it’s almost midnight rn and i can’t sleep. so looks like im going to be ranting. C if you read this, warning on all of it pretty much.
my parents hurt me and they don’t even know it. for years all they have been doing is arguing and i don’t understand why they are still together. it’s sad to know that i wouldn’t be sad if they split. truth be told i would be relieved. today it was pretty bad, just constantly going back and forth. and i don’t really know what it is but my ears are actually sensitive and when i constantly hear yelling, it hurts. my dad is always on my moms case about not doing anything and then my mom is always on my dad about how he needs to do better. and it’s always the others fault, never theirs. i would never want a relationship like this. why put up with all the disagreements and constant arguments for years? my dad has left multiple times and he just comes back a week later no matter how many times my mom says he won’t. today she even asked what i would do if i was in her situation and she also was asking for advice from me. her 16 year old daughter. she says it’s because im mature for my age but that’s b*******. she just doesn’t know what to do. my brother who is 6, is growing up constantly hearing this and i feel so bad for him. so now im up at almost midnight because i just feel like crying because of how fucked up everything is.

Hey we’re the same age! My parents did the exact same thing, but they got divorced when I was about 11 years old. It’s really hard listening to parents argue, I don’t liek seeing my parents hurt each other. The best thing you could do is be honest. Tell them it hurts you that they’re hurting each other. Say you wouldn’t mind them getting a divorce if it makes them happy again. Sometimes it’s the best thing that can happen to people. It was hard for me to get over the fact that my parents divorced, but once it happened I realized how much better my mom felt and how much better me and my sis felt too.
Honestly the next time she asks for advice say “Divorce him”
Ok, first thing you need to do is look out for your brother he’s going to need someone to look up to even if it’s just you. As far as your parents goes sadly most relationships today are like that. There are a few who can live happily. For example look at the confessions on this site a lot of them have relationship problems. As for everything else, you need to be strong not only for yourself but for your brother as well. At the end of the day you can’t fix what your parents are going through, that’s something they need to workout themselves. M, I know it’s not easy and I wish I can wipe those tears away. Just understand that one day it will get easier and hopefully you can enjoy life when that time comes.
Also you could take the other two advice above as well.
thank you. i feel like your always making me feel better or something and i don’t help you at all. im sorry for that. im going to try really fucking hard to be a good role model for my brother, he needs it. just, thank you again C.
You shouldn’t have to apologize for anything, and I don’t want you to feel like you owe me anything.If making you feel better and putting a smile on your face helps, then it’s worth it.
