[quote=Anonymous]My parents divorced after 35 years of marriage (so a bit younger than yours, OP) and it's been great. They should have divorced well before but my mom has had time to pursue her own interests and do the things she likes without having to deal with my dad, who moved back to his hometown. He eventually found love and happiness there. All is well. My IL's divorced in 2013 at 69 and 68. Not so pretty there. My MIL was caught off guard and was not/is not emotionally prepared. It's been very hard for her and all of us. My FIL initiated it and it has since ruined him - he'd retired but needed to go back to work, he has no money and very little relationship with any of his children. It's incredibly sad to watch. I hope for your mom that it's more like my parents' divorce. 70 is still young, I think. She's got another 20+ years to live...that's a LONG time to be miserable. [/quote]
