I shared my room with my dad for months until he revealed why he did so, the truth was shocking

I never really understood why my dad and I used to share a bedroom. It was an unexpected fact:

It seems that many people feel more comfortable sharing their personal information online than they do in person. Even though no one will have any basis on which to judge them, I believe they feel glad to have voiced a viewpoint they've long held.
A recent comment made by an unnamed source shocked everyone. When the young man revealed why he and his father were sleeping in the same bed, many people started crying. Here's one

"For a long time, my dad and I slept in the same room. He confided in me that he wasn't getting along with my mother, but he didn't elaborate. I don't think it's great that they're fighting, but I did enjoy having him as a roommate. We had late-night discussions, and he didn't judge me but gave me a few pieces of advice.
That's how challenging life may get so that you can prove your mettle. To which I said, "You are my best buddy." My resilience will be tested by the trials that I must endure. The resilience of your marriage will be on display if that holds.



He resumed his nightly routine of sleeping in their room after that. The reason he used my room as a bed for a whole month is only becoming clear to me now. As soon as he saw the rope in my room, he knew I was about to end my life. Because of what happened, he didn't want me to be alone.

Without passing judgment or bringing up the rope again, they made sure I was back in control of my life. Even while I know I should be grateful for my father's undying affection, I find myself feeling very moved by his sacrifices on my behalf. Please know how much I appreciate you, dad."

When the father realized that his son was suicidal, he handled the situation appropriately by not broaching the subject with him. Instead of helping him kill himself, he tried to help him heal differently. The father must care for his son because he did a terrific job.

Whatever you decide to do, do it. I'm curious as to your thoughts. It was the father who lied to his son. Think he made the correct choice there? Leave a comment,
