Sarah* was having dinner with her father when she caught sight of his cellphone lock screen. A glowing photo of a young blonde woman smiled back at her. For a split second, Sarah, then 28, thought it was a photo of herself. It wasn’t. It was her 57-year-old father’s new girlfriend — the 27-year-old he left her mother for.
And to add insult to injury, Sarah knew the woman — they were at elementary school together, just one year apart.
