when my mom learned of my dad's supposed A, she got herself a man a few months shortly after, how I hated that man who mom got to feel better about herself, I think I was 10 at the time, I wasn't stupid,I knew what was going on and felt the man as an intruder.
Yep, me, too, and I was 5. Totally despised every man that came into my mom's life after she and my dad split up. No matter how much my mom liked any of them, I hated them that much more.
I feel very badly for this little girl, especially since her father has chosen his new chick over his own flesh and blood. Oh, but I forgot! It's only temporary.....Puh-lease.
Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward. ~ Joseph Campbell
