I finally got a place of my own but with living paycheck to paycheck I couldn’t afford many of the basics for myself such as pots/pans, toaster, microwave, mattress, etc so my step father generously decided to help me out. Most of the items were bought from Walmart or Amazon but it still added up to a few hundreds of dollars in items. A few days ago my mother found out he cheated on her and she started the process to separate from him. Out of spite he reported me to the police and said I had stolen all the items he gave me from his house. He had all the receipts and proof of purchases so when they came knocking I had no choice but to give everything back as many items were still in boxes. He said he wouldn’t press charges as long as he got everything back which he did but it was just such an evil move. Now I’m here in this apartment without a lot of basic items. I know individually a pot or a pan isn’t that expensive but everything needed to start your life on your own really adds up and now with barely any extra money after paying rent/utilities/food/etc I’ll take me forever to even just get a basic mattress.
