What should I do?

My mum is having an affair with another man, I have his number, but she's married to my dad. My dad and sister knows and my sis is self harming. I've never liked my mum, she prefers my sister because I'm a lesbian and makes me dress more girly although I like to wear masculine clothes. Should I tell her I know because it's killing me inside. I can't keep the secret forever.

    You don't list how old you are, but if you can go seek a therapist to help you until you can move out.

    It sounds as though your entire family could use some therapy, and your parents a divorce lawyer. However they are their own people, and you are only responsible for you - remember you aren't alone, there is help, you just have to get out and find it.

    What secret? Your dad knows. Your mom obviously knows. You know. It's not a secret. If you feel bad, and you do, it's not because anyone kept that secret. It's probably because of family dysfunction, and the affair might be a symptom more than a cause.

    I feel sorry for your dad. Sounds like a very dysfunctional family to me. Mum slagging around, you lesbianisming it. I hope your dad gets out of that nightmare environment.

    "Divorce me, darling"... sounds like it's going to happen, anyway.
