Today, as my mom was getting ready for a date, I told her that I think it's too early for her to date, since she divorced my dad only a week ago. She then said, "Don't worry, I'm only in it for sex." FML

To each their own; everybody needs someone

It could be her way of coping, sadly. I'm sorry OP. .-.

What is the problem ? They have been probably estranged for a few years. It's moronic to wait for a piece of paper to start living again. You probably unconsciously expect them to get back together.

Mom is getting some, what's wrong with that? Sex is fun and natural. She probably shouldn't have told her child her motives tho.

i'm guessing they have been separated for months if they finalised their divorce last week. You're mother wants to move on, you should support her.

I don't really see why support should be unconditional. Since we don't know anything else about the situation, I really don't see why op *should* support his/her mom.

Good for her. What kids don't often think about is that by the time a divorce is final their parents most likely have not had a physical relationship for over a year. Everyone has needs.

OP, your mothers dating life is none of your business. She can do whatever the Hell she wants.

It's called freedom of opinion. Op is allowed to have an opinion on the matter. She's just not obligated to do anything with it.

At least you don't have to worry about her getting you a new father.

She probably hasn't gotten any in a long time. A relationship will typically deteriorate for a while before it ends in divorce meaning no sex.

What your parents need is not your place to say. If they felt a divorce was best then it probably was in their situation. You have no right to tell your mom that she cannot date just because she had a divorce recently. Everyone handles that sort of situation differently.
