Spin-off of a spin-off.

Are your parents still married?
Divorced?
Remarried?

My parents have been married 41 years. Great role models for my wife and I as they have been through it all together.

My parents divorced when I was 5. He remarried. Mom did not but she's in a long term relationship. My in-laws have been married for a long time, I think 35+ years.

Oh shit, I read it wrong. Thought this was about yourself.

My parents divorced when I was 23. Dad is remarried, mom lives with her boyfriend but they're not married.

My Dad was married twice. Second marraige after my mother died. He took both to the end. I call and treat my step mother 'Mom' to this day. The way he treated both my mothers, the reverence and love he showed for both, were a tremendous influence on me...he was a great role model.

I'm married, now 31 years.

Parents got divorced when I was in 8th grade. It was a pretty tough age and sucked at the time, but looking back it probably needed to happen. They just didnt get along. Both are remarried and seem to be pretty happy. I have a good relationship with my step parents as well. They treat me as their own.

My parents are divorced. My family is kind of complicated haha.

My mom had my oldest brother at 19 but was never married to his dad. She then married my dad and had my brother and me, but divorced when we were young. I think I was two...but I don't remember (for obvious reasons). She married for the second time when I was four and had my little brother and sister but then divorced their dad when I was seven or so. She married my current stepdad when I was 13 and they have been married ever since. Fourteen years and counting. My stepdad has two sons from a previous marriage, so there are seven of us total.

My dad remarried when I was eight or nine and they have also been married ever since.

I get along great with all of my parents (step included). They all helped raise me and I was always expected to treat them with respect, biological or not. I also get along with my oldest brothers dad and my moms second husband. We are one big, crazy, happy family.

My parents have been married 34 years, unfortunately. They just stayed together "for us kids", even though us kids said get a freakin' divorce because you are both so damn unhappy. We are all grown, but they say fuck it, they've been together too damn long.
