Sociopath Community

I think you are right. When my parents divorced I dont think I really even realized it at the time Or maybe I did, who knows. It was a long time ago.

 Yeah, I don't understand it.  When my parents got divorced, it was great.  Cut down on tension in the house, I could go visit one when the other pissed me off, and I started getting twice as many christmas presents. : P

My therapists just could not let it go, though.  Apparently every problem that I ever had, including the ones I had well before they split up, were all a result of the divorce.  Oh how traumatized I must be. : P

You must be in denial, having divorced yourself from drama you otherwise couldn't handle, telling yourself it's great to cope!

EVERYONE cares about when their parents get divorced! No exceptions!

And you must be in denial if you see the world in such black and white terms.

They weren't in love.  Probably never had been.  It wasn't an ugly or drawn out divorce, though.  I get along very well with my step mother.  And I was already well into my teens by the time they got divorced.  Besides, I've always been able to see either one of them whenever I like.There's nothing to be upset about.  The only unfortunate part of their split was my mothers resulting mid-life crisis, which ended after a couple years.  But I never cared much for her, and she never cared much for me.  Unpleasant, but nothing unmanageable.

I rarely use exclamation points to be serious.

I mean come on, escaping an abusive parent/spouse could be something the entire family is grateful for, and that's just one fairly common example. Even parents portraying the role of role model can be substituted in a variety of ways.

Oh good.  I had a good first impression of you, and I thought for a moment there, that I'd been wrong. ^_^
