Hi

Sixsmith · 11/12/2022 03:55

Yeh

TheRealKatnissEverdeen · 11/12/2022 03:56

I fell asleep with the heating on. I want to kick myself as it's gonna cost a bomb! Plus I'm peri-menopausal so planned to read a book but ended up on MN!

I've been out tonight but I'm struggling
Tried to ring the Samaritans but there's a queue

What’s up?

Sixsmith · 11/12/2022 03:57

What are you struggling with
My mind makes monsters of things that almost always seem more manageable in the morning after sleep

nighhtwatch · 11/12/2022 03:59

Long story. I've been drinking on a night out which probably hasn't helped

I just.. I'm absolutely broken and I don't know where to start

We are all listening and sometimes sharing it can help a bit

Sixsmith · 11/12/2022 04:00

Things always seem worse in the middle of the night after a drink love. Can you try to sleep?

Bogeyes · 11/12/2022 04:00

I am awake

nighhtwatch · 11/12/2022 04:01

I'm going to try and take my makeup off and sleep
The short version is I fell in love, and it turns out he wasn't single

put The kettle on while you get ready for bed, then a tea and fill a hot water bottle if you have one, start with the small comforts x

Sixsmith · 11/12/2022 04:03

You're a fabulous creature, this demean him not you

Bogeyes · 11/12/2022 04:03

It's good that you found out sooner than later.

SantaBakula · 11/12/2022 04:04

I am listening to ,
Drink and the small hours makes my mind blow everything out of proportion.

If you want to share what is worrying you, if not tell us about your favourite film or book

10 months into it
He's just skipped off away with his girlfriend happily and I'm absolutely heartbroken

OP posts:
Sixsmith · 11/12/2022 04:05

Does she know

Sixsmith · 11/12/2022 04:05

Yikes! Ten months and then he lets you know he’s with someone else? That’s harsh! He’s a fool….you can and will do a million times better

TheRealKatnissEverdeen · 11/12/2022 04:09

This too shall pass...

But in the meantime.

  1. He's a piece of shit
  2. Better now than years in
  3. There's room for you to meet someone who's worthy of you
  4. There is usually a who lasts laugh lasts hardest in these situations. You will be ok.
  5. You'll be ok

You're gonna feel shit. Try and be kind to yourself. It's not your fault.
Do some things you like. Keep reaching out if you need to.

SantaBakula · 11/12/2022 04:09

Ohh i have just seen your update.

Well he is a Prince amongst men isn't he, 10 months is a big chunk of time to be deceived for but as hard as it may seem now at least you found out before any very long term commitments were made.

He didn't tell me, I found out on social media

Just feel like a complete idiot and like I've been used I guess

failedmydog · 11/12/2022 04:17

Oh that's just awful, I'm so sorry.

I'm up as I have digestive issues and decided in my wisdom tonight to say fuck it and ate pizza and ice cream.

I now look 8 months pregnant and my whole back and stomach is cramping.

Kind of serves me right, but equally annoyed I can no longer eat crap.

Looks like it's porridge and broccoli for the rest of my life!

I echo the posters it's good you've found out now and what an utter cock to do that to you.

I hope you can sleep x

SantaBakula · 11/12/2022 04:20

You are not a idiot!
People can be very cunning when it comes to hiding other relationships or past life's.
You won't forget the hurt but it will become easier to live with so use it as a tool to weed out any other arsehole
