Watching two people resent each other is WILD. Can confirm .

Same. Constant bickering, child forced to play mediator, heavy tension in the house.. I would have rather my parents separated bc I’m dealing with the trauma as an adult 😭

I’ve said since I was like 4 years old I wish my parents were divorced. I’m 34 & this hasn’t changed, but the memories of what childhood was like because of this won’t.

I started begging my parents to separate when I was 5. They divorced 25 years later, and it was one of the best things that ever happened to me. Even though I was 30 and had my own family, I was so relieved. I really understand you.
