Feeling sad

[Itsawrap2002]

Just feeling low and sad that I'm in my 30's and I find myself as an unemployed single mom. Finding myself feeling more angry and frustrated each day. Seems to get interviews for jobs but then feedback '....really good interview but unfortunately there were a couple people with more experience...' relationships start out positive then they go quiet. Just having a wallow on self-pity moment.

Don't have much support to offer other than an ear...with regards to the job part...is there an area you want to get into that you could perhaps retrain in? I'm 36 and got an ok amount of money to survive on while doing my degree...the same amount a part time job would bring in per annum and you may qualify for more If you have children. You are obviously doing something right if they are saying you had a good interview.

The relationship part is more difficult...I went a good ten years being either single or getting a bit heartbroken. But I honestly (not patronising here I swear) believe it's better to be single with some hobbies, friends, family and a social life than in a bad relationship....sending a hug
