[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always say sorry when I hear someone is getting divorced. It's a period in your life that sucks. So sorry that you're going through it.

If you are insecure about people feeling bad that you are going through a non-ideal time, I don't know what to tell you. No one is going to say, "great job" when they hear about a divorce. [/quote]

[b]Nobody is insecure about it.[/b] People are just surprised that obtuse people like you exist.[/quote]

This is not true. My sister is still insecure about it.  If someone had told her congratulations she would have burst into tears.  Not everyone choses to divorce. Many times one party doesn't get a choice in the matter.

There are plenty of insecure divorced and married people in this thread. [/quote]

Nobody said to say congratulations, you sound insane.

If you don’t know the person well enough to know if it was good or bad don’t say either sorry or congratulations.

It’s just as rude to say congratulations to your sister as it is to say “sorry” to Op.

Neither is a correct response.

Nobody is insecure because they correct you about your take on their marriage/divorce.

If I said you have a miserable marriage and you said no it’s quite nice actually, are you insecure? No
If you say I have a miserable divorce and I say no it’s actually quite nice, am I insecure? No.
