Sofia, 35, shared her story after the sudden death of her husband, Alex, five months ago. \u201cI was broken when this happened, and I\u2019m still mourning my loss,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n
Alex, who was 45, had two sons from his previous marriage to his ex-wife, Natalie. Sofia explained that the boys \u201ctreated their dad like an ATM,\u201d but she didn\u2019t interfere with Alex\u2019s parenting. After his death, Natalie and the sons took many of his belongings and sent Sofia the funeral bill, which she paid. Sofia had spent her own money renovating the house she shared with Alex, only for Natalie to tell her she had to \u201ctake my things and leave\u201d because they planned to sell the home. When Sofia asked for a refund for the renovations, they all refused.<\/p>\n
Sofia moved out, buying an apartment with her savings. However, Natalie and the sons discovered they couldn\u2019t sell the house because Alex had put Sofia\u2019s name on it. They arranged a meeting and asked her to split the sale with them, but Sofia refused. \u201cI didn\u2019t hesitate and confidently said no, just like they did when I asked for a refund.\u201d<\/p>\n
Now owning the house, Sofia feels torn. While she stood firm with Alex\u2019s sons, she admits, \u201cSomething in my heart makes me feel unhappy about my decision,\u201d and she\u2019s left with doubts about what she did. \u201cWhat should I do?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
