Anybody else going through or have gone through this? Would you like to share?

I grew up in a family who was lacking in faith, I had to overcome such a great deal, I am grateful for the man I've become of it. I am always here for advice, and just somebody to talk with if you are going through this, I know it hurts. With Love

I trust you guys enough already.

My parents are actually going through this as I type. Tomorrow my mother is staying at her mom's.

It's bummed me out, and I know it's wrong, but I think its best at the moment simply because I can't stand their fighting.

Star-Lord, I am sorry to hear that. Its normal to be bummed out about it, its not wrong at all.

My mom left my dad when I was 9 for a range of different reasons that I will never fully understand.

Over the last few days its been nice chatting with you and getting to know you, and it seems you have a good head on your shoulders. If you ever wanna / need to talk about anything don't hesitate to pm me.

Press into God more and more. In Him is comfort and rest.

I am not only a child of divorce,but I am also divorced myself. Also, although I could not do anything about me parents divorce, I am the one to blame in my own divorce.

Yea, like many I know, my parents split. It was the worst, but I always understood that love is complex, so I handled it okay. Good news is our family only got bigger, 'cause they both remarried and had more kids -- and they exchanged the initial bitterness for friendship.

Yeah my parents divorced when I was about 11, not sure how much it affected me then but it's starting to show now, almost 20 years later. Various things, I can't really go into at the moment.

So for me i'd say, the effects of divorce arn't always immeadiate, they are long lasting and can show years down the track and i guess the phrase, what you sow is what you reap rings true on this one.

Best thing we can do is breathe, you learn to be humble from this. The distancing is hard, as it takes a toll on your heart, just breathe meekness.

One is never to blame its a soothing process in order to understand how God has guided you through this. We must look out the outlook on life.

Love is always the simplest path, it's the acknowledgement of God living within us, that is our destination.

Yes, the longing process is the most difficult to go through, we come out okay, we mustn't ever give up our guidance in the arms of the Lord.

We go through a lot of trials. As children of Divorce. Some rises of Happiness, some downpours of confusion, We Cope.

that's how we learn to become that much MORE of a Blessing.

Divorce is a Hard word in it's own. We Have excepted that as it is.

Pinpointing all of the rises and the "Focal Points" (Happiness) is the path that will get you through all of the minimal downpours. It is a structured strength that we come to develop, and I assure you God is always there guiding us all the way.
