ok i am sorry to hear that. my parents split up. too and it was also hard for me to cope with my dad dating other girls.
but you have to realize that it is no good if they are not happy.
and though it may not seem like the right thing at the time.
trust me it is alot better knowing that your parents are happy and enjoying life

I think i is insensitive for the parents to ANNOUNCE their intentions (wants/needs/and desires for other people) with their children. You don't need that right now. He can date who he wants and when he wants but in my opinion he should keep these things to himself until the divorce (IF there is gonna be one) is final and he has had a few dates with the object of his affections (to see if they even get along well together) before he drops THAT bomb on the children. MAN, that got me all riled up!!

The only person you have control over is yourself. Whatever the reasons for your parents seperation you have no control over their actions or decisions.
I would recommend you stay out of it, don't take sides, and let them both know you love them.

i think you need to realize your parents are separated but it has nothing to do with you ... they are growing apart and that they need to figure out what they want ... what you need to do unfortunately is not be selfish and be supportive of them during this tough time ...
no matter how old you are .. divorce is hard and it will tear up everything but try really hard to there for both of them.

ask your dad to slow down and get into some marriage counseling... let him know you are concerned he's moving too quickly and that you'd like for your parents to try and work on their marriage before calling it quits.... sorry, you are dealing with this!

Tell him that it hurts you and you think it's too soon to put HIS family through that.
