My DH and my best couple friends are in the very begining stages of going through a divorce. They have been married a short 6 months and they say it just isn't working and that they shouldn't have gotten married. They are young (26) so part of me thinks that maybe it's for the best, cut their losses and start over if they aren't happy but part of me thinks that they are just not trying. Regardless, I'm not here to pass judgement on them but instead we are both trying to be supportive and as nuetral as possible. But it's hard! The husband is my husbands best friend (like a brother) and so we have offered up our couch while he looks for an apt- very short-term situation. But I do feel caught up in it and just needed to vent, I guess.
Has anyone been through this? And how do you do it? They think they can be friends and it seems like they plan on hanging out with our circle of friends together and possibly us as a foursome still. I am just not ok with this- they might be comfortable with that, but what about the people around them?
