She Caught Her Dad Cheating For The Fifth Time, So She’s Thinking Of Telling Her Mom
This 24-year-old girl caught her 50-year-old dad cheating on her 55-year-old mom, and it’s sadly not the first time.
She thinks this marks the fifth time her dad has done this, but it could also be the 50th, and she just doesn’t know about all the times in between.
The first time this ever happened, it was ugly. She actually went off on her dad’s mistress. Then, her dad and mom attended counseling, but it didn’t help at all.
“Second time, I caught my dad again,” she explained. “I kept seeing a name pop up on his phone. Someone I did not know.”
“I cried to my mom but she was more concerned with how I felt. She was shocked, but her seeing me cry, I guess she didn’t realize it didn’t only hurt her.”
“Third time, just like [the] second time. Another name popped up. I told my mom she shrugged it off and said as long as he’s doing his fatherly duties. [The] fourth time, she did not care.”
This brings us to now: her dad has been using his phone a lot more than he usually does. She noticed a woman named Vanessa was continuing to show up on his phone.
She doesn’t know anyone named Vanessa in her dad’s life. Then, one night, she came home, and her dad was out.
She called him up to question him about where he had gone, and he just was vague, telling her “somewhere.”

The thing is, it was 9 in the evening, and her dad is super lazy. He hates going out, yet here he was on a Friday night, anywhere but at home.
Her dad refused to tell her exactly where he was, and it was then that she knew he had to be out cheating.
She asked her brother to call her dad and ask for his whereabouts, and her dad said the same thing to her brother.
“Should I tell my mom?” she wondered. “My brother and I both know she’s not going to do anything about it.”
“They show zero love towards each other. They are just roommates at this point. They are the definition of a typical Asian household.”
“And if she does, she’s going to ask him, he’s going to say no or make a joke about him cheating to overthrow the fact that he is, and he’s going to storm away because he got caught and no one is going to talk to each other for about a week or two.”
What advice do you have for her?
