Divorce is so selfish. 

Too many of us out there are playing the part of a martyr in our divorce.  We claim to have sacrificed our dreams, our time, our hobbies, our lives for this person and for what?  To be left alone in the end.  It's so tempting to play the victim isn't it?  Why do so many people on here whine about their lack of affection, sex, money, (anything petty goes here), etc.  Is there anyone out there that is disgusted with our materialistic culture?  Who gives a flying flip about the latest celeb gossip? STOP POSTING THIS FOOLISHNESS. Sienna Miller?  Really?  Let's talk about something pressing, important.  Let's use this incredible forum to talk about our kids, our futures, our worries, our goals, our aspirations, our relationships.

I love when someone posted about how much kids are dragged through divorce as unwilling accomplices.  Too often they are forced to choose between parents, making them be the 'bad guy.'  It's unfair.  We as adults, as parents, need to step up and realize that it's not all about us.  This website is an incredible resource to ask for advice from people who understand exactly what we're going through.  We can contact lawyers for legal help. We can get in touch with therapists for counsel. BUT WHAT ABOUT OUR CHILDREN?  Where is there outlet for advice?  How are they dealing with their mom's infidelity?  Who are they supposed to ask questions to about finances?  It's so upsetting.
