One of my good friend's parents divorced after 25 years of marriage. Right after she (the baby) graduated high school

It came to light later that her Dad had been sleeping with the &quot;family friend&quot; for many years and no one knew...

Apparently they &quot;stuck it out&quot; until the kids were &quot;grown&quot;

My friend now has a very messed up perspective on marriage and feels like the family unit she was raised to appreciate was all a farce
