Dont think this is your fault, it is not. You probably cause them to try a lot harder to hold it together and if they couldn't do it for you they know it would be better for all concerned if the marriage ends. Just remember that only the marriage is ending, not the family. They will be your mom and dad for the rest of your life and if they can find happiness down seperate paths it will better enable them to help you find your own happiness. Good luck!!

happychicka answered Sunday November 19 2006, 10:56 pm: divorce is really hard, not just on your parents but also on you. My parents got divorced when i was in the 5th grade and i always acted like everything was fine, but inside i was so depressed and i just didn't want to deal with anything. Then i realized that being in the marriage that my parents were in wasnt't making them happy, and i really thought about it i wanted my parents to be happy. Its just a fact that after your parents get divorced it is gonna be hard on you. But im sure your dad loves you and he knows that you love him to. And after my parents divorce i got even closer to my parents because i got to spend time with both of them. Things will all work out in the end. Hope I helped =) [ happychicka's advice column | Ask happychicka A Question ]

honestly going through a divorce is never easy. My parents got divorced when I was about 5 or 6 years old. To tell you the truth, I'm still not over it and im 15 now. I always felt like a part of me was missing because I never really got to know my father as well as I wanted to. I also think part of the reason I have trusting issues is because if I couldn't even rely on my own father who could I rely on. Things will change and no one said it will be easy, but you have to stay strong. Never ever blame yourself for your parent's divorce because it is not your fault at all. I know it's really tough right now. But you will get through it. It won't be tomorrow or next week but as you go on with each day, things will get a little better. You have to be there for your mother right now, imagine how she's feeling. Just be grateful for the memories you have with your father and maybe you two can still keep in touch.
If you ever need someone to talk to, don't be shy =)

goodluck
