Throwaway because my mom follows my main. 🫠

So a few years ago, my mom was going through a nasty divorce with her (now ex) husband. They had a ton of financial drama, and to avoid having to split the house she owned before marrying him, she quietly transferred the deed to me, her oldest daughter. I was 23 at the time, living with roommates, and didn’t fully understand the implications, but she told me, “It’s just temporary. I trust you more than any lawyer.” Okay. Whatever. Signed the papers.

Flash forward to now, I’m 26, the house is legally mine, and I live in it. I pay the taxes, upkeep, everything. My mom already owned an apartment, and with the divorce and everything she kind of forgot about the house, and I guess it was implied that I would be able to keep living in it. had She moved out of the apartment a year ago to go travel with her new boyfriend, who is 34 (she’s 52). He’s really creepy, and has made a few sleazy comments to me, but that’s a story for another day. Recently, she asked if she and her boyfriend could “stay for a while” while they figured out their next steps. I agreed as long as they treated it like guests and didn’t try to play house. Two weeks in, she’s acting like the queen of the castle again. Telling me I “dress inappropriately in my own kitchen” and “shouldn’t bring random men home” (I’ve been dating my boyfriend for 8 months???).

Then last week, she told me I needed to “find somewhere else to stay for a bit” because her boyfriend needs a quiet space to “work on his music.” This man records SoundCloud trap in my dining room. I laughed, thinking she was joking.

She was not.

Two days later, she served me some fake-looking “eviction notice” typed in Comic Sans. I really wish I was joking.

I reminded her calmly that I own the house. It’s in my name. It’s been that way for three years. She turned red, started screaming that I “betrayed” her and “used her vulnerable moment to steal her property.” She called me a snake and said I’m “choosing a roof over family.”

Now my aunts and cousins are blowing up my phone, saying I need to “do the right thing” and “give her the house back because she’s your mother.” Even my little brother is saying “Mom’s crying every night, just fix it.”

I could transfer it back mainly because I’m scared she might bring lawyers into the mix. But she tried to kick me out of my own home… for her SoundCloud boyfriend.

So… AITA for refusing to give it back?
