Hey kids! My name is Amanda, but call me Manders. I'm a psychology/neuroscience/biology student. Throw me questions and I'll throw you an answer. :)
advice
I get choked up asking this, but I need answers. My mom and dad have been married for 2 years. But last night, I was over at my dad's best friend, Bobby's house. Then the doorbell rang so Bobby went to get it. It turned out to my dad barefoot and cying SO hard. My mom wasn't with him, so i was scared that something had happened to her. He kept yelling "That unfaithful bitch, that unfaithful bitch!"
Then my dad and Bobby went into a back room so I couldn't hear them talking. I'm really scared. My dad isn't talking to me, and he stays all cooped up in the house and doesn't go to work and he makes me cook all the meals. He hasn't stopped crying yet and I'm SO scared!He hasn't told me the problem adn i really want to know! What happened last night? Why is my dad so sad? Where's my mom? When will my dad get over this? PLEASE HELP! I'll rate 5's for great answers.
It sounds like your mom was cheating on your dad, and he just found out that night. I'm not jumping to conclusions or anything, that's just what it seems like.
The reason he isn't talking to you is (Probably) because he needs time to think. I'm sure it wouldn't be easy to tell you about whatever happened. He also needs time to get over the pain he's going through. Don't push him to tell you what happened: Give it time.
Does your mom have a cell phone or e-mail address? Try contacting her in those ways, if you can. If you can't, then you'll probably just have to wait.
Ask Bobby what's up, and tell him that you're worried about your dad. He might not be able to tell you, so don't ask a lot. Ask once, and if he won't tell you, drop it.
Your dad will get over this with time. It may be a long time, it might be a short time. It depends on the person.
Continue to love and be there for you father, he needs that right now.
I hope I helped, and feel free to leave a question in my inbox!
