Hi any ideas what I could do if I'm always board I feel I got nothing to do. I work full time but seems in my spare time I have nothing to look forward to I have a husband and teenage children but kids are always with boyfriend/ girlfriend. My husband and I just seem to not to anything. He always likes to chill out as he works Also early morning Mon to sat.... I feel all I do is just eat and binge watch TV then I feel guilty then as I feel lazy. I just don't have motivation to do anything .

My DH is like this, so I do my own thing. You need to do things for yourself. I go to the gym, I go shopping and sit on my own and have a coffee. Just do it!

You need to look for activities outside of the home.
A year ago I was feeling the same as you so I got off my arse & signed up for various things in my area.
So far I have tried paddle boarding on the canal, canoeing, walking club, a sewing club, community litter picking, book club & pottery classes. I continue with all but canoeing & the walking club.....the group were much older than me & damn they think a 9 mile walk was a breeze I couldn't keep up!

It's not so much the activities but the lovely people I have met and have become friends with. DP has also recently joined the paddle boarding & litter picking off the back of listening to me relay the funny things that have happened. It's actually improved our relationship too.

I urge you to see what's available in your area.
