...of getting divorced. You know, it really sucks. Besides the fact that it's my senior year, this was a very unexpected thing. Within the last two months, everything has fallen apart. They told me between Christmas and New Years, and they expect a court date the middle of February. Before I even have time to think, it's all going to be over. My parents never fought, never argued, and never cheated. But my mom met someone through a chat room and has "deep feelings" for him. So deep that after I graduate in May, she's moving in with him. He lives in Michigan and we live in Missouri. She says he's not the reason, mind you she's never met him, but I think otherwise. Just to let anyone who doesn't know what divorce is like for someone who thought everything was okay...it's like ripping your heart out and stomping on it over and over. If anyone wants to talk...email me or something. | |

| Hun, I totally know how your feeling. Divorce is hard. My parents go divorced four years ago. I was completly torn. I felt as though it was my fault. Just know deep down that none of this is your fault. Your parents LOVE you to death. Even though your mother has met someone new...she will always be there for you. Who knows, maybe you will even get along with this new guy. It may take awhile to warm up to him considering your mother hasn't even met him yet...just take things slow. I also know how hard court is...I remember sitting and watching the judge...all I was able to hear were words like "custody", "child support" and "money". Just be strong! Maybe this is all for the better. Both my parents are happily married in their 2nd marriage and I have been blessed with two half brothers. Although its still hard having a stepmom and stepdad around...I think it worked out for the better! Best of luck sweetie and if you need more advice or just feel like talking...email me! | |

That's sad to begin with. Most times, they wouldn't do it if it wasn't going to be right for you. You hang in there and sit tight. Your parents still you regardless. | |

For me, it was on New Years Eve. My parents started talking and decided too. My dad was willing to leave our house to my mom but was afraid about her making the payments. They were also worried about the custody of me and my younger sister. I've cried myself to sleep everynight since then. My parents haven't told me directly, but I know its coming. They're arguing as I am typing. PLEASE ME! I NEED ADVICE ON HOW TO HANDLE THIS! | |

| Sarah, you feel free to communicate with me at any point in time. Divorce is a hard and legal process. The effects are tremendous and I completely understand. My parents aren't divorced but may be in the process. Sometimes in life things don't work out and we just have to live with it. My wishes go out to you and your family! -Emily | |
