stress & emotional wellbeing

I feel like my mom is cheating on my dad and is hiding it from all of us to see but I saw her texting some random person i don’t know and she sent him 2 pictures the looked as if she was trying to get a boys attention and he replied “hey baby” “I miss you” then she replied to him with a long text that I couldn’t read and I feel like my parents are drifting apart 😭

    I’m really sorry to hear this. That must be incredibly difficult. Perhaps the best thing to do is continue to gather more information and once you have a clear answer, bring it up with your father perhaps? It may be very difficult but he deserves to know if your mother is in fact cheating.

    If she is cheating, it might be better for you to talk to her about it and her reasons for doing it rather than taking it directly to your dad. If you feel that your dad needs to know, it might be better coming from her than you. Cheating can be devastating for the family but very often we fail to see why our loved one needed to find something fulfilling outside of a relationship. This is not to say whether it’s justified or unjustified.
