    Ah awec I'm sorry to hear that. Like you said, it is surreal and it'll take some getting used to, but if both your parents end up happier as a result then that can only be a good thing.

    Sorry to hear that mate. Must be a tough thing to be going through something like that but some good mates always help in situations like that, just someone to talk to really helps. :(

    Sorry to hear that Awec. Like Suave said though if both your parents end up happier at the end of the day then maybe the split is for the best. It's a tough situation to be in, but separated and happy is better than together and unhappy.

    Hope you're coping alright.

    Sorry to hear Awec, all you can do is be there for both of them and remember to talk to people about your own thoughts as well.

    I'll take a more unique approach to your current situation awec, you missed out on a few pros and cons.
    (warning, light hearted views on growing up with separated parents since back in the 90's below!)

    Pro- Double the presents on birthdays/Christmas:D
    Con- Sometimes you end up having to eat two dinners at Christmas, and that's a lot of turkey and stuffing, take it from me, pace yourself.:(
    Pro- If they live in separate houses, there's a good chance at some stage one of them will be away for the weekend, in which case you tell the other parent your "staying at dad's house"..go to his while he's away and have a social gathering:pac:
    Con- Get the other siblings in on the plan, if they rat you out, you don't have "good cop, bad cop" you have "bad cop, bad cop" and that's a lot of cop.:eek:

    P.S. I like how both of you typod culchie. Or is cluchie the culchie way of spelling it? :P
    I am just wrecked and can't spell, it's clearly culchie :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,219 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Sorry to hear the news awec.

    And nothing wrong with being a culchie. I've gotten called that by Dubs before. Guessing just jealousy of us knowing of places that exist outside the pale. :D

    Came home this evening from work to find a bird(sadly of the feathered variety) in my kitchen. Don't know how it got in. Need to get back to those Sherlock Holmes books to give me ideas of how to solve this locked house mystery. :)
