It’s normal for children of divorce to “blame” someone. Sometimes there is no one to blame or a logical explanation for a divorce, but logic says someone is wrong. It’s the way humans are wired.
You state she is great with you. That’s because you are her son and she loves you. I hope you get over these feelings because she’ll always be your mom no matter what, and you only get one. You may consider taking a “break” from her and the surrounding drama (step back before “taking sides”). She certainly doesn’t have another dude to hurt you, but it is normal for you to be angry and hurt because of it. When you’re ready, you should talk about your feelings with her, and while you’re at it, find out how she feels. Adults have feelings too. Good luck.
Is it normal that I can't "forgive" my mother?
