Hi ladies , sorry things don't seem to be improving for most of you. There msut be a corner to turn soon, there really must
MLS it shows what an idiot he is being if even his best mate can't support him.
Sugarplum hope the op goes well will be keeping my fingers crossed, let us know.
Ginnedup well done you on the smoking front
PC hopefully it will be new life with the new house, i hope so you and dd deserve it.
Mcd i really don't know how you are getting through this ,there has to be some let up for you soon, surely. Dad not being around is nothing to do with you, you only need to see how fab a job all these mums on here are doing your dc's will be fine.

Hello everyone. Do you mind if I join you? I have spoken to some of you before. H has left now following me finding out about his affair. I am hoping we can work things out but this is going to be a long drawn out process. And for the moment i am on my own.

Ok good weekend
went to a very old very dear friends wedding yesterday - just me and DD ..
She is 46 1st marriage - she is a wonderful person and has had some really truly shit relationships - her new husband is a lovely lovely man who adores her and treats her soooo well - not a dry eye in the church including the bride had to keep telling DD they were HAPPY tears - she has seen so many sad tears this last year.
Nayway I had a lovely day despite not drinking (PG)....and I realised a few things
(1) I am fine without (D)H - in fact I was relieved he wasn't there making me feel awkward, embaressed, sad, hurt, resentful etc etc - I had a good time without him - I didn't miss him and didn't even feel tearful at a few of our "old" songs didn't look at couples and wish he was there
(2) there ARE some good men out there - the groom is a lovely man honest fun loyal and he treats my friend so well - he looks at her like she is his world (AND she is a bit overweight and he clearly could care less )...still and they have been together 5 years
(3) it isn't your fault if you DP cheats on you - the grooms exW cheated on him when she was pregnant with their DTs , he stuck around for years because of the DC but eventually he could't live with it and left - I can't imagine what on earth he could have done to deserve it - he is a truly lovely man - so I am going to stop blaming myself for (D)H being an immature selfish shit
(4) I am going to stop torturing myself with the OW and her baby and look after myself DD and new baby

Onwards and upwards always feel better and stronger when have been away from him for a while

macdoodle · 08/07/2007 22:34

Truly truly cannot handle anymore - from one extreme to another - a year of this and no further on

katherinez · 09/07/2007 05:53

I ve just posted in lone parents. I feel so sad. I cant bear this pain. I hate being alone. I cant bear the thought of all the time I will be spending alone. I feel so scared. Please tell me it will get easier.

mylittlestar · 09/07/2007 09:01

katherinez of course you're more than welcome here - I haven't been on all weekend so will go and catch up with your thread now but reading your post on here I'm assuming you have found out he is having an affair after all
God I feel sick for you. I really hope I have read that wrong.

If I don't post for a little while on yours it's just because it's hard for me to read it with everything being so raw for me. But I will catch up now and post soon xx

Stay strong. You can get through this xx

mylittlestar · 09/07/2007 09:02

btw macd - that was a lovely post after the wedding. so positive. is everything ok?

katherinez · 09/07/2007 10:30

Thanks MLS. It must be hard for you. You are still going through it all too. I appreciate your post on my thread.

ohsmellyjelly · 09/07/2007 14:29

Hi all

Hope everyone's surviving? Haven't had chance to catch up yet but will do soon, been thinking of you all even tho haven't been on here.

Dior, MLS, PC you ok?

Jogging along here, lots of talking being done, hoping we might be making some progress. Had my best mate here last week which was great, she was determined to make me feel positive and to a certain extent it worked!

Chat soon xx

OSJ great to hear you sounding so positive. Good to hear from you.

Dior will catch up with your thread in a min xx

My head is everywhere today. Was on the motorway this morning and some woman crashed into the back of me

She wouldn't pull over. I followed her into Manchester and she still wouldn't pull over so rather than risk anything I just called the police and gave them all the details.

Doesn't look like the number plates match the make and model of car so no idea what will happen next. Waiting for police to get back to me

I can see that good luck just lurking around the corner... gotta reach it soon!!

ohsmellyjelly · 09/07/2007 14:37

OMG, MLS. you ok? Was there much damage? That's all you bloody need...

Dior · 09/07/2007 14:39

mylittlestar · 09/07/2007 14:49

I'm ok. Thank you!

There doesn't seem to be too much damage but am calling to the garage on my way home from work to get it checked out. Bit worried that there's more to it than I can see, or perhaps damage underneath that I can't see...

On the positive side I haven't thought about H all day!!

What's that saying, it never rains but it pours!! I think that I am getting my share of bad luck all in one go so that when the good luck starts again it'll be so much better!

sallysparrow · 09/07/2007 19:56

Hi MLS - thats awful! Ive had that happen to me, and the sound of the car being hit really scares me. And i really really hate hit and run drivers. Hope you got enough details for the police to get them, but it wouldnt surprise me if they were uninsured or something.

Thats all you need with everything else going on.

Hi to everyone else by the way!

LilyLoo · 09/07/2007 20:05

i'm good Dior thanks am now nearly 15 weeks so getting over the sick feeling. Will try to catch up now.
MLS as long as you ok that's the main thing, that happened to my dp and it turned out it was dodgy plates and had no insurance, either way you loose out, bloody typical !
Mcd waht a lovely , inspiring post about the wedding, where are all them men who would come along and cherish you all ? They must be out there
Katherine , hi i will try and catch up with your thread. Although it's good to see a new face, the contents of this thread often mean there is heartache to every new person on here. Wishing you much support and strength to get through the next few weeks.
OSJ gald you making some progress

ohsmellyjelly · 09/07/2007 20:59

Thanks Lily and congrats on your pg!
It's so much better when the sickness wears off isn't it!!

Paddlechick666 · 12/07/2007 19:17

evening all, clearly i've got some catching up to do.

the trip to sweden was nice, if challenging!

but, more importantly, i spent this arvo at the hospital with Sugar and her ds who had his op today.

just had a text to say he's out of surgery and they got a good reading from the implant. they'll know more tomorrow i guess.

was great to meet her and she is lovely, not to mention a fab mum.

will catch up with the thread properly later i think!

ohsmellyjelly · 12/07/2007 20:38

Pc not been on much lately either.. hope all is well and you had a good time. Having internet probs so may not be on but hope to catch you on MSN for a chat.

mylittlestar · 13/07/2007 08:41

hi pc

so glad you managed to be there for sugar, that was a really lovely thing for you to do.
have been thinking about her a lot

I will text her today and see how things are

How are you doing?

And how are you osj?

Dumbledior · 13/07/2007 09:36

Hi guys. Hope you are all ok.

mylittlestar · 13/07/2007 09:49

Just heard from sugar.

Ds is doing ok. He's sleeping now but she is hoping he will be allowed to go home later today.

PC apparently you were a star! Sugar said how grateful she was that you were there for her.

MN can be amazing at times. PC you did a really special thing yesterday.

Sugar I hope everything is ok and give us an update when you can xx

Dumbledior · 13/07/2007 12:27

PC is fab anyway, but I agree that the power of MN can really amaze me sometimes. We might moan occasionally, but friends made on here are REAL.
