me, and he\u2019s happy with me. I know that he\u2019s not burdened by his past relationship, and I am sure that he\u2019s faithful to me. But there\u2019s a nuance, and recently our family has been suffering from Liam\u2019s past relationship.”\n

\n

Paula made an\u00a0unpopular decision to\u00a0help her husband\u2019s ex\u00a0when she was in\u00a0a\u00a0huge trouble.\n\n

Paula goes on with her story, saying, “Liam\u2019s ex, Anna, has never appeared in our life all these years. Up until recently.
\n7 months ago, Anna called Liam, and she was crying and screaming. She said that her house turned to ashes after a huge house fire and that she had nowhere to live because of that tragedy. Luckily, she wasn\u2019t home when the fire started, but the house was destroyed and Anna was so devastated that I couldn\u2019t help crying myself when I found out about her tragedy.”\n

“What made the situation even worse was the fact that Anna\u2019s house was the only thing that was left after her parents died and this was the place where she was born and raised, so being homeless wasn\u2019t as bad as having nothing left as a memory of childhood for Anna.
\nI felt so sorry for her loss that I made a decision, a huge mistake, which I now regret with all my heart. I told Liam that we must help the poor woman. I insisted that she must live with us until her life goes back to normal again after this horrible accident. I didn\u2019t feel awkward about the fact that Anna was Liam\u2019s ex, all I was thinking about was lending a hand to a woman who had nowhere to go and no one to support her in her toughest time.”\n\n

\n

Anna moved in\u00a0with Paula and Liam and things went smooth from the beginning.\n\n
\n

\n

Paula goes on with her story, saying, “Liam hesitated for a while when I suggested that we must help Anna, but he finally agreed that we should support her. So, Anna moved in with us and there was absolutely nothing in her behavior that would make me think that she was being ungrateful or jealous.
\nOur relationship was quite friendly, and I treated her like I\u2019d treat any other person in such a horrible situation: with maximum loyalty, hospitality and support. She paid me back with a warm and friendly attitude, and her relationship with Liam had been absolutely neutral, as if they had never been married before.”\n

“I was totally relaxed about everything, but one thing about Anna\u2019s behavior was becoming quite frustrating for me. I noticed that she was very comfortable living in our house and even after a few months passed, she seemed not very much concerned about looking for a place to live. By that time, she already had enough money for renting an apartment, but she still preferred to live with us.
\nWhen she moved in, we didn\u2019t take any rent from her, and we even paid for her food, hygienic stuff and other things necessary for life and comfort. But this couldn\u2019t last forever, and Anna seemed to have been ignoring the fact that our hospitality wasn\u2019t boundless.”\n\n

\n

The situation escalated even more and now there\u2019s another huge issue.\n\n
\n
\"\"\n
\n

Paula wrote, “We still didn\u2019t want Anna to feel uncomfortable or deprived, so we didn\u2019t really bring out the topic of her moving out. But then, another weird thing happened. Anna told me that she is 2 months pregnant and when I asked her who\u2019s the father, she told me that this was a secret.
\nThe problem is that Anna didn\u2019t go out with anyone as far as I could remember. She\u2019s been staying home all this time and leading a very ascetic life. I know that it may sound stupid, but I finally started suspending that she and Liam were having an affair and that this baby was his.”\n

“I didn\u2019t tell Liam about my suspicions, but I told Anna that I want her to do a paternity test once the baby is born so that I could be sure that she and Liam weren\u2019t hiding anything from me. Anna boldly told me that she\u2019ll never do this and said that if I have any doubts about my husband, then I\u2019m a paranoid and need to get some medical help.
\nI\u2019m torn, and I don\u2019t know what to do now. This woman still lives in our house, and next month she\u2019s moving out, finally. I regret my hospitality now, and I really need to know whether I\u2019m right or wrong in my suspicions towards her and my husband. What should I do?”\n

And here’s yet another woman who deeply regretted her hospitality and a very kind heart from the very start. She agreed for her husband’s best friend to move in with them, and what was happening after they started living together was too much even for the bravest person.\n
