[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This totally f*d up up one of my dearest friends and his siblings for life. He felt like his entire life had been a sham an has had an extreme amount of difficulty with relationships and trust, 20 years later.  [/quote]

Why?  Because his mom finally left the terrible situation after launching the children? [/quote]

Well, yes.

He would have rather his mother actually *be*  pretending to be happy.

He felt like he and his siblings were the burden of his parents unhappiness, as if they hadn’t been there, they would have split. “I was unhappy and put my entire life and actualize riot on hold for you” is a huge burden for a person who never asked for that.

His parents never let them know there was any unhappiness in their relationship. It was all a big farce, and now he feels he can not judge happiness, or his instincts about his relationships.

When asked, he says he would have much rather them divorce and coparent amicably, which he thinks they could have done as they did the rest of the charade. [/quote]

So nothing seemed wrong to him about their marriage? No arguments, household roles issues, no addictions, no money problems, no adultery, no neglect…?.

Hmm. Has he ever asked each of them what happened? Or is communication bad all the way around? [/quote]
