My Father is Cheating on My Mother I don't believe him/this! I suspected him of it several moths ago, but now I know he is. My mother would be so hurt if she found out. I haven't told anyone and don't know what to do or if I should say something. I'll try to keep how I know of this short. A few months ago, my boyfriend and I were looking fro a parking space (I live near them) and he pointed out my father leaving the house, using his cell phone and looking behind him and it looked suspicious, but I shrugged it off.
Next, I saw him outside the house on his cell phone and he didn't know I was behind him. He was laughing in a low tone and I could tell that it was a woman he was laughing with. I walked in front of him, frowned at him and shook my head and startled him. A few minutes later, he knocked on my door looking all nervous and made p some bullshit story that it looked like i dropped somehting which I did not. Finally, this weekend he was outside my house and his cell phone rang - I could hear him through the window. He got all hype and was like "You called me 10 times last night, you know you can't do that, blah, blah, blah. then he starting explaining to this bitch where he was last night and this skank had the nerve to be fucking questioning a married man she fucking! When he was talking to her he walked near where my backyard was and I eavesdropped to confirm my suspicions. Before he got off the phone with her, he said, "I better go, I'm near my daughter's house right now." A few minutes later, I asked him if I coudl use his cell phone and made up a story about wanting to test a ring tone on mine. I scrolled through his call history and pulled up the last number that called him and gave it back. I called the number from my phone, and blocked it and a woman answered just like I thought would. I am soo goddmaned pissed and and and want to hurt this bitch and him! I'm torn on what to do. Has anyone ever had this ahppen to them? [Edited 3/21/07 9:20am] | |

do nothing regards to your father or the "other woman". Don't tell your mom either, that is not your place.
but be ready to be there for your mother when she finds out. As for your feelings in this, you are an adult and it sucks when we finally learn that our parents are fallible, and sometimes cheaters. You need to realize that you are disappointed in your dad and deal with your relationship with him. But he is not married to you so don't confuse your loyalty to your mom with your feelings as a disappointed daughter. Take care hun We all should know that diversity makes for a rich tapestry, and we must understand that all the threads of the tapestry are equal in value no matter what their color. Maya Angelou | |

Let me get this straight? This is happening to a relationship in which your mothers perceive that everything is normal?
This is really sad. Men are assholes. | |

you should warn your mother. talk to your dad first and ask him to tell her himself. if he refuses warn her,.
she should not have to be exposed to an STD carried by another woman | |

Take care hun It's hard not to say anything to the other woman, but I know I can;t without him finding out so that is stopping me. I never thought of them as infallable, but I never thought he would cheat. | |

You don't know this woman - she owes you nothing.
Your father on the other hand, took vows, and should be held accountable to both you and your mom. I know that it's easier to put those feelings on someone you don't care about, but it's your father's actions that have caused you hurt. I'm not defending what this woman has done, I just think that people who cheat tend to get off easy alot of time by placing blame on the other person and not taking responsibility for their own actions. Yes it takes two to tango but you don't always have to dance. PS: I really think you need to talk to you dad and tell him if he doesn't tell your mom, you are going to (and give him a time frame). She needs to know - whatever his excuses are. The only ones you are protecting by keeping silent are him and his lover.

[Edited 3/21/07 9:47am] Yeah, he lies to her face about where he's going, where he's been and like I said lying about work. He does keep irregular hours, and that works in his favor in this situtation. I'm tempted to follow him to see where this cunt (excuse my strong language - I don't normally talk about other women like that) lives. I have brothers and sisters, and don't know if they know or if I should say something to them. | |

right now this is only between you and your father.
you don't know what's going on yet (other than those few concrete sentences you've heard) but in talking close to your home perhaps he wanted you to hear? you heard enough to ask your father what is up. i know i would be right there wanting to go follow some other woman but sitting here away from the situation i don't think you need to get mixed up in anything like that. talk to him when you are ready. when you know what he has to say you can go from there. ![]() [Edited 3/21/07 10:06am] | |

[Edited 3/21/07 10:06am] I don't think he meant for me to hear. He was outside shoveling snow from the night before and I happened to have the window open. | |

I wouldn't know where to start. Maybe confide in a brother or sister, somebody who can talk to your dad with you. This is a terrible situation and facing it alone isn't easy. How your mother chooses to deal with it is up to her, but she needs to know (imo) .. [Edited 3/21/07 10:14am] | |

I guest you never said anything to your father? I can't really remember but he was always a huge flirt with women and he knew that used to make me angry. It annoyed me when some bitch was stealing his attention away from me and he thought it was "cute" when I would get jealous. I used to get so pissed. But I'm here if you want to talk. | |
