Has anyone had parents who split up when you were an adult? My parents have been together 30 years and are now going through a nasty separation. I don’t know how to help and especially don’t know how to deal with my dad who is being pretty horrible to my mom.

Yeah my parents divorced last year after almost 30 years. Should have done it sooner honestly but probably didn’t because of me. They fought my whole childhood so saw it coming and was happy when it happened

I'd stay tf away and let them deal with their stuff. They are adults, and it's their relationship/marriage/divorce.

Yes the day after I got engaged when I was 25. They had been married 25 years. Very traumatic because it’s all you have known and then parents fighting is rough anyway.

From 22-27 I dated a guy who worked all the time with the hope we would get married. Lots of time spent alone since he was never around on trips and so called vacations. Recently, I broke up with him and just am really feeling like I wasted my twenties. I saw two girls walking down the street yesterday with pink balloons that spelled “23”... what I would give to have not wasted my time with this guy. Has anyone ever gone through this?

How do you decide to forgive a SO for lying to you? For a lie of omission. Currently I said that I don’t forgive them but I don’t want to break up and am willing to stay together to see if there’s improvement but I don’t know if that’s fair to them. Basically they introduced me to a friend in friend group at the end of 2019 and never told me they dated... I had my suspicions but kept it to myself. Then I saw an old friend who revealed that they dated 2 years ago and when I asked the SO...

However he is not really interested in world affairs, does not follow the news closely, does not have a strong grasp
