They Eventually Got Divorced
“My dad married someone who is not much older than me, she is younger than my brother. When they got married, she was 30, my brother was 32. My parents were married for 30 years, but no one was happier than my brother and I when they got divorced.
I didn’t care about the age difference, my dad seemed to be happy. I didn’t really like her as a person, she’s selfish, demanding, and generally just a whiner. One time she was visiting my husband, son, and I and she locked herself in the guest room, because she thought I hated her for trying to replace my mom. (My mom’s still around, I just don’t like you!).
I tried harder to be nice to her after that, even if I didn’t want to. These days, they are separated, about to be divorced. My dad is in his 70s now, she’s in her late 40s.” Story credit: Reddit / @annemg
