Let your mum know how you feel... that you are sad. It won't change what she is doing... after being in a relationship that was unfulfilling for her for so many years, she probably wants to have something for herself now... you may see that as selfish, but think of the many years she has devoted to raising you... she deserves something for herself, too. I remember thinking that about my mum when my parents separated, but now I know she is happy. It just takes time and getting used to a new situation. Perhaps talking to a grief counsellor will help... i know that may sound strange, but having parents separate is much like losing a loved one, especially id one parent moves very far away.
No matter how much your mum needed to separate and needs stuff for her now, you also have a right to be happy. She is your mother, and thus responsible for you. Let her know that you are really upset and don't know how to feel at the moment, and that you need some support too. Hopefully she is reasomable enough to know that although she may be happier, not everyone is as happy as she is about the separation.
I don't know how far this will go in changing the situation... I doubt whether your parents will get back together. I'm sorry it has happened to you, and knowing that you feel this way has actually helped me in a way, too... I really hope things work out for you.

hotangelictomboy my parents have been married for twenty-four years. Now, out of no where, my mother says that she has been emotionally shut out from my father for all those years since they've been married. They got seperated about two months ago and now my mother wants a divorce and she is starting to date a guy named Dave. how am I supposed to feel about all of this happening so fast. i've seen my parents together for the past eighteen and a half years. I don't know what to do.
Everyone reacts differently to these kinds of situations. Don't worry so much about what you think you're "supposed" to feel... How do you actually feel?
I was 12 when my parents got divorced, and for the longest time, I was ashamed to admit...I was relieved. They'd been fighting for so long, and my mother was clearly unhappy, and when she announced she was seeking a divorce, I wasn't upset. I was frigging relieved that I wouldn't have to walk on eggshells around her anymore.
It's hard to see your parents dating other people. Even though I'm the type of person who just rolls with the punches, I have to admit, it was terribly hard to adjust to seeing my mother with a man who was not my father.
Are your parents the kind of people you can open up to? If they are, or if one of them is, sit down with them and just explain how you feel. Be honest, and get it out in the open. Sometimes it's the best thing you can do.
