my mom caught my stepdad cheating..

[momomommy16]

Yesterday we went to look at some houses that were for sale/rent.(they're in the process of moving) there was a sign in front of a neighborhood that said "for rent call blah blah blah" my mom could not find her phone at the moment so she asked my step dad if she could use his. He dialed the number and gave her the phone. As soon as she hung up there it was, a text that said "baby call me or text me" my mom lost it. She went through that other messages and it said "baby what are you doing". To end the story short my mom is completely heart broken and broke up with my step dad. He claims he doesn't know the person that it must be an error. We all know that is b.s.

My question is: how do I make my mom feel better? She looks so depressed I don't know what to say/do.

Bump! I need suggestions!

Take her our for a mani pedi. Hug her. She's gonna grieve. Just be there for her as a shoulder to cry on. That sucks I'm sorry.

Unfortunately there is not a lot you can do, I agree with Meesh though, spoil her a  little, try and get her out and about, and just be there. I'm sorry, hopefully she realizes sooner or later that she's better off without him!

 All you can really do is be there for her. Let her cry, scream, vent, maybe spoil her a bit. She needs to grieve and get over him in her own time. Sooner or later she'll realize that shes better off without him.

Thanks girls. I feel so bad for her /: I know how it feels to be cheated on and it sucks.

Has he ever giving her a reason to cheat? if not give him the benefit of the doubt to prove himself.
If it is true then just be there for her...sorry to hear this. Hope things work out.

Just be there for her.  You can't "say or do" anything, really.  She has to go through a process of grief and anger on her own.  But, having you near and knowing you support and love her can help her get through it.  Just be there and it will remind her there are positive things to look forward to once the hurt stops.

This isn't the first time he messed up though. Last time he left his 3 year old son alone to go drink with his buddies. I was inside the house though but I was sound asleep. I didn't know he left.
and honestly if you say that in your bf phone wouldn't it be obvious?
