[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 647326, member: 1550"] gjax58, although I in no way condone what this lady did (trust me on this), it is also partly our adult children's responsibility to be careful about who they live with and marry. I have talked to my son and we have tried to analyze why he was ever drawn to somebody like his ex because her behavior is on her shoulders, however his choice to be with her and to have a child with her, after it was clear she would not be faithful, was HIS decision. Hopefully our men and women "children" learn from their mistakes. I hope your son moves on and does not let himself become overtaken by the ugly emotion of rage/revenge. He can hold his head up now. That is his revenge, so to speak. It is best to let things go, in my opinion. I can't stand my son's ex, but I don't spend time thinking about her or wish her ill or wish her much of anything at all, good or bad. She is not a part of my life. My son is doing a good job of trying to deal with her himself, as he has no choice. It is hard for him because he has a difficult temperament and gets angry easily, but he's getting better at it. He's stuck with her because they share legal custody of my grandson. A lot of us, parents on this forum, did not pick such hot spouses ourselves and I am certainly one of those. But I picked him and that decision, because we have children albeit grown, make us sort of stuck together for life...yuk!!! There are lessons to be learned even from terrible experiences. That's the good news. You already know the bad :) [/QUOTE]
