[quote=Anonymous]You cannot just ask for help and think everything is roses. As I say, you're young. Once you're in a relationship with someone for 20+ years and beaten down, things look different. Nobody cheats because they're in a happy, fulfilling marriage. If your mom was normal before (as in had no obvious mental issues that lead to irresponsible choices), then your dad is no angel. Most marriages are unhappy. There are a lot of women who would leave, if they had enough money. Sure, you can resent, but you also have to understand that your mom is her own person and her life is not just you and your dad. Mom's needs often come last. The fact that she cheated with your brother's coach shows how small her social circle had become. I say this as someone who has never cheated, but I'm absolutely going to be out once kids are done with high school, I've had enough of putting everyone else's needs and wants before mine for 25 years.
