My parents never divorced, they were together 40 years until my mom died. My father has never remarried or even dated. I'm still married, almost 25 years now. I'm heartbroken for all of you children of divorce. I can't even imagine. Take your time. Marry a good person. Work through the hard times. Never expect more of your partner than you do of yourself. It's ok to disagree just be respectful about it. Marriage is not temporary. I hope you all find your forever person ❤
I was 6. Don't remember anything about it. I am turning 23 this year. My relationship with my father is reaching a breaking point. I have hardly seen him this year, I don't think I have called him more than once or twice as well. And I don't care, I don't miss him. I hope no one understands what it's like to look your own father in the eyes when he says "I love you," and think to yourself "Bullshit." When I say "I love you," to him, it is because I have to not because I want to. I just don't want to deal with him anymore.
My Mom and Dad never divorced, My wife and I have been married 50 years of a 57 year relathionship, celebrating our 50 year anniversary we heard from people who said, Wow that never happens these days and even Uggghhh That's queer. No Regrets.
Yall are nuts 🥜, Stay away from therapists they destroy you and your relationship. Enjoy the Wall. Also ask yourselves what did you do in the relationship to cause the divorce.
My divorce in 2018 was the first time I had ever made an adult decision by myself without other people's input. There was a lot of push-back from him, my parents, religious people.... I was resolute in my decision because I was being horrifically abused in every way, all the while he was telling me "I love you" in words only. I never felt safe. I was sleeping next to a man I was terrified of due to his constant rage. Sleeping for me was sleeping despite my heart racing, breathing very shallow, my adrenals being ON just about 24/7. To sleep next to a monster is one of the WORST things you can do to yourself. No sex for the last 5 years of our marriage. I wanted to BE with someone (intimately) but I did NOT want to be with _him._ He had disgusting and twisted proclivities and I could not force myself to participate anymore. I had skin-hunger, I was so alone....and to be ALONE in a marriage?? It's the loneliest thing I've ever experienced. 😢 Every day I wake up I high-five myself for making such an important decision for ME ❤❤❤
When you see a 1500 pound bull coming your way , do something don't just stand there , absolutely no survival skills, he had a couple seconds to react, did he think it was part of the show?
