-- my parents are getting divorced
Pages (4): « 1 2 [3] 4 »

Psychologically it's easier children when they're much younger. That being said, sorry to hear about it dude. My parents hit a rough patch a few years ago and I thought it was going to happen, but it didn't. And even though it didn't actually happen, at the time it kind of fucked me up. Good luck man.

Will, yeah its tough but it will only make you stronger in the long run.

btw if your moms a cougar & needs someone to talk to, you know im still in Addison.

My parents split up when I was 8 or 9.

I cried for an hour, then The Simpsons came on and I was fine... I don't know, it wasn't a nasty divorce, my mom just fell out of love with my dad. He was a workaholic and the only time they ever communicated was when they were drinking... They never hit each other but there was some intense shouting matches, my mom could deal just as much as he could, probably more.

My brother was totally wacked out from it, being 6 or 7 at the time. He got messed bad and had issues for a number of years.

I dont know, its not that bad. I still see my dad all the time, he lives a few blocks away and he and my mom are on good terms.

Best part about being a little child of divorce is parents competing for your love. I didn't really care eitherway so I saw it as way to get free shit.

8 months here. It's so common that when people tell me about it I'm like " yeah, it happens. Better for them to be apart and happy than together and wasting time".

i honestly wish my parents would divorce already lol. but i probably have more oedipal issues than hamlet

I sometimes question if my mom would be able to be happy in their marriage. There wasn't any reconciling it at the point where they got divorced but if both parties had tried a lot harder to work at it when they could have maybe fixed things I think both would be happier now.

My mom wouldn't have to worry about money like she does now and could have pursued her education and career probably a lot easier.

I don't know I guess its their choice, but I have this attitude when my mom bitches about bills and her debt and retirement. I tell her she chose this path so she shouldn't complain so much.

I don't think its resentment at her divorcing my dad as much as it is having to hear about it.

You'd do your mom?

My parents got divorced when i was in the 4th grade. I still remember when my mom took me aside and told me. It feels like it was yesterday. It's fucked with me ever since.

Oh yeah since then my moms been married and divorced again.

My pops just got married last August, she's nice and now i have a hot step sister.

Yeah, I don't think it's resentment. What happened , happened, so shut the fuck up and deal with it is more like it. neither party has the right to dwell and dwell on stuff like that.

Every case is different for sure. If your 'rents split when you were a baby then it was something you grew up with and it's just everyday life. If they split when you're in your mid 20's...you've lived enough years with them together, happy or not, to know what it was all about. If you were young but old enough to know what's going on it might be tough but it's def something you just deal with and move on. It really isn't the end of the world and divorce doesn't have to be messy if both people are mature enough to handle actions. It's not rocket science, it's divorce.

I suppose it does make it a lot easier if one parent just don't give a shit about the child or the other parent to begin with.

My mom got married in 2005 and she's been the happiest she's been ever. So it works out.

Yea, not that it fucks with me but it still seems like yesterday.

I was in 4th grade too, and we had just had spaghetti and I was in the basement watch a movie on TV, it was Explorers and there is one kid in there that has a bad home life and I remember thinking "man I'm glad my parents aren't like that"

Then my dad called me up and sat me down at the dinner table with my brother and mom and just bluntly said to us "Your mother and I are getting a divorce"

Then my mom yelled at him for not being tact about it.

My parents are heading that way too...

Maybe this is gay, but all these stories of divorce are making me weak on my knees..... or maybe im drunk


FUCK, i hated that shit.. when my peeps got divorced.

Dunno why, but that made me lol so hard. Sorry.

Damn, that sucks Will. I'm lucky that my parents have been together for 24 years and still in love they fight sometimes but they always get over it. I can understand that all marriages won't work out but divorce is so common now-a-days

i'm still kind of upset about it. i guess not the fact that they split....although that DOES hurt; but i'm more upset about my dad just being an ass about this whole thing...not really wanting to pay for support; not paying bills. i mean, for fucks sake, my mom can't work because she's in chronic pain.

through the divorce they had to do a "discovery" of which my mom found out a LOT about my dad and his wheelings and deelings that he keeps lying about. just made me lose a lot of respect for him i guess.

and now he's getting married to this chick; i dunno. just kinda f'd up i guess.

my brother is getting remarried this october; after a two year marriage failed. his wife left him for some other dude; and now he's gone on the rebound and found some other chick and they've "rekindled" their old love from like 15 years ago, and i'm just like, "WTF is wrong w/ my family?" my bro's got a 9 year old kid; and she's all screwed up because of this, plus their marriage wasn't really anything fantastic, either. i'm wondering what she's going to be like as a teenager

My parents splitting was the best thing that could've happened, besides them winning the lotto first.

Now birthday presents don't come from mum & dad, they come from mum and dad. I get on better with my dad talking to him on the phone every couple of weeks and seeing him every few months. It's a win-win situation

I didn't read any new replies, or any nou ones

My parents got a divorce uh like 7 years ago and it really was for the best. The atmosphere at home was baaaad, felt like you were walking on egg shells. Afterwards I got along better with my dad, he got kinder and friendlier. Mom got a lot happier too. Both have new companjons by now.

How it has affected me? Well I knew for a very long time it was gonna happen. I got sad at first and I no longer believe that people can stay together for a lifetime (I was the only kid among my friends with non-divorced parents).

Ouch Will, that sucks. Looks like you didn't know before that your dad left her for another woman, huh? When did you find out?

My parents separated about a year and a half ago cause of my dads drinking problem. He moved back to Poland and it was when he got there that he realized what he had done. They had always been madly in love (kissing and hugging and him buying her flowers etc) but his drinking was the issue. SO - he got sober. Been sober for a year now. They started going on "dates" like 8 months ago or so, and he just moved back in this month and neither one of them could be happier
