I have a feeling my dad's had a girlfriend for quite some time. He and my mother have not been in love or even really "in like" with each other for years. They don't sleep together unless they have to, there's constant verbal sniping on Dad's part, and Mom has let herself go because she's so depressed but won't get treatment. Dad won't get a divorce because he won't pay Mom alimony. If Dad's got a chippie somewhere, I'm all for it. He'd have my blessing and my silence.
