Maybe it's just the immaturity of my dad, but I often feel like *I* am my parents parent. My dad almost never talks to her on the phone or e-mail unless it's important or an emergency. I am the middle ground for communication between them when trying to figure out plans my mom may have for us. It's clear that he doesn't like her, yet my mom has moved on. So I just have a few questions for you....
How long have your parents been divorced?
Would you say they have "moved on" past the incident?
If yes..... is it because they have found new partners?
If no.... do you feel like you have to be the middle man for them?
Do they communicate regularly?
Who do you regularly live with? (or is it 50/50)
-------------
My answers:
How long have your parents been divorced? 2 years.
Would you say they have "moved on" past the incident? Mom yes, dad no.
If yes..... is it because they have found new partners? My mom has a fiance but my dad is still single.
If no.... do you feel like you have to be the middle man for them? Yes and it pisses me off
Do they communicate regularly? Not really, but my dad does a decent job at hiding his hate for my mom when he DOES talk to her
Who do you regularly live with? (or is it 50/50) I live with my dad but I see my mom usually at least once a week.
