I'm sorry to hear that friend. Sadly that is how the world is these days. Cheating wifes are more common that not-cheating wifes.

I don't do anything for my mom on mothers day, are you american? In my country it's like a 50/50 split of people caring about halloween, mothers day, valentines etc..

I'd advise making sure you stay in contact with your dad and let your mom know you're disappointed in her. But hopefully you can forgive her, you only have one mom. And your dad probably only has you while your mom has at least one other partner, a gang of hens as friends etc

I'm from the Netherlands, I used to make breakfast with my older brother and bring it to their bedroom when we were kids.

Currently studying in Japan where mothers day is huge and there's carnations everywhere. I was in a different city a year ago, and I sent her a card then. Not sending one this year would get the message across.

Thanks for your advice. They're likely going to get a divorce and my dad will start over in the town where my boyfriend lives, he likes it there. I'll have plenty of opportunities to visit him, and he told me he's looking forward to that. Not sure what else I can do for my dad now. Don't know what my mother's plans are.

Hell no, OP. She doesn't deserve it.

I see, norwegian here.

I don't think you should be mean to your mom but letting her know you do not approve of such behaviour is a must. Otherwise she'll think its fine and might brag or give you details you really don't want. Not sending a card sounds perfectly fine to me.

As for your dad, the most important thing you can do for him is just letting him know you care and are willing to listen if he wants to talk about anything, sob or whatever. He's the one that is definitely getting hit the hardest by this stuff, and males usually never see it coming either. Your mom probably has a plan lined up that has been in the making for years with finances and all taken care of so I wouldn't worry too much about her.

Send her a mother's day card that says you're not OK. Sounds like a good compromise. Maybe don't eviscerate her in print, but at least tell her you guys have shit to work out (in not so many words) the next time you see her.

Everyone cheats here in Japan too lol

Why bother getting married if you're just going to get divorced over something small like cheating

>>18279064
Nothing you will say or do will change a damn thing. Your mother is a liar and cheat. Its not a one time anomaly but at the core of who she is. Learn from this, stay civil, but you do not owe her any respect.

I'm pretty sure my mother is sad and she regrets it, but not for the right reasons. They can't keep the house and she's sad about that, for instance. Don't think she will brag, although she does say stupid things.

>>18279154
That sounds like a good one. I also considered getting a really plain one and signing it with just my name.

>>18279169
Honestly? I condemn cheating. This country is pretty retared in the first place.

>>18279191
I'm not expecting her to change. I already accepted that they're going to seperate and honestly it's for the best regarding my dad's happiness.
