Young Woman Can't Beleive Her Mom's Selfishness And Constant Cheating And Insults Her In The Worst Possible Way

Some people, unfortunately, turn to infidelity, causing irreparable harm to their families. In an even more bewildering move, instead of rectifying their actions, they sometimes seek validation for their behavior.

This story revolves around a case where OP, a 25-year-old eldest sibling of four children, recounts her family's experience. OP was merely eight when her mother had an affair with a family friend.

Being the eldest, she had vivid memories of the affair. The clandestine relationship was exposed to OP during family gatherings where her mother and the man were spotted in intimate situations, leaving her deeply disturbed.

The situation was particularly devastating as her father was battling cancer at the time. The affair was eventually discovered, leading to her parents' separation.

The family friend, who was the other man, also cheated on OP's mother shortly thereafter. Despite the turmoil, OP confronted her mother about the affair after her father's death, leading the family to seek therapy around three years prior to this recounting.

In the present, OP's mother is married to a supportive man. However, she recently ran into her former lover and began exchanging emails with him.

OP, having read the correspondence, suspects that the man still has feelings for her mother, who seems to be reciprocating his attention. OP's new stepfather, aware of her mother's past, disagrees with her actions but does not interfere due to it being part of her past life.

When her mother asked OP's opinion on meeting the former lover for closure, OP sternly advised her mother to distance herself from the man. She highlighted the potential of the reunion to ruin her mother's current marriage, just as it did the previous one, calling her mother's actions selfish.

This confrontation led to a temporary rift in their relationship.
