A 21-year-old woman has sparked after she claimed her teenage best friend is ‘sleeping with my parents’ who are both in their 50s.
The woman, posting anonymously on Reddit’s Relationship Advice thread, described the ‘super messed up situation’ while asking fellow users for advice on how to navigate it while still living at home with ‘her and my parents…acting all gross and lovey-dovey’.
The Reddit user used the pseudonym ‘Jackie’ to refer to her friend, who she met online ‘a few years back during the first set of [Covid] lockdowns’.
At the time, she was 18 and Jackie was 16.
She continued: ‘Jackie had this thing she’d like to do, where she’d make jokes about finding my parents hot.
‘She’d mention that my dad was hot, or that she was having sex with my mom, whatever.
‘I’d counter back and, and we’d have a good laugh, all in good fun.’
The woman then explained how her 52-year-old father and 50-year-old mother recently ‘sat me and my two younger sisters down and told us they would be opening their marriage’ and wanted the girls to ‘meet their new partner’ because they felt a ‘strong connection’ with them.

An excerpt from the anonymous user’s Reddit post
‘Well, surprise, surprise,’ she wrote. ‘Their new partner comes over for a visit and it’s Jackie.’
Over the course of a heated exchange, the woman learned her parents had met Jackie on ‘website where couples can look for thirds’ and had no idea she was the same person their daughter was friends with.
‘For context, since we met online and the times we’ve met up in person have been either at her house or college, at my college, or a third location for both of us, my parents have never actually seen Jackie in person,’ she explained.
Jackie, however, knew exactly what her parents looked like – considering all the times she had expressed her attraction for them.

When the woman confronted Jackie, she ‘explains that she’s always told me she was attracted to my parents, and that she didn’t think I’d see it as a big deal,’ her post read.
Her parents, meanwhile, dismissed her concerns about their ‘alternative lifestyle’ and explained ‘they were all adults…and happy together’.
The woman was also informed that Jackie would be sleeping with her parents in their bedroom, adding: At this point, I was so disgusted and angry I just left the house for the rest of the day.
‘When I came back that night, everyone was in bed and I’m 99 per cent sure I heard them having sex, which made me want to vomit.’

She ended the bizarre post by asking for advice on how to continue living in the same house with her parents ‘who were paying for her colleand Jackie ‘definitely having intercourse at night’.
‘She knowingly started a relationship with my parents, and my parents knowingly started a relationship with someone younger than one of their kids,’ the woman said.
‘I just feel sick and awful, and I have no idea what to do anymore. How do I continue to have a relationship with them while this is happening?’
The woman’s message sparked strong reactions in the comments section, with several people questioning whether her story was true.
Some likened it to ‘rage bait’ while others said it sounded ‘fake as hell’.
The woman later addressed allegations she had made the incident up in one of her replies, writing: ‘I wish it was fake, but unfortunately no.’
She later doubled down against the criticism, saying Reddit users were so ‘irony poisoned they forget genuinely improbable things happen in life’.
Responding to thoe who said she needed to move out at the earliest, she said ‘it’s not really an option for me’.
‘I’m still in college (which my parents pay for) and I work a minimum wage job.’
Still others criticised her ‘nasty’ parents for sleeping with a ‘LITERAL teenager’.
‘That’s perverse (I said what I said),’ one person said, adding they were ‘definitely judging them.’
Another wrote: ‘These parents are gross, and have appropriate boundary issues. Open up your f***ing marriage if you want, but not with your kid’s best friend.
‘F***ing creeps.’
The woman replied saying her parents had reiterated they have a ‘very deep connection’ with Jackie when she told them how uncomfortable the situation was making her.
Several people urged the woman to make alternate living arrangements, such as moving in with her grandparents or relatives who might have a ‘spare room or at least a couch to sleep on’ so she can focus on college.
One Reddit user also advised the woman she needed to ‘completely cut off Jackie’ and distance herself from her parents after graduating.
‘I’m petty and would do the bare minimum when celebrating your graduation because I can guarantee they will have her attend as well,’ they continued.
Multiple people suggested Jackie had ‘targeted’ the woman’s parents so she can get ‘a sugar momma and a daddy out of it’.
‘Your ex friend for sure targeted them,’ one user said. ‘Otherwise what are the odds? These apps have an age limit setting.
‘This is f***ed, since you’re still living there I would cut all contact with your ex friend, don’t even look at her if she talks to you.’
Some advised reporting Jackie’s behaviour to her parents and then ‘cutting this nightmare out of your life’.
The woman later confirmed she had moved in with her grandparents because ‘being in that house was not healthy for me’.
