Today, my daughter cried for ages after finding out that Nick Amaro was written out of Law and Order: SVU. She barely reacted when I told her that her mom and I are getting a divorce. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my eldest daughter announced she was getting divorced. She never even told me she was married. FML
Today, my daughter told me she wanted to divorce me. FML
Today, my five year-old had to break the news to me that my husband was leaving me for someone else. FML
Today, I found my mother in tears, so I asked her what was wrong. She told me, "It's your father, he wants a divorce..." I asked if he'd met another woman, and my mom replied "No, not a woman..." FML
Today, I came home to find my dad crying. Turns out my parents are getting divorced because my mom had an affair. With a teacher at my school. A female teacher. And the school isn't going to fire her because she's a good teacher. Every day at school I'm going to have to see her. FML
Today, while I was working my shift at the store, my girlfriend appeared and asked to talk to me. Once we were alone, she burst into tears and started sobbing. Turns out someone's dad died in her favorite TV show and she wanted some comfort. FML
Today, our 9-year-old daughter was removed from our home and placed into a home for children too violent to function in a family setting. I can't stop crying but my wife hasn't been this happy in years. She was actually smiling as our daughter was restrained and forced out the front door. FML
Today, my son broke up with his girlfriend. When I asked why, he said, "Because I found out she's adopted. Ugh. I just can't with that, y'know?" Never before have I ever felt the desire to disown one of my kids. It's not a pleasant feeling. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because I dropped our daughter. Our hypothetical daughter. Represented by a stuffed owl. FML
Today, I had to be the one to break it to my daughter that WWE fighting was staged. She began crying. However, last month she didn't shed a single tear at her grandmother's funeral. FML

She's losing Nick Amaro. She's not losing either of you.

She's probably holding it you should talk to her

Or she maybe doesn't care. Depending on how old OP's daughter is she could have seen it coming, and not everyone is affected negatively by a divorce.

Yeah I remember when I was 14 and my parents were fighting all the time, it was no surprise to hear that my dad was moving out and it was a relief to come home from school instead of coming up with any excuse to stay at a friends house to avoid the arguments.

Depending on how recently she received the information, it may not have hit home yet. Big life-changing invents such as divorce don't always seem real at first.

She's probably expressing the pain from your divorce more inwardly and personally.

That's true,sometimes things don't get expressed immediately and when everything starts to fall apart ( OP's daughter being a big fan of the show) she reacted to both the things that way! Sad! But happens.

TV characters/tv shows run longer than marriages these days. Don't get me wrong OP, if be offended too, but statistically can we really blame her?

I was devastated when Nick left. I even cried and failed one of my college finals. Yeah, I don't have a life.....

It is one thing to get upset about one of your favourite characters leaving, it is another to let an imaginary show affect your life in such a way. Honestly, I believe it is okay to cry about those things, but it is downright idiotic to let it get to that extent.

how old is she ?

Wait what!!???? I think I need some Kleenex

Maybe she's just taking the divorce really well? Some people are like that. For example, I had a friend whose parents got a divorce, but she said she recognized that it was actually GOOD for that to happen because they were arguing and fighting all the time.

Haha, OP's username though.

Oh haha, I didn't even realize how clever OP's username was until you pointed it out!
