anima Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 My parents are married, and I imagine they will be until one or the other dies. They've been married something like 30 years now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ichigogaaru Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 There's no option for separated... My mom is Catholic so they never divorced. They still see each other a lot; live in the same town. He still comes and stays at our house, especially now that I'm away at college. (My mom doesn't like being alone.)

Islander9 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 There's also no option for people whose parent/s have died; who were adopted or fostered, or brought up in communal circumstances (whanau groups for instance.) The voting in this census will be distinctly skewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remirath Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 My parents have been divorced for ten years, now. They've both remarried and my mother has continued to have a crap-load of kids. I live with my father and step-mother who piss me off quite frequently with their blatant and repulsive sexual-esque actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fayetje Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 My parents separated (still legally married for financial reasons, but I chose the second option anyway) two years ago after 22 years of marriage that wasn't that great to begin with.

gloeblio Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Well, mine weren't married in the first place, but they're still living together. So I guess yes, they are as good as married. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spinneret Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 My parents cohabitated for five years, and then married for financial reasons. They celebrated their 25th this year. It was rough for a while, and my dad is fairly depressed these days, but they do love each other in their weird way and I can't see them separating.

JokeyFairbobbin Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 My parents divorced when I was 10-ish (like Razust say, those can take forever so no exact date), though my father has since remarried. Mostly all that has meant is a few financial issues, since my father spent most of his time out of town on business, so his only presence in my life has been money-related. I have a relative who has divorced and remarried at least 4 times so that her initials are starting to look like the alphabet- is there an option for that? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romy Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 My parents have been married for about 33 years. I'm 31 so they weren't together long before they had me. They never really argue and are so close they don't let anyone else in, including me really. I'm living with them now out of nessecity but moving out today. They can't wait to get rid of me and I can't wait to get out of here. I love them and we have a good relationship kind of but they are very weird how they push me out. My dad gets jealous if I take my Mom's attention off him. :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexlar Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Ehh my family's relations are kinda weird. My parents are still together, 18 years married, but my dad lives in Virgina and my mom who i live with, lives in Florida. There not separating or anything, my dad just works there. They both cheat on each other, though I don't know if they have an open relationship or not...I haven't really spent much time with either of them, since when I was younger my dad was always oversees since he's in the navy and my mom is a super-workaholic.

Muddles Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 My parents split up permanently when I was really little, but technically they're still married. Don't get me wrong, pigs will fly before they get back together. They just never got around to getting the actual divorce, too much bother, and money. :P They had an arranged marriage so never actually liked each other in the first place. Go figure. :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntiBubble Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Mine have been married for 35ish years... I'm not sure how long exactly and neither are they :roll:, mind you they can never remember if they got married on October the 7th or 11th :lol: Quite ironic seeing as my mum was the good little 21 year old Catholic girl who married the thoroughly disreputable 26 year old divorcee with two kids that later became my dad, and they were given "six months tops" :lol: Anyway, they have a very honest relationship, which has extended to my relationship with them - we're very honest with each and always have been. I've convinced that's why they're still together - they're both very very strong personalities, and if things were left to fester, they'd do well to last a week. Always had a really good relationship with them though, and seeing as I've grown into a strong personality as well, there are times when I kinda think "this shouldn't work", but we get along ok, although me and my mum get on better the more time I spend away from home :lol: Tis kinda sad now though, cuz they're both getting older, but my dad is in particular (61 now) and it hurts to know they're not going to be around forever :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2tabbymom Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 My parents had their 50th anniversary in November. They argue a lot and drive me crazy with their bickering, but they still love each other. They violated all of the rules-got married young (mom was 17 and still in high school), had 4 kids in the next 6 years, and moved frequently (dad was career Air Force), but stuck it out.

Hpets Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 My parents are quite happily married. So are just about all of my relatives... that's why it's so hard to tell them that I don't think I'll be getting married (unless I find someone who doesn't mind not having sex, or someone who I miraculously feel sexual attraction toward).

Pixies Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 My parents had a happy twenty year marriage until they had an extremely explosive divorce ten years ago. My mom cheated on my dad, who in turn cheated on my mom. They both went on to marry the person they'd cheated with and have been married (happily in my mom's case, less than happily in my dad's case) ever since.
