Mom and dad got divorced 2 years ago after 13 years of fighting and misunderstanding each other
and they used to bring sadness to the whole family
so when they did it i felt happier than ever , but many people said to me that by the time there will be gaps in my life that i may not be able to fit becaus of this situation , but i never felt so , as if i think it's the normal situation for a family , so is it normal?

    I used pray that my Parents would get divorced and when they finally did it was the best thing for all of us, and we have never looked back. It's better 1 happy seperate parents than 2 unhappy parents that don't see eye, of course your feelings are normal and totally justified x

    Sometimes, divorce is actually a good solution.

    In my case, my folks got divorced recently after a dysfunctional marriage that lasted way too long. All they did was constantly bicker, get bored of each other, and not to mention there was lots of cheating from my Dad's side. But now that they're divorced, mom's happier than ever and I feel lots of peace at home.

    So yeah, I think it's normal to be happy.

    I bet it's quite a relief after such a long unhappy marriage. And of course, you want the best for your parents. Now they both have a chance to pursue happiness, each on their own terms.

    Everyone I know with divorced parents prefers it over the previous relationship.
    Divorce is always a result of poor compatibility from the start, if they truly loved one another they would separate when feelings faded and not remarry..
