My mother's 3rd divorice
So my mom is getting a divorce from my step dad and the thing is that this is her 3rd divorce!
A part of me is happy because I can't stand my step dad but then again, it's just really embarrassing to know that my mother has been married 3 times and they have all failed.
I just don't know how I'm going to be able to handle it when she gets married a 4th time. And I know she will because I know her. It's coming down to people thinking she's a gold digger and I just don't know what to think anymore. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

Ok, you really have nothing to worry about at all. Your mum just hasn't met the right person for her at the moment.
I can actually relate to you, my step mum is a huge golddigger!!! She met my dad, 4 weeks later got pregnant, moved into his big house and he brouht her a brand new mercedes.... now that is a golddigger!!!
Do not worry about your mum and especially do not worry about what other people think about the situation... it has nothing to do with nayone apart from ou, your mum and your step dad!!!
Hope this has helped!!!

It might be embarassing but she's your mom, and she's the only mom you've got, and divorce is a really tough thing to go through. My advice would be to spend lots of time with her and try to get her to talk about it.
Also, and this'll sound horrible but it's true, you need to be trying to absorb all the lessons you can from your mother's failed relationships so you don't repeat them yourself. A lot of kids grow up and repeat their parent's mistakes... if their mother picked abusive guys, they'll pick abusive guys. if she picked bad fathers they'll pick bad fathers. It sounds obvious to avoid, but if it's the only thing you've known as being family, it's the path you'll take unless you really watch out and try to figure out how to tell which guys are right and wrong before you marry them.

Guess what!
My dad has been married 4 times as well. Basically, you get used to it. They can't stand to be alone. Try talking to her about it, though. Usually they won't marry 5 times unless they are crazy.
My advice: live with your dad. Seriously. If you have to constantly adjust to new men living in your house, then just live with your dad. If he has problems or is dead or something, then there's nothing that you can do. =[
Good luck!
