I have nc’d for this. Long story short, I’m in my mid 30’s and married with two DC. My DD had an EA (but with a woman he had an actual affair with over 30 years ago) my DM has said she is done. (To be fair I don’t blame her,) I’m obviously heartbroken and I’m finding it hard to process. My DD has always been a wonderful father and grandfather and I thought they were such a solid couple (and they were in MANY ways).
I am angry at him but he had nowhere to go so he is staying with me for the moment, and to be honest he is still my dad I do love him. I am starting now to feel angry, disappointed and that this is all a big inconvenience right now (I just don need all of this) I keep thinking of celebrations like Christmas and birthdays and if the rest of life is going to be awkward, I don’t want it! I refuse to have it that way! It’s very early days and my head is a mess, so please be gentle. Has anyone here been through a parental separation as an adult? Any advice?! Am I being selfish or are they normal thoughts??
