Good afternoon all.

We seem to have some sun this morning.
Let's hope we do not have a repeat of the torrential rain we had yesterday.
I have walked the dogs and today I need to get on and tidy up.
The trouble is I still feel really tired and I do not know why?

I hope you are all having a good day and that the weather is behaving itself?

Better go and make a start!

Hi all. So another Sunday bites the dust. Hope the week ahead proves to be a positive one.

Hushabyemountain98 · 27/06/2016 07:34

Good morning madame.

I hope your weekend was okay?
I seem to have spent my weekend feeling tired.
I hope that you have a positive week.
Wishing the same to all my other MN friends.

Kirk123 · 27/06/2016 11:34

Btw he probably was thinking about me on a fab holiday with ds , whilst he plays happy families with her 2 kids and planning a nice little holiday with them at a kids resort !! Karma x

Hushabyemountain98 · 27/06/2016 11:48

Hi Kirk. Welcome back.
I was seriously thinking of ending my thread as I seem to be posting to myself rather a lot!
On the other hand MN is my lifeline as I know it is for many others!
I am glad you had a fab time in the US with your son and your parents.
I am glad you made new memories.
Sorry that he had to contact you!
Lets hope you being there made him feel rotten!
Bye for now.
I hope your jet lag is not too bad.

Good Afternoon all.
I hope you are having a good day.
We have some sun here. I hope you have some too.
I am really down today to put it bluntly crap seems to be hitting me from all directions and I am worn out xx

Hello Hush Smile How are you doing? I'm sorry to hear that you feel so down. Is there anyone at all you can call to get out the house and go for a coffee? X

Tattieboggle · 28/06/2016 15:21

Husha is there anything we can help you with?

Hushabyemountain98 · 28/06/2016 16:12

Hi Pisco and Tattie,

Thank you I just felt swamped.
I went and collected the majority of my sons stuff from his place last night and I seem to have stuff everywhere. I saw my DH in Europe with the OW yesterday living the high life whilst I am here doing all this moving, coping with the garden, the house, the dogs and a divorce. I feel so exhausted.
Sorry to whinge on again and thanks for listening.
I hope you are both okay? I hope you are enjoying your holiday Tattie?
Thanks again xx

ThankGodItsThursday · 28/06/2016 16:47

Oh Hush I know exactly how you feel. It all seems so unfair doesn't it?
This is the place for having a whinge so don't worry about that!
I've got my first pilates class in an hour and yesterday a friend I hadn't spoken to for over a year called about something completely random so I told her what had happened. She's popping round tomorrow for a coffee. Not sure whether it's just to get all the gossip but it will still be good to have an adult to talk to.
Also got my first face to face counselling session on Thursday afternoon - will have to see if that helps at all. I know you find it useful Hush.
As an aside - his email is still logged in on one of our tablets at home. I tried to delete it but can only do that by deleting the email address itself. Don't want to do that just yet so I occasionally look at his emails (awful I know but so what). He's ordered a shirt which is being modelled by a model in his very early 20's and that must be the target age range. I snorted when I saw it. What is he playing at Grin

Hushabyemountain98 · 28/06/2016 19:24

Hi ThankGod.
It does seem so unfair!
I hope you enjoyed your Pilates class. I am sure it will do you good physically and socially.
I hope you enjoy having coffee with your friend tomorrow. It will be good to talk.
I hope your first face to face counselling session on Thursday goes well. I am sure it will. I find it really helps. I have mine tomorrow.
These men think they are something else don't they. I expect if an older woman wore something designed for a twenty year old they would call her some names!
I have cleared a few boxes and thrown some of the stuff out.
I have had enough for today. I am going to the cinema with my neighbour later.
Have a nice evening xx

Back to work for me today after paying for my son to go on holiday , whilst he gave him 200 dollars , looking after my dd dog who makes me smile a lot , sorry hush you are feeling down its still a roller coaster isn't it , I think only time will heal us 😢 son leaving again tomorrow , what's the song all by myself 😢 time to get down to studying and re evaluating myself to date and reflect again on my current life , or I may just keep winging it 🙈

PiscoSour66 · 29/06/2016 10:09

Good morning all.
Hush I hope you enjoyed the film last night and all the treats! I hope you feel a little less down today. All this rain is not helping, perhaps we can send some Tattie's way!
That's so kind of you Kirk to take your son on holiday. He will remember this. Keep up your studies, I don't have to tell you how important this will be to you.
Enjoy meeting your friend ThankGod, hopefully if you 'click' again if might lead to other things. People can be very kind and understanding.
Have a good day everyone xxxx

Hobbitwife001 · 29/06/2016 10:24

Hi everyone, just popped in to see how things are going for the"hushies" .
Now, hush my love, please don't look on fakebook, I know it's hard not to, but you are never going to see anything good, it's all false anyway, shiny pretence, he's a narcissist and has no empathy for you or your sons, it's just pathetic attention seeking.

