My parents divorced when I was twelve, going on thirteen. It was a strange set of circumstances that I don't know the full story of still yet, because they get along quite perfectly now.

Mine have been apart since I was a baby, but I think the divorce officially went through when I was about three or four. I can barely remember a time when my Dad lived here at that point anyway, so it didn't make a difference to me. He started to visit again a few years later--I didn't take too well to him for long enough, since I wasn't used to seeing him around, but after a while, I just grew used to it.

Now, he's living here again temporary (apparently, anyway), even though they're still seperated.

I'm not too happy about the whole situation. I've got nothing against my Dad now, but I just don't like other people staying in our house--for a week or two maybe, fine, but he's been here for a year now, and I still keep getting told he'll be moving again soon enough. I'm really doubting it at this point.

My parents separated when I was about 12 and the next five years were ugly, before they finally completed the divorce. They still don't talk to each other :-(

My parents are still together and like fire and ice. It seems to work for them. Last year I ask my father how many years they were married, he said 48 years with your good mother. I pointed out my eldest brother had just turned 50. All he said was whoops. :oops: :lol:

My parents have never been married in the first place. I grew up with a single mom. Should I vote "never"?

I voted small child, because I was 12 when they separated, though they didn't make it official until I was 14. I had a strange indifference to it, when normally it tears families apart..

When I was 16, although their relationship had been extremely cold for many years before that.

They split up when I was 3 and got divorced when I was 7.

Yeah, ain't it?

My parents divorced around the time I started school... when I was five-ish? six-ish? Either way, it needed to happen!

Yeah, it's weird to see people whose parents are still together. :mellow:

Mine divorced when I was...five. I think that was my dad's second divorce.

I consider mine divorced. They've been "seperated" for close to 10 years now and should have been divorced long before then. I haven't spoken to my dad in like 6 years.

Mine divorced in my late teens - although they should have divorced years before. They have been happy ever since, and so have I

My parents are going close on 30 years married now.

I really hope I find something like that someday too.

My little sister married at 19 and looking at her and her husband it will probably last forever as well. Damn her and her head start! :P

Mine separated just a few years ago thankfully, great meaning I hardly need to see either anymore.

No, they never divorced, but my mom died when I was young. Now I have a stepmom and she and my dad have been married nine years.

My parents divorced when I was young (5-6 if I recall correctly) and both have since remarried and re-divorced. My mother is currently engaged, but at this stage it looks to be a long engagement.

My parents divorced uh... I don't actually know when. I don't really remember when they were together.
