Parental betrayal feels like infidelity. Anyone else?
For those who were in the dark about their EP's (estranged parent's) actions and had a mostly positive view of them until everything came out in the open, do you relate to the stories of people facing infidelity from their spouse?
Everyone's situation is different. And I am not here to compare and contrast.
I am just saying whenever I read a personal account of someone finding out about the fact that their partner was cheating on them, the emotions just hit home. The betrayed spouse usually has a nagging feeling about something being wrong. The cheating spouse has all kinds of answers to placate the betrayed spouse. That is until clear proof is obtained. And then it is all hurt, pain, and betrayal.
Both situations are different. But the emotions of finding out the person whom you trusted is not the one you thought they are is just... 🫠
Anyone else?
