I can’t seem to be able to pull myself up and I’m worried I’m getting depressed. H left 12 months ago. Emotional affair, he chose potentially being with her over his marriage to me. 4 year marriage, 10 year relationship.
Shouldn’t I be better by now?
I hate living on own, I have no children and am scared I will never have. I still get teary at the thought of it all, I get teary about the future, I’m scared, I’m lonely. I spend a lot of my weekends alone. My friends are broadly understanding but all have busy lives of their own, their weddings, pregnancies and children etc. I feel so disconnected, no family of my own, I don’t know were to turn my life. I have no confidence to put myself out there and I just feel lonely and cry. It’s hard to make friends as everyone seems to so sorted with family etc. I tried a course but no one wanted to go for a drink afterward as they all needed to get home.
Meanwhile STBXH is enjoying his life, and I feel so useless.
I know this sounds pathetic compared to what others go through.
I don’t even know why I’m posting.
