ohmygoodness, i know EXACTLY how you feel. anytime i hear my mom and dad fight, i think, "are they going to divorce?" not because i think they will but because society is so fond of the concept. but you know what? I think that we are affect so deeply BECAUSE our parents fight so seldomly. you know? because if my parents told me tomorrow that they were getting a divorce, it would be coming completely from out of the blue, and unexpected, and it would shake up every notion of love and commitment i've ever had. BUT, if they DID fight all the time and made each other miserable, then the idea of divorce wouldn't be such a shocker.

so yeah, our parents have great relationships. they fight, but they fight through it, and always fight for their relationship. but because society has made divorce so common, we fear it, and fear it taking us completely by surprise.

oh, relationships. how i love thy messyness.
