My parents divorce happened slowly. There were many arguments, fights and so on. What I do remember themost is the irrational feeling of guilt that it was my fault. Well, Dad didn't help much when after one of his feuds with Mom he asked me "see what you've done?" So there. I'm 21 now, nearing on 22. It's been over ten years since they finally sepaprated, though they kept fighting.
My Dad died three years ago. My Mom's doing well and has pursued sever relationships with other men. As for me, I've been battling insecurity and shyness that crippled any social abilities during my high school. For example, I stopped washing myself at a certain point, purely because I felt so powerless towards other people. Hell if I know why, but I did. I became badly overweight. All of this eased when I entered university and started studying sociology. I've lost all my extra weight, battled shyness and only now, after four years of intensive internal renovation I'm starting to be able to live in the society. I'm still incredibly short-tempered though, and very suspicious when it comes to other people's intentions. The reason for all this? Parent's divorce.
