[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm going in a different direction. It's not your marriage. Your mom either knows, suspects, or doesn't care. MYOB, or at best tell your dad to be more careful with his email. It's never your place to blow up someone else's marriage.[/quote]

Op would not be the one blowing up her parents' marriage.  If Op's mom wants to be in denial or if she wants to ignore what it is going on she totally still has that option even after getting the forwarded email.  For all Op knows, her mom already knows about this affair and doesn't care.

But expecting Op to walk around with the burden of this secret is not fair and it is not a reasonable expectation.

Ignore the PP it's a cheater that hopes one day their daughter will MYOB and blame the faithful spouse. Whatever... Damaged people are so predictable.[/quote]

Wrong. I'm not the damaged one. I'm a grownup who was cheated upon. My kids should not be in the middle. I'm sorry you were cheated upon and are so bitter that you think putting your kids in the middle is a good idea. Hope your ex is paying the therapy bills.[/quote]

PP, OP's case is not one where some parent is putting a young kid or teen "in the middle." OP is an adult. Neither parent has asked OP to get involved or to stay silent. OP is not a kid being treated like a pawn in a divorce--there is no divorce yet and neither parent knows OP knows what's up. (At least that was the case until OP informed mom today.) Good that you didn't put your kids in the middle of your divorce but that's not at all the situation with OP.[/quote]
