She didn't feel appreciated, respected or loved by my father, so she went and looked for it in the worst way possible. I asked him "So what now? Are you two going to get a divorce?". All my father kept saying was that he didn't want too, and he loved my mother dearly. I was in complete utter shock. I knew he was heartbroken and in so much pain but why did he still want to be with my mother after doing such a despicable act. One top of the foul things that she said about him when he found out. All of these thoughts were rushing through my brain. Finally, my dad explained the meaning of being married and unconditional love. .
In his words, the meaning of marriage was to stay true to your vows. In your marriage, you will face obstacles that you never thought you could overcome, and it's your job to do your part, to keep fighting for what you want. My father explained that unconditional love comes from the deepest part of your heart, and it doesn't matter what the person did. He told me that it's an affection without any limits and putting the other person first not yourself. You should love them the same way you loved them since day one or even more. After hearing what, he said it opened my eyes since I recently got married in December. That day I loved my father even more. He showed me a side of him that I never saw in my life. He was always played the bad cop when I was growing up. I hated my father and that day he showed me his true character. I realize that he wasn't such bad guy after all. All he ever wanted was the best for his family, and he did his best. He showed me that day how a man should act and until this day I look up to him for what he overcame. For showing my mother that unconditional love after everything was all said and done, he tried to save his marriage. The counseling they went through was brutal, the constant arguing and bickering was aggravating. Multiple conversations about divorce were talked about in front of my brothers and me.
