[quote=Anonymous]It wasn't great, for a long time. I caught my mother in an affair with a married man in our small town when I was 16. My parents were already in the process of divorcing. Because the person was someone I knew well and the parent of a close friend, I felt really betrayed personally by all the lies they told me right to my face. We didn't get along for many years and I lived primarily with my dad. After I had kids, we've just sort of avoided the topic, but she is still with him. We have conflict when she tries to get us to play Big Happy Family or get me to validate her view that everything turned out for the best. While her AP eventually divorced his wife, I still think he is a loser and it's very awkward when I see his ex-wife or his children, who were once my closest friends. TLDR if you gotta cheat, pick someone who doesn't bring problems into the family, and accept that not everyone's going to want to spend time as a big happy family.[/quote]
