Divorce sucks (rant/vent)

my (18f) parents have somewhat separated back in January of this year. they haven’t signed any papers to my knowledge so they're still legally married. my mom has leased a place until June and they keep treating this all like they’re going to get back together when the lease is up, but I know they’ve been separating things like they’re bank accounts. I know I’m lucky in the sense that they’re peaceful with each other and never talk negatively about each other to me or my brother (15m), and they were never out right abusive or aggressive with eachother or my brother and I, but it all really sucks. I hate working out who‘s place we’re going to for dinner. I hate tip toeing around the question of do I need to have 2 birthday dinners to make you guys happy. and I hate the gut feeling of my mom not moving back in after June. I’m set to move away for uni this September and I hate that I’ll have 2 homes to go back too on the holidays. I just wish my mom never moved out. I’ve seen the signs since I was around 9 but always just assumed they would wait til both my brother and I moved out to work things out. it feels selfish but I wish that my mom had just waited instead of this happening my senior year of high school. sorry for the ramble I just had to get this off my chest
