I have only ever slept with dh.

I am incredibly, incredibly homesick even though I am 29 and left home 10 years ago. :(

I dont have any hobbies because I never get so much as 5 minutes to myself, ever.

ALovelyBunchOfCoconuts · 05/01/2011 18:13

I went to primary school with a premier league footballer.

I met my DH online by accident and he lived up the road from me for 4 years and went out drinking with my friends yet we'd never met.

I have an irrational fear of the dentist, spiders and..... baked beans.

vintageteacups · 05/01/2011 18:14

That's so sad (upsetting) unmentioned.
Why do you think you're still homesick after 10 years? I was much the same......then moved back to the town where all my family are.......I'm moving away again the summer Grin

Unrulysanta · 05/01/2011 18:16

Wow - some very weird wonderfulness out there!

TheUnmentioned · 05/01/2011 18:21

vintageteacups My whole family live in one small seaside town (that I was DESPERATE to get away from) and since I had kids I just want them growing up with people who love them all around them. I want to bump into people I know and have always known in the supermarket, you know? When I call my mum and I can hear my niece and nephew playing in the background because my sister has 'just popped in' it makes me want to cry. :( I think its all very acute just now because dd is only 14 weeks, ds is 4 and my dad is very seriously ill.

Sorry for the essay.

Sad unmentioned - you sound like you need to get some extra support. You are brave though; not living near to the rest of your family, even though you are desperate to.
