No prob. It's a part of my life I don't vocally share, and all of a sudden I felt a need to let people know that if the issue can be worked out, to try to work it out for the better of their kid (s).
That happened to us with one of my step-sisters and let me tell other people reading this, don't EVER. FUCKING. CONSIDER THAT. It worried us to hell!!!
If two people were selfish enough to divorce, then I have the right to run away from home because all of the attention will be given to the step-siblings and both of your biological parents would end up resenting you for existing and being a by-product of a failed marriage.
At least when you run away, you learn how to be independent.
That's not true. I am very loved by both my parents! Thanks for suggesting my parents don't love me. And by running away, you don't learn to be independent. You learn to be selfish and self-absorbed and only pay attention to what you need. Besides, a 10-14 y/o can't work a job, they can't apply for a loan, they can't drive, they can't cook, they can't even build a make-shift shelter. How is that "independent"? That's just running out into woods to basically die unless you go back.
You mentioned that it took you 10 years to get over your situation and you are not 100% over it. At least with running away, I wouldn't care what happens to my parents and their children that they created with new partners.
I'm not over it because I lost a lot of time. And really, it only took, maybe, 6 or 7 to get over the overall sadness of it, because I just stopped caring because my situation wasn't gonna change. To get over the finer, more important stuff took longer, though, yes.

sorry to hear that. at least you took positive out of it
Yeah, it's not like I had much other choice. It was either let it bum me down and rule my life or look at the positives and do my best to get over it.
I think it must be traumatic to see a failing relationship and not be able to control it
It didn't affect me at all and I'm drunk.
thank you for sharing

Interesting take
If it was me, i would just run away from home.

Who said I would run to the woods? I would live in a homeless shelter, break into people's homes for food, or kill wild animals to eat.
You don't need money to survive. Only the willpower and the refusal to die allows you to survive.
You'd rather become a homeless, lowly thief than endure what I did? Well goddamn I must be tougher than I thought haha
