Yeah, I don't know if she knew or not. I pray to God she had no idea, but I'm also not that naive.

in that because I don't have a great relationship with my dad and my stepdad has been in my life for, you know, 10 plus years. And he's really been an answer to prayer for me in so many ways. So I'm just absolutely gutted and shattered. And I, I don't know, I don't know what a relationship with him would look like moving forward. Um, I don't know if I want that. I don't know. I just,

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

132.904

I feel very heartbroken, very betrayed, very trapped and very, very stuck. So I'd love any advice that you have.

he was picking me up from the airport. I'm originally from California and my flight got in very, very late. It was delayed. And so he picked me up from the airport and I heard a notification go off on his phone. And I asked him, I'm like, who's messaging you at like one in the morning? What's going on? And so he told me he's got friends that he used to work with that are contracting a

over in the Middle East and they sent him motorcycle videos. Okay, no big deal. So we sat down for breakfast, dinner, whatever meal that was at one in the morning. And I took his phone, and his password is my birthday. And so I looked at the message, and it was, in fact, just a motorcycle video. But he had another message that was kind of suspicious, and I asked him about it.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

229.293

And he just had some excuse for, oh, yeah, that's a girl that I knew from high school or whatever. And then I, I don't know why I did this, but I looked at his text messages and one of the first messages that he had was a picture that he had sent himself. And so I opened that and that's where I found the picture.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

248.5

I did have a chance to talk to him about it the next day because right then I was absolutely shocked. I didn't see anything about it. He saw you open the picture? No, he saw me open the messages, but he didn't see me open the text message thread the picture. Okay. I just exit out of everything, put the phone down, flip it back over to him. And we ate breakfast in almost silence.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

284.012

So, um, I tried to not be overly emotional about it. Why? I don't, I don't know. Um,

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

306.331

Yeah, and so I sat down with him, and I said, hey, I found something inappropriate on your phone that's concerning. And he was like, yeah, what did you see? And so I told him, well, I saw the picture that you sent to yourself. And he said, oh, yeah, well... Yeah. Yeah. You know, it was it's an app and I don't know, just playing around. I don't know.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

329.221

And just, you know, kind of wishy washy waffling back and forth of, you know, there's not an excuse for that. And so I asked him, I said, do you see me as a stepdaughter? Because that's not, that's not what a step, like that's not a fatherly, you know, that's not something that a father figure would do. And he said, yeah, I know you're absolutely right.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

351.831

That's not something that a father figure would do. I do see you as a stepdad, but he couldn't look at me. And so I don't believe him. Like this does shatter my image of who he is in my life. But I just told him like, hey, just delete the picture, delete the app. Like I don't, I don't want, I'm not going to make a massive deal about this. I'm not going to tell my mom.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

I found a picture of myself on my stepdad's phone. He had put a picture that I had posted on Facebook through an app that made me look completely naked. I'm just absolutely gutted. Ugh.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

578.458

I'm so conflicted because he... part of me, like I don't want to disqualify all the good that he's done in my life. But also like when I look back at our entire relationship, I was holding back. Like I think I knew something was off for a while. I didn't want to hug him. I didn't want to like tell him I love you. Um, he, again, he's been like a really good influence, but now I just feel dirty.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

The Dr. John Delony Show

Yeah, I had an unfortunate situation where I... Found a picture of myself on my stepdad's phone and he had put a picture that I had posted on Facebook through an app that made me and the friend that was in the picture as well look like we were completely naked. It's my world kind of shattered.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

807.919

Yeah, no, I think you're absolutely correct. And I'm just really frustrated at myself for not like seeing what you're saying sooner of like, you're right. I have been chained to a predator and have made the most of the situation. But like, why did I not know?

