If your parents divorced when you were an adult?

My dad has gone on dates, but he hasn't gotten serious with anyone. I've never met any of his dates. He is still having a hard time. He wants to get back together with my mom.

My mom has had two boyfriends I've met. She's been with her boyfriend for a very long time. She was very against getting remarried, but recently has started talking about it. Her boyfriend has wanted to get married for a really long time. I like him, but I don't see the two of them together. They've wanted different things since they met. My mom has pretty much only dated people she works with. I wish she'd put herself out there more. I think she has unrealistic expectations of a blended family.

My parents divorced when I was 21. It was ugly. Right away, my dad dated every hooker in orange county. (Not really, but they were all pretty gross). My mom never dated at all. There were a few big fights before my wedding (5yrs after the divorce) about dad inviting one of these hookers to my wedding. I put my foot down for several reasons regardless who was footing the bill (my dad).

Long story short, at my wedding the DJ unknowingly played my parents 1st dance song from their 1974 wedding. They danced and started secretly dating only to get remarried 2 years later. And they live happily ever after.

I still think it's the craziest story ever. I think my dad had to sew some wild oats or something because he loves the shit out of my mom now.
