So my parents have been seperated (not legally) for the last 5 or so years. During that time, my dad has had a lot of affairs, including one with my second cousin.

My mom has always tried to keep a good example for us, and didn't date or see anyone because she's still married. And we're Mormon.

Last summer, when we went to China to visit my dad (who lives there, we're in Seattle), she became obsessed with online dating sites like singlesnet and match.com. She also met another man at a party. They're still dating right now. Kind of. But I'll get to that later.

So throughout the past year, she's been seeing random guys from the websites, and to every one of them, she says she's been divorced for years. I had an issue with it then because since she's not all that great at written English, I had to do her email and online chats for her. Needless to say, it disturbed the hell out of me and after a few months, I had a big outburst where I said, no, i'm not doing this anymore. Which didn't stop her at all, she just had my 9 year old brother do it. I was 14, by the way.

So on to Greg, the man she met at the party. He's a really nice, super Catholic guy. He's really kind to her, and brings her gifts. My brother and I like him too. Even if she wasn't lying to him about the fact that's she's still married, I still think he's too good for her.
Greg has a tendency of being late to things. He says he'll come at 7pm, and ends up arriving at 9pm. He's a huge handyman at his house and always is working on something, so he has a pretty legit reason. My mom though, strings him around, mocks him, and tries to make him jealous. Once, he came and sat in our driveway for 2 hours, missing church (he's a devout Catholic) while my mom was at the gym next door, ignoring his calls, because he was about an hour late. To make it up to her, he gave her a real, salt water pearl necklace, which she didn't even appreciate much. Instead, she wanted more committment and more presents.

Then, in December, he finally realized the way she acts, and decided to cool off their relationship a bit. He wanted to just be dates and stuff like that, and my mom is looking for a long term relationship. He just thought they were moving a little too quickly for him, since he wants to carefully build up their relationship, which my mom took as, completely cutting off all contact.

That's when she went back on match.com and met a man named Ron. He's 59 years old, (she's 44) and they began dating. He's nice to us too, but still. While she's married. And while she's dating Greg. Both of them don't know any of this.

Then, Greg decides to rekindle their relationship, and is showering her with gifts to keep her happy. My mom is so happy she has two guys in love with her, she sees them both. Greg half the week, Ron the other half, until Ron moved to Utah for his work. Now he comes for holidays, and my mom makes up stories to Greg about why he can't come.
This is where I got really annoyed. Ron is a devout Mormon. Greg is a devout Catholic. Both of them would be destroyed to know the truth. My mom, who is a believer that violence and discipline solves everything, would destroy me.

The saddest part though, is how my dad and mom are having affairs right in front me and my brother. At least my dad tries to hide it, but all my mom does all day now is talk on the phone with either Greg or Ron, or her friends, telling them about it, who all think she's amazing for scoring two guys at once at her age. My brother thinks there's nothing wrong with this. Seriously. He's 10 now, and he thinks cheating on your husband and boyfriend isn't wrong at all. Watching this whole ordeal however, has made him lose his respect for women, and has turned him a bit bitter and spoiled since my mom pays us literally no attention at all now. My mom loves to talk about her guys with us, including their *** life, which I DO NOT want to hear.

I'm am so sick of this, and just want to move out, but I have no where to go. I have a grandma who's in love with the idea of her daughter marrying an American man, a dad who's in affair with different women and his job, which is in China, and a Jehovah's Witness aunt and uncle who ...ugh. (no offense to other JW's AT ALL. My aunt and uncle are just wierd.)

What are your guys opinions on this? I can't talk to family, since they all know and they're all supportive, or my mom's friends, since they're supportive too.

I don't want to hurt my mom by telling people in the community, and it's so embarassing for my friends to know this.

I'm just so tired of keeping it inside. It feels so good typing it all on here, where it's anonymous.

Please no bashing about how I'm whining. After 4-5 years of this, I'm ready to leave, but I can't, with college still 3 years away.

Oh yeah, when I talk to my dad about it, he sends me away, and when I talk to my mom, she either hits me, or cry about how I'
To the guy who emailed me about the divorce, it's because my dad has a successful business in Beijing (Rainier Technology) and my parents had a prenup, I think, and my mom wouldn't get any more money if she divorced.

This is straight from her mouth.
