Explosive reality and relationships: Adult Children of Divorce.
I think a majority of my friend's parents have gotten divorces. Some of my friends have also gotten divorces. Some of my recent friends have never settled down with one partner and lead a single's life.
Recently I have been exposed to violence in relationships. Perhaps this was always there. My first sexual partner had been sexually assulted by a previous partner.
It seems that as adult children of divorce we are as likely to use these patterns of explosion to end relationships. We would rather fight it out then work it out. Better to end it then work it through. I think this relates to explosive behavior. Maybe we are repeating our parent's battles.
