What makes family betrayal harder to move past?

You usually cannot leave the room. Weddings, funerals and holidays keep bringing everyone back together, so the ending never quite happens.

How do I handle the people who knew and said nothing?

One relationship at a time, and with boundaries you can actually hold. Our guide on what to do after a breakup includes the short scripts people use for exactly these conversations.

Is it normal to feel angrier at them than at my partner?
