it was all very amicable, we kissed each other good bye, we cried, we said how much we loved each other and then he left. ATM its just a two week trial, he wasn't happy and I got fed up of feeling unwanted and generally shit about my self so it was something we decided together. we also decided, to give him time to get his head together, we wouldn't have any contact with each other for the full two weeks. our children (8&9) have their own mobiles so he can still get hold of them. anyway, now I'm sat here with no one to talk to and I'm feeling lonely. so what has everyone else been up to thus week end?

March must be tough..With an 8 & 9 year old you are still with the kids not time to find yourself just learn how lonley evenings can be as a LP...

Hopefully this will work itself out but if it doesn't you will know you can do it alone .x

it hit me this evening. it took my breath away. I work on my own so haven't seen anyone all day. my biggest fear was to me alone. last night I was just bored, this evening I'm miserable

Have you thought about taking up a new hobby? It would be a good distraction from the thing we won't mention, meet some new people and get you out the house. Doing something new even if you try it and don't want to carry on, beats staying at home night after night.

yes, I have a list of things to do when the two weeks are up because he can come here and look after them for me. but the kids think he's away for work. because nothing has been decided yet (although it sort of has) I cant tell many of my friends as the kids go to school together and I don't want anything getting back to the boys that way. my parents go to bed early (9pm) and the two friends I have told are pg so even if my parents could look after them, ive got no one to got out with. just stuck in limbo ATM.

OK, if you can't go out in the evenings do something at home. Do you like sewing, baking, reading, fitness DVD, writing a blog.... The point is to do/try something different, mix it up. Being creative will help, it'll provide a very good distraction and the sense of accomplishment will always make you smile

yes, I need to finish an enderman and creeper that in crocheting for the kids. I do need to do it. I'm just having a bad night is all. my friend is coming over tomorrow evening, and we are all going the there house on Wednesday. my youngest has the hospital on Thursday evening and then we're off to another friends house in Somerset for the weekend on Friday, I am fully booked from tomorrow. I suffer with depression, normally brought on by loneliness. I had 5 days to prepare I just didn't prepare for yesterday or today very well lol. thank you for talking to me though. I am feeling better now.