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

825.538

Like I knew, you know, as you said, like my God told me, I just didn't, I don't know if I didn't care or didn't want, like, I'm just, I'm angry with myself. I'm frustrated.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

There was one time I remember I, um, I was rooming with, He was living with my mom and I was staying with his step, his daughter, my stepsister at his house. But he wasn't living there. And there was one night that he did come get into bed with me. Nothing happened, but he just slept there.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Stepdad Had an Inappropriate Photo of Me on His Phone

970.343

Yeah. I'm just, I'm really scared about telling my mom because, you know, ever since I was, ever since they got together, um, she's been telling me like, you don't deserve a man as good as him in your life. And she's always felt like she has to compete with me for him. And. But you know what? You know what? She was crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but now I'm seeing that like, wow, she saw. I mean, yeah.

My Husband’s Mistress Got Pregnant After I Had Our Baby

120.09

Over the duration of my pregnancy, he turned into someone I didn't recognize. He was very abusive and began doing drugs and drinking heavily with this girl. Our son was born in February of 2023, and he was not super present. So I was on maternity leave, and I decided to go visit my family over here in Seattle and get some support from them. And at that time, he moved her into our family home.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Husband’s Mistress Got Pregnant After I Had Our Baby

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Husband’s Mistress Got Pregnant After I Had Our Baby

285.767

Um, no. So he actually stopped paying on it. So it went into foreclosure. Luckily, um, the deed, like it's only in his name. Oh, okay. I help pay for things. Um, so that'll just hit his credit, which is fine. Um, And then, I mean, I moved over to Seattle. I have built a life for my son and I, I guess.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Husband’s Mistress Got Pregnant After I Had Our Baby

308.324

620.486

Yeah. I mean, we have pictures up of him with him for like the first two months he was around. But he hasn't, I mean, he's not old enough to really grasp that understanding yet. But that is definitely one thing that I'm struggling with is telling him when he's older. So I don't want to lie to him.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Husband’s Mistress Got Pregnant After I Had Our Baby

704.86

Oh, yeah. Not my bio dad. I don't know my bio dad, so I think that kind of aids in this feeling that I have.

The Dr. John Delony Show

My Husband’s Mistress Got Pregnant After I Had Our Baby

721.963

Okay. But yeah, my dad that's raised me since I was little, he's very involved, and my brothers are great with him, so he definitely has those male figures in his life, which I'm very thankful for.

The Unplanned Podcast with Matt & Abby

Renee & Tim "Thruhikers" on Walking from Mexico to Canada, Intimacy Outdoors & Getting Lost

1594.568

Well, I think it helped that Tim's siblings had some kids, so his mom stopped asking because she had grandkids. She was satisfied. And then we started going on these crazy hikes, so I think they just realized we're a little crazy. Sie können uns nicht kontrollieren. Das ist großartig.

The Unplanned Podcast with Matt & Abby

I think, I just remember being in like a lake and, you know, you're kind of really dirty, you don't shower that often. So you kind of like go in the water and scrub a little bit. So I think we were just standing, scrubbing half in the water, half out of the water. And there were just some... I feel like they were hunters or something out there walking by. Oops.

The Unplanned Podcast with Matt & Abby

Renee & Tim "Thruhikers" on Walking from Mexico to Canada, Intimacy Outdoors & Getting Lost

1712.827

I mean, I think when you're hiking, you just kind of get in, you know, we've been out there for a couple months and you just kind of get into a mindset of you're just free and don't really care and oh, okay, oops.

The Unplanned Podcast with Matt & Abby

I mean, I personally think it's easy, easier to go in the woods than on a toilet. That's a good position.

The Unplanned Podcast with Matt & Abby

Renee & Tim "Thruhikers" on Walking from Mexico to Canada, Intimacy Outdoors & Getting Lost

2325.007

Wir tragen einen ultra leichten Trowel. Also wir holen ein kleines Katzenholz weg vom Trail, weg vom Wasser. Squaten, uns um die Sache zu kümmern und dann... Wir benutzen eigentlich kein Toilettenpapier. Wir beginnen mit Stöcken oder Steinen und dann... Steine? Ja.

The Unplanned Podcast with Matt & Abby

Renee & Tim "Thruhikers" on Walking from Mexico to Canada, Intimacy Outdoors & Getting Lost

They were in a tent. It was the middle of the day, but they only had like the mesh part of their tent. They didn't have a rain fly up and their tent was pitched like down below the trail. So we were walking above them and we could just look down right into their tent. Jarring.

