Me (13 years old at the time): Dad, Mom’s cheating on you. I saw her making out with this man.

Dad: Listen here, princess. The guy’s filthy rich, and when you have money, it’s normal to have a hot mistress like your mom.

Me: But aren’t you jealous?

Dad: laughs

I was flabbergasted, lmao.

    That doesn’t sound like cheating, that’s more like an open relationship. He knew about it and didn’t care.

      The financial incentive makes it closer to pimping than swinging, at least potentially. Idk if the possibility the dad was getting something out of it besides, I guess, sexual pleasure stemming from cuckoldry makes it better or worse…

        As one who was in a similar situation to said dad person, back in the day: ¿Por que no los dos? 🤪

      I can understand how a 13 yo OP thought it was cheating though. They haven’t said they think it is cheating nowadays :)