I had to laugh at your post, thank , my friends and I call it the "Superdry effect" , where middle aged men decide they're going to dress like teenagers, and squeeze their pot belly's into inappropriate, too tight clothing just to prove how "young and trendy " they are to the OW.

Getting a weird haircut is next, so watch out for that soon....

PiscoSour66 · 29/06/2016 10:33

Hello lovely Hobbit. I hope you are very well and life is treating you good.
There was a thread on here where the bloke started wearing dungarees, I think they were calling him Super Mario. Still gives me a chuckle! X

Hobbitwife001 · 29/06/2016 10:59

Hhaaaahhhhhaaaaa... pisco my love, I remember that, that was hilarious.
I just want you all to know is does get better, I am happy, I've reached the Mecca of "meh" where my ex and his flooze are concerned, I got a good settlement for myself and my sons.

I know some of you are still in the hell of the first throes of this awful process, it is life changing, and takes a long time to come to terms with.

But, it does end, and I just wanted to pop up and reaffirm that, lots of love to you all, xx

Hushabyemountain98 · 29/06/2016 12:16

Hi Kirk,

I have just come back from seeing my counsellor so I am feeling a bit drained after dealing with all these emotions!
I hope that work goes well today after your holiday.
Sorry your son is leaving tomorrow. Hopefully he will be back again soon.
I hope you will be able to keep your mind busy with your studies?
As everyone assures me we will get through this and have good happy lives.
Onwards and Upwards. A bit of sun would help. More rain today!
Glad I cut the grass yesterday.
Have a good day and keep your chin up☀️🌧😛xx

Good afternoon Pisco,

Just back from seeing my counsellor. Feeling tired. Just having a cup of tea and doing things on my iPad before getting on. Sound familiar?
Enjoyed the film and the goodies last night. Feeling less down today thank you.
I think Tattie would like some sun too!

I hope you are having a good day?

xx

Hi Hobbit,
It is good to hear from you on here.
I know I am not supposed to look at FakeBook!
It is so hard though! I still say 'how can he be like it?'
Have been to see my Counsellor this morning which has helped. Still plenty of tears though. You would have thought I would be all cried out by now!
We really need the weather to buck up!
I hope you are okay?
Better get some housework done!
Take care xx

OP posts:
PiscoSour66 · 29/06/2016 12:55

Yep, sounds very familiar! I'm doing the same x

Hushabyemountain98 · 29/06/2016 13:02

How exciting are we!😜xx

madamehooch · 29/06/2016 18:40

Hi all. Don't know about you but I'm nearly six months into this and am still looking for my silver lining! My DH is still very much part of our lives and cares for us but seems quite happy to retreat to his man cave. Part of me thinks i'm being a mug but I believe deep down that he loves us in his way. Is that enough though? I don't know. It's still a day to day thing. Very tiring though.

The teen regression did make me laugh though. My DH is viewed as a legend with my Dd's friends and uses more teen speak on text than she does!

WTAFF · 29/06/2016 19:10

Hello everyone! I'm just back from holiday today. I had a lovely time.

I'm really sorry that you've been having a tough time recently Hush. Do you think a holiday might help you? I always find some physical distance in a nice, new environment helps me.

I second what others say about Facebook. I don't think the majority of posts accurately reflect the reality of their lives!

Definitely keep the thread going!

Xx Smile

Hushabyemountain98 · 29/06/2016 19:48

Hi madame,

I hope you find your silver lining!
People can give you support and advise but it is your life and you must do what you feel is right for you and your daughter.
It must be very confusing and tiring for you?
I am six months in too but my situation is different to yours. There is no caring for me!
I just hope that it works out well for all of us whatever scenario we hope for!
Take care xx
