Feeling lonely

I think I have finally worked out what's wrong with me, I'm married, have two children, I work (but a fairly non social job), I have a side business, I have friends (although not a good social life) and I've realised I'm lonely. It just feels stupid having lots to be grateful for and having people in my life but I'm still lonely 🙁

It's weird isn't it to be lonely when married...

I was never lonelier than when I was married. Now I'm divorced I spend more time alone, but am less lonely.
Do you enjoy the company of your DH?

I think I do, he makes me laugh and i dont mind being with him, and I also like being without him. But he does annoy me and we are very different but that's life. We have been together nearly 16 years. We had a bad patch last year when I said I wasn't happy and we have spoken through so much. He nicer and more helpful now. I know feelings change over the years and have realised he's a bit rubbish at being supportive with emotional things.
