Anyone around? Really need an unmumsnetty hug

[colouringinpro]

probably totally predictable to my friends. And sounds like a total cliche. But I've had a totally Shit 7 years. And I met someone wonderful who, I do believe really liked me too.

But he's married. Just found out. And I'm not good

I just can't do another nightmare autumn

too many awful autumns

Hello. Have a hug. You deserve one (or maybe even two because you're special). This feels shit right now, but you're here, your kids are here, and nothing that has happened is insurmountable because you're going to make it ok. Don't let some bastard feel that you're anything less than awesome.

Go to bed, try to sleep, and get up tomorrow with a breath of wind behind you that whispers "I'm on top of my shit and noone gets to tell me otherwise".

You've got this.

There is a weird strength in surviving bad days, find your grit and hang on.

Very controversial & not like me but,
Married guy could be a port in a storm instead of a night in shining armor.

Sounds like you could do with a break from the normal. Is this a possibility?

whoops Yes.

namechanger thank you, I will try.

I am now swearing fucking shorting constantly

I love mumsnet x

shorting???

asshole

oh God.

You poor thing... big hugs from Aus. You need a polarity reverse on your bad luck magnet. I’m sorry!!! I hope your seven years is over and good things come your way from now on!!!

Have a nights sleep and hopefully tomorrow will bring some clarity.

I think you need to be good in yourself to make good choices. Maybe you’re not ready to pick ‘ the one’ yet x

xx 😥

I’m sorry 🌷((((unmumsnetyy hugs))))

Did he tell you? Did he assume you knew? How long have you been seeing him?

If he’s serious about you then maybe you could meet his (Ex) wife?

As for Autumn 🍂🍂🍂try embracing it instead, it’s actually my favourite season. Lots of fabulous colours and clear sunny days!make it a great autumn!

Yuck what a shitbag. I'm sending love but at least you know and can move on x

yeah miss I've just had a big delete session.

struggling not to go down the "why" route

Unmumsnetty big hug from me. I’m so sorry it’s not been good on several fronts, there’s no time to get through each crisis before something else comes up :0(((

I hope the cycle breaks itself. You’ve managed up till now, that takes a lot of strength. Like a PP said, a short break from the normal could recharge you - the problems won’t vanish but you will be more able to run at them. I hope your children will be fine too.

Are you sure they aren't separated?

My sister is living with her ex - they can't afford two houses until house sells but live separate lives until it is sorted.

A big hug from me lass.

he says they lead separate lives. But clearly is still invested in marriage. We can be "friends". er no thanks, you're the one that changed our friendship into something else, you don't get to have your cake and eat it.

sadly no escape options. am having a miserable day today, hoping to get it out of my system today...

Do something nice for yourself. Read a book. Paint toenails. Relaxing bath. Anything that allows you to get lost just for a little while.

it was nice not feeling so lonely for a time.
