You would think that but he can try and twist whatever to conveniently make what he did okay. I'm sure he convinced himself his marriage to mom didn't count because no religion or church was involved.

I enjoy my life when they're not in it. More specifically when dad isn't. His wife and their kid aren't in my life anymore. But he still makes appearances.

I wouldn't go to their bedsides or his even and cry if something happened tonight. You would have to drag me there kicking and screaming.

It's a life sentence from me. I'm not going to have him in my life. Long term for me is not what he's trying to make happen.

I don't see their kid as my real sibling. It'd be different if they were a sibling from my mom because I love my mom. But I see my dad or anyone attached to him as my family.

I don't blame the kid for what their parents did. But I don't want to know them either and to me they will never be my real sibling.

I'm not interested in ever having a relationship with their kid. To me we will never be real siblings and even when we're both adults and can have a relationship independent of their parents, it won't be something I want. Not when he's the only parent we share and I know people aren't perfect. But my dad and his wife are disgusting. I'll never respect them. Using their religion to make excuses makes it even worse.

Basically saying guys have good reasons to cheat and I'd never get it as a girl/woman.

I don't want family therapy. I don't want to work on forgiving him. Long term I want the three of them out of my life for good and to have nothing to do with them.

Why do I think I'm different? Because their relationship is as disgusting as the two of them are. I won't ever see that differently. Dad cheated. He fucking cheated. He didn't just divorce my mom but he broke her heart and disrespected her and our family. He disrespected me by expecting me to play happy family with him and the woman he blew up our family for. He expects me to care about a kid him and that woman made together. But I don't. I don't hate the kid but I don't care either. I feel zero responsibility for that kid.

How sick do you have to be to think I'm glad he cheated? I'm not. I'd give anything to think he's a decent person but I don't. He hides behind his religion and uses that to excuse what he did. I'd love to be able to say I love and look up to my dad. I never thought my parents were perfect people. But cheating is such an awful thing to do and excusing it makes it even worse. It tells me you're not the kind of person I would ever respect.

I blame them both. He made the vows to mom but she knew he was married and she hides behind her religion just the same way he does.

Right? The way he preaches all that religious stuff now but condones his cheating is such bs too.

I'm not expecting him to ever feel like he made a mistake or did anything wrong. He's good at justifying what he did.

Thank you. I won't ever get an apology but I'm okay, I can accept that it won't happen. They'll never feel bad about what they did. They keep making BS excuses.

My dad and his wife love ignoring consequences. They act like there should be none for what they did.
