I’m having such a hard time accepting that my kids (ages 22 & 19) continue the same relationship with my WH/their dad after he has hurt me so badly. I feel like it’s a stab in the heart. He is manipulating and I don’t trust him. (After 27 yrs of marriage he has been having two yr affair with woman and has cheated with others). I am holding such contempt and trying to move past this but it’s so tough. I have been following my counselors advice to not bad mouth their dad and they don’t know all the details of his infidelity/the whole truth. I know I need to move past this but I am so mad at my WH. He is a liar and scum. How have you coped with these feelings? I’m looking for advice please
