Question for divorced Mamas!

post #1 of 20
Thread Starter 
This is just for my own curiosity, if it is too personal you don't have to answer! I am just curious for those of you that got a divorce how long were you with your X and how old were you when you get a divorce?

For the record I was married to STBX for 6 years and with him for 8 years and I am 27.

I got married when I was almost 18, 17 and 8 months.
We separated when I was 35. We were married in August and we separated in July.

We have been married 18 years, I lived with him for 17 years and 11.5 months.
I guess technically we are still married because we're still not finalized.

I joke I could have had a baby and raised it in that time and I did. Our oldest dd will be 17 in June.

I am hurting right now because he's already got a new gf as of last month. I knew he'd move on fast and I should probably thank my lucky stars that he is preoccupied with other things than harrassing us right now.

Edited to add he was 21 when we married and 40 when we split.

Got married when I was 20, DH was 21. We were married 3 yrs 3 months when he left. Our divorce is still pending, so we are still legally married. Our 6 yr wedding anniversary would be this may.

I was with my ex for five years, dating and marriage included. I was 25 (almost 26) when we got divorced.

We were together nearly 6 years, married ~ 4.5 when he moved out. The divorce was finalized just shy of what would have been our 6th anniversary.

We were together for 9 months then married for just over 2yrs.
I was 30 when we the divorce was finalized.

Honestly, we were together for 2yrs too long.

At the time my ex and I split, we had been together for 10 1/2 years, 8 1/2 of them married. We were technically still married at the 9th anniversary, but divorced by what would have been the 10th. I was 40 when my divorce was final. I am now 44.

Ex & I started dating when I was 19 (he was 23).

After we had been dating for 5 years we separated (had one child who was 2).

After 14 months, we reconciled, got pg with a second baby, got married (so had been dating 8 years at this point) - and when we had been married for almost 2 years...

Divorce.

So, I was 28 when we separated the second time. Little convoluted, eh?

I was 28 when we divorced. We had been married 4 years, but together for 10.

I'm now 33 and remarried.
post #19 of 20
at our wedding, i was 10 or 11 wks shy of 22. ex was 19y2m.

when he moved out, we were 3 wks shy of our 3rd anniversary.

it took us about 7 yrs to get divorced. the whole thing only took 6 mos start to finish, we just didnt file for yrs.

so our divorce was final 2.5 mos b4 our 10th anniversary, while we were together just under 3 yrs.

I met STBX when I was 27 and he was 28. We were together over 5 years and married 2 of those years. Our divorce cannot be finalized until October 31 of this year, which would have been during our 3rd year of marriage.
