I love my husband, because he's a good man. But I'm bored. I've been enjoying chatting to new people at a group I've started going to once a week. It's stimulating, and interesting, and intelligent and, above all, new.
I've been married for 10 years, with my DH for 13, and we got together young. And we have children. And I'm a SAHM.
I can manage the children, that's not the issue. They'll grow up and I'll get a life of my own then...actually, that's not fair. I do have a life of my own - I have my own interests and I go out etc. But, what I mean is, I won't have any dependent-type ties in a few years.
But, every now and then at the moment, I keep having periods when I just want to meet someone else. I don't want to marry someone else, but I want to meet someone, flirt, have it maybe lead somewhere, be exciting.
And, I know I'm selfish - you don't need to tell me that - but I want it all. I want all that and I want my husband to be at home loving me and being wonderful, and I want to love him too - I do love him. I'm just bored.
And when I get like this, I get sad, and cry, and then my children pick up on my mood and behave like little ratbags, and I know that it's all my fault for being ungrateful and selfish.
Can anyone help me work out what the hell to do so I'm not living the rest of my life wishing I wasn't living it this way?
