i hated both my parents for the longest time after they divorced. its only now that im older that i realize the really bad stuff happened when they were married and that getting a divorce was the best thing they could have done for me and my siblings.
thats not to say the divorce didnt hurt. it did, especially when my mother moved to colorado and my father moved to ohio and i was forced to choose. when i met casey i made for damn sure i wanted to be with her forever before we even began dating. i dont want to put my children through any of it, pre- or post-divorce.
i think the secret to a long-lasting marriage is to behave like newlyweds from the day you marry to the day you die.
