This kid doesn't know just how iconic he is for doing what he did. After trying to reconnect with his birth father, both of his biological parents sat him down over a video call and asked for his understanding if they go no-contact.

Yup, you read that right. For a little backstory, the Redditor was the by-product of an extra-marital affair (both of his biological parents had spouses and stayed with them). He was primarily raised by his mother's grandparents, with his birth father secretly providing some child support over the years without his wife's knowledge. As he grew older, the Redditor wanted to get to know his birth father and half-siblings, so he started following them on social media. 

Soon thereafter, the birth father had to get in touch with the Redditor's birth mother, presumably for the first time in years. Together, they tried to convince the original poster (OP) to leave them alone. At this point, OP had enough for their selfishness and decided to do the exact opposite. So much for hoping to reconnect with his biological parents!

Keep scrolling below to see what happened after OP got in contact with the spouses of his so-called parents. For more stories like this, take a look at this post about an entitled Karen's temper tantrum at the airport.

    Your birth parents have been and continued to be completely selfish arseholes, and everyone deserved to see who they really were.

    They basically wanted you to not exist. Of course you got angry and wanted to hurt them.
