lol, what am i even reading here. aside the fact that the mum is rn literally in the shoes of a brand new person and there's now a huuuge age difference.. aren't some of you people aware that you don't part ways only if one of the two is a "loser"?? people can split cause they don't match anymore, because they find different new paths, because they fall out of love etc etc. divorce exists as well. is a person bound to always stay with the other just so they won't give anyone emotional stress? why is the mum the one who's seen as the person who has to be responsible for her husbands personality or troubles? no, really, aside her loving him or not, and even just generally speaking, don't you know that making a person stay in a relationship pressing on their duty (she has to or he'll feel sad) is just making the person go thru something toxic?
