I know exactly how you feel my parents seperated when I was 7 and I hated it and didn't understand completely but now my dad has remarried and has had two more kids and I am an only child and I live with my mum I am now 14 and accept that I can't be selfish and not want them to be happy so you have to think about how happy they are seperated and they will always love you no matter what so If you really want them to be happy and understand how you feel about everything talk to them about, it helps a lot trust me
Eventually you will see how much better off they are seperated and even if you don't like who they are with tell them because no matter what they care more about you than a partner
hope this helps xx

Yes, 100% completely normal. I used to feel the same way about my mom's boyfriends when she and my dad got divorced. Eventually, I guess I just grew out of it. The way I see it, if you don't bother the new guy/girl, they don't bother you, and your parent is happy, there's not really an issue. Basically, I'm not saying to ignore them, but you can't really do anything about it if your mom/dad truely cares about them and you want them to be happy. I'm sorry and I know it's tough, but just move on and everything will be a lot easier :) Hope I helped!

It is totally normal for you to not like anybody that your parents date. I know exactly where you're coming from. It's really hard to see your parents with other people. Even though I know it's hard just try to think about the happiness of your parents. They aren't together anymore because they must have been having some kind of troubles in their relationship. They felt like they would be happier with other people. Just try to be positive and look for the good qualities in the people that your parents are seeing. Even if you don't learn to like them, atleast try to be respectful or nice to them. Do it for your parents, I'm sure it's not easy for them eaither. I'm sorry about your situation, good luck.
