I dont think it's wrong. My mom divorced my step-dad and my brother and I still have a relationship with him... I guess maybe you should wait until the divorce is finalized so your mom doesnt feel betrayed... if the divorce wasnt too devastating she might understand... i suggest you talk to her about how you feel, so she understands your position... keep in mind that a divorce can be one of the most difficult situations a person can go though, so give your mom some support...

well just because your mother and your step father are getting a divorce does not mean that you can not talk to him on your own personal time. There is nothing wrong with that.....

Just as a mother should never keep a child from having a relationship with his biological father, she should not keep him from having one with a close step-father either.
If it really seems to bother her, I would suggest just keeping the details about your relationship with him to yourself. In other words, don't update her on the goings-on in his life because she probably won't want to hear about it. At the same time, respect her privacy by refraining from discussing your mom's personal life with him.
And don't ever let them make a messenger out of you. If they have something to say to one another, tell them that you feel you should stay out of that part of their business, and they can contact each other directly if they need to.

No there is absolutely nothing wrong with you continuing to have a relationship with your step-father.Just because your mom & your step-father don't get along and can't be together that is not your fault and you have every right to have a relationship with him.

Of course not. He was like a father to you. And you would talk to both parents, even if they got a divorce, right?

No. If you were close before, then keep him as a friend. If it is not a bitter situation between him and your Mom, shemay understand. Just don't bring stories to one about what the other is doing.

Keep the friendship going and keep talking with him... The divorce is your Mom and Stepdads personal problem, not yours...

no, he has been part of you life it is not wrong to keep talking to him because the reason him and your mom are splitting up has nothing to do with you so your mom should be able to accept the fact that you still want to keep in touch with him.

I have 3 children that my husband now has raised for 15 years and they have a great relationship with him and I would be wrong in asking my children not to continue to talk to him if we were to split up. You have built a relationship that your mom brought to you and it would be wrong for her to ask you not to maintain that.
