My parents have been married for 25 years and I don't want to ruin it by telling my mother about my father's infidelity. But I did talk to my father, I told him that if he don't leave her mistress I will tell mom. He said it's over between him and the woman but I don't if I'll believe him.

Hi,
First at all, I'm sorry to Hear That.
This is really a difficult situation for you, I feel what you feel. But however life must continue. I hope you can find a solution to your problem with your father. Family problem is a complicated issue for us to discuss, but at least, a lot of advice will you be able to be tackled immediately. I think what the natural father is already common in long marriages. Maybe that second puberty. I can only give support to you to continue struggling to cope with your father. But keep this from your mother. Do not let your mother hurt.
Good luck friend

You did the right thing.
Now,if you feel that your father is still having an affair,you can also talk with the mistress.
And if ever you will confirmed that you father is still having connection with the mistress,at least him a last warning.
I am sure your mother will be devastated if she ever comes to know this.
Be strong...your mother needs you.

It is rightfully your father's place to your mother such a thing. But if you know imagine how many others probably know and if it were you wouldn't you want to know? I certainly would! There comes a time in a man's life when he wonders and goes through a change of life.

You mother have great patience. You have to support her. And clearly explain to her.

This is very sad. Temptation is really hard to resist. 25 years being together was not enough to ward away temptation.
Well, you must confirm your hunch first before you make your action. It is a disaster if your father was truly repented and the burst out the story to your mother. Tainted trust is hard to clean you know. Better be sure than sorry.
If in case you proved once again that your father was doing the did again, I believe your mother has the right to know. It's up to you how you will tell her the news but please be sensible. Good luck.
