Today, for my birthday, the only "gift" my parents gave me was the gift of choice: I got to choose which one of them I'll be living with after their upcoming divorce. This was the first time I'd heard anything about a divorce. FML

Things like this are never easy... Keep your head up!

That doesn't seem fair at all! Sorry op. they should have warned you and gave you time. But to tell you on your birthday was not the best choice.

:/ that sucks op. us April fools babies get it bad. My cousin tricked me into thinking my husband got bitten by a spider.. I saw no evidence of a purple bruise all day yet I still freaked out. Happy birthday.

Happy birthday!!! ... But your parents could of and should of waited to tell you that so they wouldn't of messed up your birthday.

Sorry, OP. Divorce is rough no matter what the circumstances surrounding it. My parents had a fairly amicable divorce and it was still hard to deal with. Just know that things feel more "normal" (as normal as they can in the circumstances) as the months and years go by.

That's something that you can't even joke about. Your parents are idiots.

At least you where not in the situation where neither parents fought for your custody.

I still resent my parents for getting divorced, but think how it's hard for them. One of them has to live with being said 'no' to.

What bastard parents would do that on your birthday. Soz OP.
