Today, I was on Facebook and my step mother wrote "Happy 25th anniversary sweetie" talking to my dad. I thought it was cute, until I did the math... My parents divorced when I was 5, I am 28... 2 years are overlapping FML

It's obvious the had an affair. That was the cause of the divorce. Not that difficult to figure out.

At some family dinner, on of my older half sisters asked my dad and his third wife (who he introduced to us when I was fifteen, about a year after he separated from my mother) when they fell in love with each other. Apparently I was less than two years old at that time.

My parents separated when I was 2 but the divorce wasn't finalized until I was 6. My mother married my stepfather the minute the divorce was finalized. She started dating him the year prior.

They were already seperated so it's not pike there was any deception going on. It's a completely different situation.

Wait. The divorce happened when OP was 5. They're 28 now. The step mom and bio dad were celebrating their 25th anniversary. Doesn't that mean it's closer to three overlapping years?

If that's the case or your family is anything like this post- I'm so ******* sorry you have to find that out the way you did, and it was really unfair of your dad to do that to your bio mom, you, and any sibs you may have. If it gets to really bothering you, I suggest writing a letter about your feelings in the matter to him- even if you don't send it, it will help lance the wound.

This person! ^^^^^ Hey, write a letter to them. Yeah because "expressing" your feelings on paper will solve problems. How about just don't be so sensitive. You are the problem, not the solution. Ha, write them a letter. Maybe I should write an open letter to all the liberal ass hats who offend me by trying to force their beliefs on me while at the same time trying to force my beliefs out of me. Oh, and no I'm not talking religion.
