My mum installed an online dating app on her phone...?

Hi
I just found out that my mum installed an app called ‘Zoosk’ on her phone. I went on the app to see what it was because I was very curious of the ‘love heart’ app icon. I haven’t seen much after opening the app because I don’t go through her stuff, but now I’m very suspicious to why she would install an app like this on her phone. She’s been married for over 20 years and there are no problems between her and my dad (who lives abroad). Can someone give me advice on what I should and if I should be worried??

Thanks

She's human and has sexual needs, long distance relationships don't work.

I bought her an iphone 7 for mother’s day and seeing that i wasn’t busy today, she wanted me to transfer her photos, contacts etc onto the phone. When she handed me her previous phone, I saw the app, which appeared at the bottom of the app list so I assumed it was the most recent app she installed. Then I went onto her photos because I couldn’t help being curious. In the screenshots section, there was this pic of a man who looked around 5 years older than my mum. I don’t know if he ask anything to do with the app, but it all look so suspicious.

Ask her if you really want to know.

Actually I don’t know for sure..... They call each other once week, which I don’t hear anything unusual about the conversations they have.

Exactly.
Try talking to her and give her a chance before you jump to assumptions 🌸
Don't discuss it, too awkward.

She's cheating yeah... It's best to not think about it.

Good way to promote cheating idiots.
Definitely, try talking to her and sort things out with her. If you have a heart-to-heart conversation with her, you might understand her side of the story. Don't jump the gun, for all you know it might be a misunderstanding. The sooner you do it the better.

-_- listen you. Even if OP's mum cheats, it's not like has she any right to decide how her mum lives. In no way am I saying cheating can be justified but at the same time, you cannot control what someone else does.

Lol I dont think you should be worried , to put it politely your mother is bored and urgently requires (preferably) attractive male company. I am sure your father does the same abroad, too many of us are conditioned to think of our parents as saints but I can assure you that isnt the case. Hope this helps x
