My son is 15 and daughter 11. I have been used to my son going out with his friends and not spending much time with me for a few years now, but now my daughter is wanting to do the same and I feel so lost and super lonely! My life has been child centred for nearly 15 years and now I have all this free time I've no idea what to do with it or feel guilty if I plan something! It's a strange feeling. They are growing up, I know that and if they are happy than do am I but how do I deal with feeling so lost?

I'm in the same position. My youngest has started to spread her wings. Time to do things for you. I've joined a small running group. Not that I can run. It gets me out twice a week. It's a start of building my own life away from the children.

I'm finding it hard adjusting into being on my own! My daughter was my little side kick. I think you're right, I need to get into a new hobby. I go running on my own in a morning but be nice to meet people some how. What area do you live in lol
