My parents told me and my brother and sister that they're going to be divorced soon. I cried for the first time in years. Anyone ever dealt with divorce before? I need some advice on how to keep my life and relationship with both of them together.
whoa.. man sorry to hear :( mine got divorced when I was 10 and I really wish I had someone to talk with or that I was older so I could get to only stay with my mom -_-

So yeah, talk to people. do it.

I'm sorry that you are experiencing a tragic event such as that. I don't have any experience with divorce, but if you ever need someone to talk to, shoot me a msg.
 
Not really anything in particular. Just the fact that I've been so busy doing other things in my life that I've neglected using these forums consistently since December. I think I've missed a lot...

My parents are divorced, but I'll be honest, it wasn't much of a change for me. They argued all the time and I only saw my dad for a couple hours a week, and that's still the way it is. Still, if you ever wanna talk about it go ahead and PM me.

Yeah, that's tough... I wish I could give some advice here, but my parents got divorced when I was really young and they're still good friends ever since then... I guess just hope that they can at least be friends after this. :)

Thanks for the kind words guys. It was just so sudden. I think they're going to still keep in contact; they don't hate each other, but they don't feel the same way they used to about each other. My problem is that I'm used to just absorbing all of my problems, and ignoring them until they become irrelevant or disappear. I can't do that this time. Thanks again, guys, and I'll keep you all in mind, if I ever need to let it all out.
 
im getting an 8 week old Chihuahua tomorrow and im staying with my grandparents however my dad is forcing me back home and he has no idea im getting the pup, so im nervous as to what he'll say once he see's I got a pup, that is if im forced to go back home.
 
I'm currently holding a villager for someone and they've been in boxes for about 4 days because I underestimated when they were going to be in boxes, but every time the person who wants said villager had room, they filled it up, again and again. Then, I start seeing posts around the forum by them "looking for (villager I promised they could have, who I've been holding in boxes forever waiting for them)".
Update: They adopted the villager from another user yesterday and didn't bother to tell me even though I've had the villager reserved for them.

i've never experienced divorce, but my parents have been split up since i was 2. i live with my mum and visit my dad whenever, but because my dad isn't very good at being a father or showing any emotion, we don't ever connect or talk much when we see each other, and i guess our relationship is pretty awful (thats probably because i hate him but i wont go into my issues). as long as both your parents love you and want the best for you, they will work it out themselves and make sure you and your siblings' lives are as good as they can be. don't feel like you have to keep the relationship together yourself, obviously you want to spend time with them, but the only advice i can give is to not feel like you have to be the one who keeps it all together.

Sorry to hear about your parents divorce. As you say, this is pretty much a "in your face" problem and it won't go away until you learn to deal with it. Be grateful for small but important things, like your parents not actually hating eachother. Right now that is maybe to much to ask, but take it from someone who is a product of a marriage that has never been one and its still going on; sometimes a divorce can actually be a good thing. Atleast they give you the learning opportunity that you can make choices and even though love might not be forever, there is room for change. As someone who has no clue how true love works or what it looks like, I can tell you that its a cruel thing to inherit from your parents.

Talking about it is always a good idea and I wish you the best of luck dealing with this. Just remember something you probably and hopefully already know; This says nothing about how much they love you.
 
Ever did something but you didn't intend to do it? Were you blamed for it? Why does it feel so horrible when you didn't mean it .-.

I know that all too well.

I always feel like I mess up and hurt people. One person in particular.
 
I am so nervous about getting my university results. I didn't have the best semester mostly due to sickness but after a huge push right before the exams I think I passed everything. But honestly I feel sick with nerves at this time every single semester, even if I know I did well and end up with straight distinctions.

Results are due tomorrow but could also come out today. Basically they could come at any time over the next 30 hours or so. Each subject's grade comes out individually and almost every semester my German results come out first even though I already know I passed and the subject I am most worried about always comes out last.
 
My iPhone 5s got stolen ;-; And if I cried I would seem pathetic but I'm too poor to get a new phone, my mom is being a b**** about it, and I can't go anywhere on my own without my phone, plus my mom was too f***ing cheap to get insurance on it and I it had a 2 year contract on it. I'm only a few months in. I'm really sad and just wanna cry about it...
 
I've got this massive headache that I've had for about a month. I was prescribed Floricet that actually fixed it for about a week, but now that the prescription's run out I'm back at rock bottom with a pounding headache. Uninsured issues.
 
...And I passed accounting!!!! My nerves aren't nearly as bad now.

Hope everyone else's problems get resolved soon as well! :)
