So... today, something happened today that made life completely look up.
(This is from an IM convo I had with someone, so it's spaced out. This is what happened to me though)

You might be able to figure out why I left.

============================================================

Well, a few months ago, my dad divorced my mom, (Which I'm actually taking well, not really feeling anything) which was a bit of a shock to me, since I thought it was always going to be my mom who was going to divorce my dad.

But yeah, recently, my dad wanted to take all my brother's and I's college funds and savings bonds, and our house. (Which he estimated at $260,000)

Everything was stressful after that, and then my mom found out that he was with someone, and he actually admitted (In court) that he had sex with her. (I wasn't in court though.)

So, a few days ago in court, he decided to let my brother and I have our savings bonds and college funds, and he now wants the money from 1/2 the house. (Which he thought would be $130,000 for him)

My mom KNEW the house wasn't worth $260,000 since they bought the house for $110,000 back in the day, and with the economy and the state of disrepair it's in, she thought it'd be worth $100,000, and she made sure to get an inspector to check it.

The inspector came today, and told her the house was hazardous due to mold (Which I will admit, isn't good.) and thinks it's worth about $70,000. This would give my dad $35,000, but $50,000 is already going to be taken out of that $70,000, since they both have to pay for repairs,or something like that.

Which means the house is worth a technical $20,000

Making the cost for my dad $10,000.

So, my mom has to pay my dad a WHOLE lot less than she would've had to, if she didn't check,

My mom is less stressed, and hasn't been yelling at all lately, so I'm much less stressed, and I can relax for once.

I also cleaned my room, so she's not going to get stressed about that either.

My mom also checked what my dad wanted for custody (Since I'm in her custody), and he said every other weekend.

My mom (I asked her to do this) fought, and won the rights for me to choose if I want to go that weekend, and fought to make sure I wouldn't be
1.) Spending the night wherever
2.) Going anywhere with his girlfriend
3.) Going anywhere with any girl he might be seeing
4.) Go to New York (Where he moved in with another woman)
5.) I'm able to go ANYWHERE in New England (Aside NY) w/ him, and not get in trouble for it.,

============================================================


I'm back in school (11th). Dad's paying 1/2 of that, so I'm glad about that.

My grades suffered the first few days, but they're back up now.

My brother's been okay, too. (He's also stressed, but not as stressed as mom.)

I've been in Therapy, since my mom thinks it's strange that I'm not feeling anything
(and I swear I'm not, or at least not feeling much.) I changed it to once every month though, since I HAVE to go.

I'm seeing my dad this weekend to go to Tokyo Game Action for my B-Day. I'm a bit afraid, though.

Anyways, comments and questions (If you have any)

Yeah, I can understand why you left.

So I'm getting the impression that you want to stay with your mom and she (and you) want him to have little control over your life from here on out?


One piece of advice.... and you'll learn this quickly... it will almost always be an "us" vs. "them" situation with both of your parents... even if they deny they feel that way. At least that's how a lot of parents are. They want you to want to be around them and have more fun with them and so on. You'll learn to be diplomatic (and possibly even lie) to keep both parents happy... unless you don't care how one of them feels .

It's tough though... having divorced parents. My wife's parents are divorced and dealing with both sides and trying to keep everyone happy with holidays and so on is a pain. You figure it out though.

I'm fine living with my mom, but not with her stress.
I'm mainly just going wherever my brother would go though.
(We keep each other sane. He's living with my mom.)

Yeah, I've learned that it's probably best to not say ANYTHING to them, and just act as if you're listening, hide, or continuously nod your head.

I've got most of them figured out.
