Does anyone else feel desensitized to stories of infidelity?

I’m sorry for your parents. Expect your mom. She deserves better.
Yes there is so much infidelity. It seems like it has just exploded into epic proportions. Is it b/c social media make it easier to cheat? Who knows.
I have one grandma married 7 times. All D. She was a cheater through and through. She was a wonderful person and very kind but just cheated on everyone. Luckily my dad never did. Nor his siblings (that I know of but I’m not sure on one brother).
My other grandmother was widowed 3 times. 3 amazing husbands who were so wonderful to her.
My H was the one no one would have suspected or ever though would be a cheater.
I don’t know why people think it’s okay to destroy a family and your loved ones lives. How sad!
Survived two affairs and brink of Divorce. Happily reconciled. 11 years out from Dday. Reconciliation takes two committed people to be successful.

Yeah it runs rampant through my family and work.Nothing is surprising anymore.Whenever I hear another story I think of sodom and gomorrah.Is it just me or is a person who is faithful an endangered species?

If anything it has made me more sensitive and understanding of why people are the way they are.
My late grandparents had an awful marriage. He cheated a lot. She despised him, but they stayed very unhappily married. Kept up appearances for sake of 7 children and 21 grandchildren. My gran was miserable. I understand her now.
My mum cheated on my dad. I was 18 when I found out and I have never forgiven her. I have no idea if my dad ever found out but they stayed in a very unhappy marriage until dad died. Mum is still living but We are estranged. I don’t like her.
My own awful abusive marriage full of betrayal and infidelity will be an example to my children, for how Not to live your life.
I break down even hearing or seeing infidelity on television. I am far more sensitive and understanding. Empathetic from experience.

It’s everywhere. The vast majority of people I know have been on one end or the other of this mess. Makes me feel hopeless much of the time.
