I am separated from my husband with a toddler . The relationship dissolved as soon as I found out I was pregnant. Devastation does not cover how I felt. I am a single mum and do the best I can. I love my child but sometimes can't shake the feeling that I will never have the life I always wanted. The home, husband and children. I feel completely lost and trapped and sometimes feel that I could've made a clean break if I didn't get pregnant. Im also so sad that the life I wanted for my child is not there, just feel heartbroken when I go out and see happy families together. I now don't really like going out. I avoid people so I can avoid having to explain my situation.
I know the best thing to do is to go out and meet people and move on with life but having a small child makes that impossible to do. I would like to meet someone one day but feel like it's too late for me. I have quite bad self esteem following my relationship and can't see anyone wanting to be with me especially now I have a child.
I feel that life is passing me by and will always pass me by. I feel like I'm dying a little bit each day. I put on a brave face but I'm anxious about the future.
Does anyone have any advice/experience of being in this situation? Any response at all would be appreciated.
