If you are friends with a married couple, then they are going through a divorce is there a way to still be friends with both people or do you have to pick a side?

going through this right now...
Divorce is way over my maturity level... I was just coming to grips that i'm at the point where the majority of my friends will be married... I'm sort of refusing this whole I have divorced friends crap..
2) We (the mutualy friends) are staying out of it.. both are good friends... no one is taking sides no one is getting to involved...

What if one of them calls you because they need some one to talk to?
Do you say "Sorry you need to be finished going through your problems"?

I've experienced this. I didn't choose sides and I had them both call and want to talk. I made it clear that I'm only here so you can talk it out. I don't make comments regarding the relationship or the other person. I made sure the focus wass on the speaker only. When it came to events and invitations i either invited neither, explaining the awkwardness that would ensue if they were both there and that instead of hurting someone's feelings i didn't invite them OR if it's something that speaks to the personality of one and not the other, then I'd invite the one who fits the event.
they're pretty cool with each other now so it's no longer an issue
