I am 17, and my parents divorced about half a year ago. When the divorce happened, I wasn't sad. I was just happy my dad wasn't living with us anymore.
6 months later, I still don't miss having him here. IIN?
If your mother is happier and there's a lot less tension in the house, it's entirely understandable if you feel happier.
You happened to be born to the people who are your parents. That doesn't mean you're obliged to like them or their behavior, and you shouldn't feel guilty if you're happier now that your father is no longer part of your daily life.
It's possible you don't fully understand everything that led to the divorce. If you think that, regardless of what happened, he's a fundamentally a decent human being, maybe as you get older you'll be able to create a new sort of relationship with him that's more adult to adult, rather than kid to parent.
Honey,It is absolutely normal to miss him if he was an asshole. I'm also like you. My mother and father divorced when I was 13 because he punched my mom and he was like a total jerk. He just stayed home all day,didn't go outside whatsoever,he didn't go shopping,nothing. My mother was also really stressed out because of him. When they divorced I was really happy. Your feelings are very normal.
It depends on how your relationship was with him, if it wasn’t very good I would say it’s normal.
he asked me just the other day if it was normal he could not stand you and he doesn't miss you at all , so yea i guess thats kind of normal.
