My father has been having an affair for the last 6 years. I

The fact that you didn't tell your mom/his partner 6 years ago when you first discovered it, makes you a really shit person. Seriously.

whatever you choose, it will hurt.

hurt you mom, hurt you, hopefully you don't have siblings.

can your mom manage to live on her own? is she passive? is she aggressive?

if she is passive, she will internalize it, and do nothing, and undoubtedly live with the pain knowing all the love she put in was for nothing

if she is aggressive, will she pursue divorce, does she work? does your father make enough? will he be splitting half? will she get the house? will she be out on her own?

you need to think carefully about this as easing your burden won't ease hers unless she has a solid plan to live in case of divorce.

just think it through anon

>ripping your family apart whilst still being dependent on them

Sounds like a great idea for OP! Perhaps instead of berating him you could offer some advice

Fuck you, her dignity and self-worth is worth more.

beat your dad up

I was a child, sorry for trying to hold onto whatever semblance of a 'family' i could after I found out it's all been a lie...

I do have siblings, but we are both over 20. I honestly cannot say how my mum would react, though I would lean towards the passive side. All assets would probably have to be split if she did pursue divorce, which would mean moving to a smaller house and her getting a job since my father is the primary breadwinner.

>He is constantly texting the bitch and I have read the text conversations when he leaves his phone unattended.

sounds like the problem is you being a creepy fucking snooper.

Stop checking out people's phones.

You are in no position to do anything. This is between your mom and your dad.

I bet she knows the whole time and simply chose to ignore it. Some people are like that.

>stupid frogposter

Same happened to me but it was my mom instead of dad. Once I discovered it I put a key logger on her computer and found she was into some seriously fucked up shit even though she seemed like Martha Stewart type.

It's only a matter of time me before he's found out. People have a tendency to shoot the messenger
Didn't have the balls to tell my dad. They eventually got divorced.

What was she into? Sorry just super curious
