I talked to my college roommate today. I lived with her for 2 years, and for a lot of that time her boyfriend (now husband) lived with us, too. We were kind of like that show 3 is Company. I love them both to death. I was even in the delivery room with them when their little girl was born (right before I moved out.) Their daughter was my flower girl.
Apparently, she asked him for a divorce last night. I know they have had a somewhat rocky marriage for awhile, but last time I saw her, it seemed like they were doing better. It makes me really sad. (Plus, it is a little hard because I'm good friends with them both. AND he is my younger brother's boss at work.) She and I have always been super close, so I feel like I need to be there to support her first and foremost, but I don't want him to feel like I don't care how he is doing, etc.
Plus, their little girl is almost 4. (In a few weeks.) I feel bad for her, because she is old enough to recognize mommy or daddy not being around, but not old enough to "get" it, know what I mean?
The whole thing is icky. Icky, icky, icky.

I am a gluten-free, gun-toting wife! :P
I love you, Daddy...2/24/1953 to 2/13/2011
pretty much took the words right out of my mouth!!!
I agree with Kim, don't take sides. Just be there for both of them and keep a neutral stance if either of them needs a friend to talk to, and make sure they both know you love them! Also make sure to spend a little extra time with their little girl if you can...she'll benefit from all the friendly, loving faces she can get!
