This is the worst thing that can happen to a family. I know. I went through it when I was 10 years old and I felt betrayed by my parents.
And, its an ongoing thing. It never stops until one parent or the other passes away like my dad did.
I left my wife after suffering the death from thousand cuts. my youngest was already 17 and graduating from HS. My wife filled her head with lies and my eldest already figured not out. But my daughter and i reconciled when at 26 she told me she knew her mother lied about me. But now she is 47 and every now and then I feel the tension between us. It ll goes back to the divorce and the scar will probably never be healed.
Yep, me too. You are so right, it doesn’t end. It also affects the next generation. “Why don’t Grandma and Grandpa live together?” There’s a reason God hates divorce.