Yeah, but the problem was it was just a road. It was 12 miles back. It was just a road and we would have had to hitchhike back into the town, but it took us two hours for a car to pick us up the first time. So it was just like

Und die Stadt war wie eine 50-Menschen-Stadt oder so. Wir haben die Straße nicht zurückgefolgt, weil wir wussten, dass es keine Wasser auf der Straße gab. Wir haben uns unsere Maps angeschaut und gefunden, dass es Dirt-Räder gab. Und es gab Kuhwälder, die angeboten wurden. Also gingen wir zurück auf die Straße, auf diese Dirt-Räder, hoffend, dass diese Kuhwälder Wasser hatten.

Wir hatten genug Wasserbotteln, um 20 Meilen zu machen, weil wir dachten, das wäre unsere längste Strecke. Ja. Also haben wir uns kreativ gemacht. Wir tranken eine Menge Wasser, als wir da sitzen. Wir nennen es Cameling Up. Warte, ich habe gehört, es gab einen Mythos über Camels.

414.574

Yeah, so, but I mean, our typical approach is, you know, I hike in front, Tim hikes behind me, so I set the pace, and, because I'm a little slower than him, but if we get into an argument, we like split up and hike apart for an hour and cool down. But I can't like, Wenn ich von Tim weggehen will, kann ich es nicht, weil ich ein langsamer Hiker bin.

It's freaking me out. Okay. Filled up your pots. So then, yeah, we took off walking. And we actually... Wir haben einen Plastik-Wasser-Bottel gefunden, ich weiß nicht, 10 oder 15 Meilen später, wir haben einen halben vollen Plastik-Wasser-Bottel auf dem Boden gefunden. Schade an ihnen, aber gut für dich.

Und dann waren wir einfach so, okay, wir stehlen das für emergency supply und ja, wir bohlen es oder, du weißt, filteren und bohlen es, wenn wir es brauchen, aber ja. Und dann hat die Straße einen Weg geschlagen und es gab einen kleinen Rechner, wo du deinen Namen und den Tag nennen kannst, den du geschlagen hast. Und innerhalb des Rechners waren zwei kleine Gatorade. Ah, das war glücklich.

Ich habe dich völlig unterbrochen. Ein paar hundert Meilen später haben wir uns mit dem Mann getroffen, der die Gatorade in die Flasche gelegt hat. Er war im Camping am Wochenende und ich weiß nicht, wir haben darüber gesprochen und es kam heraus, dass er der war, der sie in die Flasche gelegt hat. Vielen Dank, wir wussten das tatsächlich.

And Renee was Blue Man. Blue Man? Yeah, I... Halfway through the trail I decided to buzz off all my hair, just because I was sick of it. You buzzed off all your hair? Yeah, so I had like a buzz cut. And then I had like, my base layer was bright blue, so everyone said I looked like I was in the Blue Man Group. But the base layer, like...

Ja, ich denke, was sagen die Hikerinnen am Ende einer langen Straße? Die Frauen sehen aus wie Göttinnen, sie sind super muskulär und dünn, aber die Männer sehen aus, als ob sie sterben. Es ist nichts mehr. Ich weiß nicht, warum, aber...

Ich denke, dein Geist ist einfach so frei und das Leben ist einfach so einfach. Du denkst wirklich nur über Essen, Wasser, Gehen. Und du hast kein Smartphone, also hast du dich nicht darüber beschäftigt. Du hast dich nicht wirklich darüber beschäftigt, was andere von dir denken. Du hast dich nicht über deinen Status im Weltraum beschäftigt. Du hast dich nur über Gehen beschäftigt.

Nein, ich glaube nicht. Auf unserer ersten Reise von Mexiko nach Kanada auf der Pacific Crest Trail haben wir entschieden, dass es eine gute Idee wäre, ein Handy zu teilen. Also hatten wir nur ein Handy zwischen uns beiden. Das war ein Fehler.
