  • OP you have given us way little information. How was your parents marriage before this blow up? Were you not close with your mother before? You mention you are close with your father but nothing about mother. Also were you upset or angry by the actions of your father? From the information you have shared (that you are staying with your dad and his mistress), it seems that you are not bothered by what is happening.

    Now based on the limited information you have given, your father is clearly the guilty party here. He did something that is morally wrong. Hopefully you understand that. Your mom is very hurt and must feeling betrayed (slightly even by you because you chose to stay with your dad and his mistress). In that emotional state, she is making a unreasonable request to you (to go no contact with your dad). If you want a good relationship with mom, you will have sit down with her and reach an understanding and compromise with her. Maybe you can go to therapy with her like some other commenters suggested. One thing I am sure about is that if you side with father on everything, you will end up estranged from your mom.







  • Very few people don’t buy sedans or hot hatches. We are a vocal minority here on Lemmy. Most people don’t care much about driving dynamics, efficiency and other shit that enthusiasts care about. They want more interior space, better ‘road presence’ (whatever the fuck that means) and higher ground clearance.

    An SUV shaped car is box shaped and so it has better headroom, better legroom and looks big with bigger top body and higher ground clearance. People flock to buy it.

    It is a shame because SUVs don’t come anywhere close to the driving dynamics and fun that sedans or hot hatches bring. To me, a sedan looks far more elegant than SUVs ever can while hot hatches look more sporty than SUVs ever can
