Is it okay that I don't have an ounce of empathy for the OW

I agree. Your friend shouldn't be trying to make you feel bad about this, and it's really strange that she is.


I agree.


Agree. If OP came from a faith tradition that required her to forgive (I know some people who have experienced this) and no forgiving was tearing her up, yeah then maybe working toward forgiveness would be helpful. I think most of us who have been in this position are okay with feeling angry. I know my anger is definitely less visceral, but I wouldn't waste my forgiveness energy on the OW.


Forgiving is not the same thing as excusing.

Your friend probably slept with your husband. Also, there are a lot of cheaters that visit this page. Just take note of that.

Why should you? She slept with your husband and f***ed with your life. What goes around comes around

Yeah.

I talked to the OW once after it happened to her. She said something about "I saw her, and thought ' he cheated on me with THAT?!'"

My response was "I know how that feels..."

You owe her no empathy OP. Your so-called friend is nuts.

+1.

You don't need this person in your life. Like ever! And don't worry about the half sister. I have one and it's frankly awkward.

I disagree about the sibling thing, but still, let your ex manage the relationship between his children.

As stated, the sibling thing is not as big of a deal as people are making it out to be. Would you want to be around someone that was produced from someone that broke up your family? Don't force it. Just let the siblings work it out on their own.

Because it’s a child that had nothing to do with anything, and their sibling loves them?

Do they though? The kids seem like they are pretty little if they never saw each other again it wouldn't be that big of a deal. But as pp stated it's their FATHER'S job to manage that relationship not OP.

If only life were that simple. It never is.

Peoplenever meet their birth parents, and it’s a big deal. A sibling is as well.

I'm with you too, OP. Karma's a b****.

You don’t need to feel bad for her, but I’d avoid posting a “what goes around comes around” monologue on Facebook. That’s the only kindness I’d give.

Mine has 3 half siblings via my cheating ex.

He doesn't give a damn about any of them.

It isn't up to OP to foster a relationship with her ex's other kid(s).
