AIBU to cry for three hours?

[FabbyChic]

Am I?

My son has gone.

He usually sits on the other sofa with a Skype headset on, always there never moved for two years, now he has gone and I miss him so much.

I worry that he is sitting in his Uni room all alone without his laptop cos he left the charger here. Has he even eaten? What if he doesn't make friends, what if he is lonely.

I've no one in RL to talk to, I've no family.

Is my son going to be okay? Will I myself survive this cos it really hurts. It's just me and the dog, I'm even worried I'm neglecting the dog.

If you have blubbed solidly for three hours, Fabby, top up your fluids. I know from bitter experience that crying without replenishing leads to a monster of a headache.... or it does for me anyway.

What subject is your OU course?

I'm waiting for the post in about 2 months that says

"he's brought home 456 bags of dirty washing how the fuck am I going to get it all washed and dried in the 2 days he's home and oh fuck there's condoms"

yanbu
have a hug

Im studying Psychology. Yeah Yeah don't laugh you gitarses.

... Go Fabby!

YABVU if you let him know how you feel. Back off with the phone calls and texts. He's left home, and really that's a good thing. If he feels guilty about you being lonely it will give him a sick feeling in the pit of his stomach. And you don't want that.

YANBU to cry.

I feel for you in a big way FabbyChic, I hope you and your canine friend will be ok. It'll never be the same, but perhaps fill this void of washing/picking up after/cooking etc with a new and completely different hobby? Something to totally absorb you (apart from of course showering the dog with more cuddles).

One big, huge unFabbyChic-type hug and a large glass of wine.

He'll be ok, I promise.

Is your posting style on here an experiment, then?

Sorry, Fabby...

And hush, stabby. I always disposed of the condoms... Even after having DS, my mother thinks I'm a virgin...

Ahem, I have Ben and Jerry's, if that'd help, btw?

oh yanbu, i really feel for you. So sorry it's a hard day for you x

Yeah Yeah don't laugh you gitarses. Love it

God I'd kill for chocolate! Should have bought myself some, I only have a packet of Polos.

Fabby, an erra has ended and a new one starts. Its natural to feel upset but soon you will like the new situation.

I'm also glad of the kind responses and exactly what hatesponge said from me too.

Polos?! What? They will not do.

Shhhhhhhhhhh..... It'll be okay..

There there, let it all out.

Ive just found some Quality Street left over from christmas in the fridge, they do.

Oops... Sorry about that...

Heroes? Oh my . Yum!

How big is your fridge for you to lose chocs in it??

(Roses are better )

FABBY - chocolate!!! Left over from fucking CHRISTMAS

Who the flip keeps chocolate in the fridge? That's wrong on so many levels!

Ahhh, not the cremem egg thingies, Fabby... DS will have a tantrum if he can't have one tomorrow...

Who reported my post? It was a sodding joke!

Less than a minute between the first and second which makes it perfectly clear that it was indeed, tongue-in-cheek but

If they were as quick with trigger finger on the disablist posts it'd be bloody fantastic

Sorry to derail your thread Fabby m'love.

Have something savoury too, to replace the lost salt. Crisps or Chinese perhaps...

Its a bog standard fridge these were in the drawer at the bottom, all the ones we didn't like. Believe me when I say 9 months later, and when you have none they taste delicious!

Stabby has a point... :(

Unless you mean the chocolates you bought for next Christmas

Which is what the Heroes were
