- untitled - what would you have done?

This is one of the question you are asked to answer, and here is what I said about it!

Imagine you have children with a partner and you are all living together. You catch your partner cheating, but you partner promises it was a one time thing. Do you think you would stay together with your partner?
  • Yes.
  • No.
  • Only until the children grow up.
Imagine you have children with a partner and you are all living together. You catch your partner cheating, but you partner promises it was a one time thing. Do you think you would stay together with your partner?

A True story:
When I was 18 and about to go to Vet Nam to war, My father told me about how one of my younger 5 brother's and/or 3 sister's not his, but was from our mother.
As he told me about Him working hard to bring home the bread and get the business going, He did let down his responsibility's to the family, and that one day a door to door sales man came by and found your mother just in the right mood and he said just the right thing to her ans she did go to bed with him, the one time. and a day or two later she was unable to keep this information to her self any more so she broke down and ask me ( my dad) to try to understand and please forgive her, then told him about the salesman.
At this point my dad in formed me that this one time happening did cause a child to be brought in to this world. and He said, his answer was:
I though about all the years I have put in to this marriage, and the other children, and the fact that he did still love her, all this and then there was the fact that she did have sex with this guy, and she is now carrying a child who is not his!
So do I go get my Lawyer, and end this marriage, here and now. yes I have grounds and proof. at that point He ask me "what would you do?"
I could not answer, So he answered for me.
He said to her, I love you, and understand how you could have gotten in a way that cause you to need a man and I was not there doing MY JOB as your husband, So I am at fault here not you. I can not pull my self to blame you for me not doing my job and being the husband or man you wanted and ask for. So Yes I forgive you and as long as this never happens again and I promises to be the man in your life from here own. they were married for over 50 years, and died with 30 day of each other. and none of the children found out which one of us was that child..

Unrelated but curious...

You are listed as 52 years old, that makes you born in what, 1957 or 1956? That would make it 1974 or 1975 when you turned 18. The last US combat troops in Vietnam left in March of 73 after the peace accords were signed, with the exception of DoD advisors and the Embassy Marines.

An image of Stevie217 scifi, that is what I was thinking. I joined the military when I was 18 and I was born in '55 and the war was over a few months after I joined.

I also wonder why a father would reveal such a story to his child. That would be devastating news, and to tell them right before going to war?

There are a surprisingly high number of children born to married women that are not the husband's child. DNA testing brings out a lot of secrets.
