My Parents have been married for 21 years...ever since they were teenagers themselves but my dad was offered a job which meant he would be away a lot coming back every 2 weeks but after about 4 months of this he started coming home less often and my mum just thought that it was because the job was very important and that he needed to be there to keep the office in order. well at the begining of december while on holiday my dad told my mum tha he was leaving her and my mum asked if there was anyone else and he said no one important, on the 23rd of december 2 days before christmas he tells my mum that he is in love with another woman. that night me my brother (who is 5 years older and has recently left home) and my mum sat down with my dad and tried to get him to re-think everything and show him that we love and need him at home. I must admit christmas was pretty crappy my dad still adamant that he was leaving us but claimed he would still come back every weekend, but its more likely to be every other weekend.
