RFCDrum Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Yep it sucks my parents divorced when I was ten back in 1980. I think back now and it was probably the best thing for them.

JTFormula Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 I was in my later 20's when my parents split. Beside seeing my father at my nephews confirmation a couple months ago I haven't spoken with him in 7 years.

Popular Post 1958 F.W.D. Posted August 8, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2013 Never fun. I got divorced from my first wife back in 2001. It wasn't fun but felt like I got paroled at the time. Best thing we could have done for one another. Didn't have any kids with her so it was relatively easy. EastCoast obviously you are not a kid- remember to keep your sanity by telling your mom and dad not to use YOU or any siblings as a go-between. Tell them if they have something to say to the other, pick up the phone or type an email out or something, but YOU AINT LISTENING!!!!! 3 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32217-just-not-a-happy-time/#findComment-198715 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike69mackman Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I agree with randy, when parents divorce no matter how amicable it is or isn't , the kids pay a heavy price.

Eastcoastdiesel Posted August 9, 2013 Author Share Posted August 9, 2013 So after a little bit of pushing, I got out of it. And they settled on some mundane stuff. Thank goodness, it hurts to see them actually make the split, but at the same time I think it's better. Every time I went over they were argueing about something. Decided to fall in part time with the company I contract for, to drive some local loads and regional transfers. To keep my sanity hehe. Kind of on a need basis. Then maybe go full time mechanic again and spend some time on the back of my horse and dirtbike in the middle of the fall. Thank ya guys, y'all have made me feel much better!! 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32217-just-not-a-happy-time/#findComment-198871 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike69mackman Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I never met most of these fellas until macungie this year and only a few before that , but they offered me a lot of prayers and encouragement when I was sick and I consider them family. They are a great group of fellas and you can always count in them when you need them.

Thank ya guys, y'all have made me feel much better!!This is mor than a truck site but an extended family. You can count on this group for a shoulder to cry on, or moral support. I've been through this myself so I know how difficult it is. You'll survive. Even though I avoid the Church like the plauge, i fully believe God never gives you more than you can handle. 4 Quote ~ JT Burkard ~ AKA Sweaty Mackwww.jtresto.com www.wickedreputation.netwww.jonathanthomasmotorcars.com Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32217-just-not-a-happy-time/#findComment-198956 Share on other sites More sharing options...
