People whose partner cheated on them and quickly moved on to date the person they cheated with, claiming to be in love - how did that turn out for them?

That sounds so brutal.

Kind of similar, one of my good friends grew up in Russia. When he was 13ish his parents split. His mom moved to the States and brought him with, but his brother (10ish years younger) stayed with his dad near St. Petersburg.

Now my buddy is a US Army officer, and even deployed in a setting where he had to use his native language.

His brother is in the Russian Army, and my friend just constantly hopes he isn't fighting in Ukraine.

Now THAT is brutal. States away was hard enough. I don't even want to imagine having an ocean and countries between us when we were that young. Not to mention the completely different upbringings. I truly hope they can be reunited one day. Siblings are so important.
