My mother discovered my father is cheating on her. She was very upset and it was the first time I saw her cry. Truth is, I learned this a while ago. My dad asked to use my personal laptop when our family computer was broken he said all he had to do was check work emails. So I let him. Later that night, I picked it up because he had fallen asleep and I needed the laptop to do homework. There was some website where he was making plans to meet these strangers. I was disgusted. I closed out of it, erased the history, and never spoke of it. Out of sight out of mind. My mom told me her suspicions and she hired a private investigator to find out. She also confessed to me that this wouldn’t be the first time he cheated. He cheated on her when she was pregnant with me. I’m a huge pile of jumbled up emotions under the surface. I had always been close to my dad, maybe even more than I was with my mom. My world was turned upside down. I dont want anyone to know, I even wish I could forget it all. I won’t speak of it and will try not to think too much about it. I just can’t. Plus im sure im not the only one who’s been through this. Theres people who have worse family situations. So I feel guilty about worrying about this too.
