Anyone who’s parents got divorced: Is it possible for us to have happy and long-lasting marriages? I know society says that we’re a statistic and a lot more likely to end up in divorce, ourselves, but is it ever different? My parents split up after 24 years together and I’m worried that my own marriage will end up like theirs which is why I’m on hiatus from any kind of relationship for the time being just because I’m scared of the stigma that I now carry around. Is it possible for me to eventually be able to find “the one” and let him in and get close to me and love me? I’m 21 and on the verge of becoming a commitment phobe which is an idea that terrifies me.
