My Friend Parents divorced after 27 years of marriage, how can that be possible? They have 5 Children

and financially successful. His Dad got a young girl pregnant and his Mom will not take that and she asked for a divorce.

Is that a good enough reason for his mom to ask for a divorce after 27 years of marriage. Both in their 50's.


What's your opinion on that?

Trust me when i say when parents Divorce is not always a bad thing. I been through 1 with my mother. She is more happier then when she was with my step dad.

You will adjust to it pretty soon and be happy.

Sometimes "Divore" is the best solution.

will u rather your parents Stay together and argue all the time or Divorce and Be Happy?

I feel sadness for your friend's parents. Divorce is never an easy thing to do.

However, let us consider the reality of the situation. Your friend's mother has been grievously hurt. She feels humiliated. And, justifiably so. She clearly feels that the trust on which her marriage was based has been violated (which it has) and she feels that she cannot re-establish that trust.

Your friend's father is clearly unhappy being married to his wife, given that he was so cavalier as to carelessly sleep around on her (and having unprotected sex outside the marriage shows his wanton disregard for her well-being).

There are worse things than divorce. One example would be being in a loveless, trustless marriage.

Let's wish them well as they start their lives anew.

(Incidentally, I, personally know of a man who divorced his wife of 50 years. Both are happier, now. And, isn't that really all that matters?)
