This I Believe–Trae

Posted by jefferson8 on March 4th, 2008

I believe that I and my mom’s relationship will never be the same after what happened with her and this guy. The reason it will never be the same is because my mom met this guy and she said they were just friends but they really weren’t. They were more than friends my mom cheated on my dad with this guy. My dad was really mad but he had to be calm because of me, my brother and my sister. He knew we didn’t want to see them fight. When my mom told me what had happened we were driving to this guy’s  house but as soon as I heard pregnant I got so mad that I hated her and I felt like I could never talk to her or forgive her ever again. I got mad and didn’t talk to her for three weeks. I only talked to my dad I was so mad. When my mom took me back to the house I had to have someone to talk to so I called my friend. I walked to his house.  I told him what happened and all he could say was I couldn’t blame my mom for this but I didn’t believe him. I knew he was just trying to get me to forgive her but I couldn’t what she did was so bad it hurt seeing my dad like that. My dad is okay now and so am I but I still hate that my dad and mom aren’t together but I’m getting better. I and my mom are talking a little more but not as much as we used to. I and my mom used to be best buds but we really aren’t now. We’re getting closer. Me and my dad talk a lot more now to but I hate going to his house then my moms and back and forth and back and forth. That guy pretty much lives with us now and my dad can never come see us because he’s always there and I miss seeing my dad seven days a week instead of three days of a weekend. I’m learning to forgive my mom because that’s the only mom I have and I don’t want to lose her. I love her and everyone makes mistakes and she made one. No sin is bigger than the other. I’m a thirteen year old boy and this is my story.

    Woa. I can relate. My parents split when I was 7 cause my mom was cheating on my dad too. But I didn’t really care about it, they fought all the time even before that. So when they split it was slightly more peaceful in the household, even though her boyfriend sucked. But anyways, nice essay!
