My mom is cheating on my dad and idk what to do.
a month ago i was tryng to buy something online using my mom’s phone when a notification suddenly pops up “love it’s so hot here” i didn’t open it. i continued browsing bc in my mind my mom would never cheat. i was giving her the benefit of the doubt.
later that day i stole her black book that contains her passwords and i logged in to my mom’s account. the whole convo was deleted. so now i was sure.
i was trying to ignore it for weeks but i was beginning to resent her so i checked her account again and there it was. I’m not even gonna describe it bc it’s disgusting for me.
my mom and dad aren’t married bc my dad was married b4 (divorce isn’t legalized in our country yet) and had 2 different families b4 us.
my dad was a heavy smoker, a drunk and an unreliable partner. my mom and sister would wake up in the middle of the night to get him at some random street.
it was like that all throughout my childhood until he got stroked. we didn’t really know what was happening at the time he was just “not feeling well” so we waited till the next day and ig we waited too long bc by the next day he was drooling and can’t walk.
he was hospitalized for months. my mom’s weight declined so much you would’ve thought she was the patient.
he came home in a wheel chair with a paralyzed arm and a bad temper. he was able to walk at some point but the temper stayed.
he would often have mental breakdown bc he couldn’t do anything properly. he would cry and get angry and complain about himself. he started drinking and smoking again to cope.
my mom cried and begged for him to stop but he just kept going. they started resenting each other.
my mom would come home from her 2 jobs exhausted. she would complain and scream about everything and anything she could to cope. she would criticize anything that my father would do.
for the past few years their relationship was cold as ice. i could tell they were just staying together to avoid the drama. we’re all just pretending that everything is fine bc emotion is not really a thing we talk about in our family.
but my mom and i were still somehow close.
and that’s why finding out that she was cheating is so shocking to me. she painted herself as this moral martyr person for years that it’s hard for me to see her in a new light.
even though i understand why she would cheat on my dad i still feel so bad. Every time I check her messages the more i resent her.
and even tho my dad is awful i feel bad for him too bc at the end of the day he’s getting cheated on and after almost 5 years he still can’t move his left arm.
so.. honestly my plan was to just ignore it and let my mom. but now it’s just eating on me day by day. best case scenario: i resent my mom my whole life and she doesn’t know why.
so… yea what should i do guys? should i lowkey ruin our family or do i keep quiet and hate my mom for it.
