Looking for a bit of advice / guidance from people who may have been through this or know someone who has.
I feel like Iv come to a point in my life where I need to take some time to concentrate on myself, get to know who I really am and although I Know what I Want from a relationship I seem to throw it out of the window when it actually boils down to it. Hence im again single with three kids.
To cut a long story short I was in ea relationship ages 16-30 two dc, left and had a rebound relationship and ds which has now ended. This relationship had its own issues but In being honest with myself I can see that from the start I wasnt making the best choices.
I feel I am defined by being a mum. I have a couple of good friends but no real social circle no interests or hobbies and find it very difficult due to kids work and childcare to do anything outside of home. I Want to find out who I am what really makes me tick and work out how to get what I Want from life. I feel like im having a mid life crisis type of thing! I also don't want to repeat past mistakes and end up feeling the same way over and over in relationships.
Any wise words, experiences, recommended books to work through this stuff?
