I don't really know how to explain this but I will try!!!
My parents split up when I was 11 and naturally mine and my siblings little world collapsed, but we all got through it and we all get on still as a family as my mum and dad are both amicable and have always been there together with no awkwardness as if still a family but a complicated one ha ha. I always thought I was pretty unscathed compared to some of my friends whose parents marriages broke down, however now I am married myself I find I'm constantly thinking my marriage will one day end, that my husband will leave me and I will be on my own. There's no reason for me to think this we are extremely happy, my husband is lovely and I adore him and him me... but I keep waiting for my bubble to burst... Because I always saw my mum and dad as blissful (rationally I know now as an adult it wasn't and the reasons why it ended etc) but I just can't shake the feeling that all marriages break up!! Am I the only child of divorced parents to feel like this?
Feel a bit of a loon for posting but it would be nice to know I'm not the only one who feels like this?
