[ArriettyCArriettyC]

hello - I was sadly dumped yesterday. Anyone else in the early days of this and wants to check in for support?

I'm in same position,2 weeks into separation,I kicked him out,I'm here if you want to chat x

Kicked mine out yesterday finally

Well I was ghosted 2 weeks ago. It’s pretty horrendous but I’m getting back to myself everyday. Stay strong ladies 🤗

thank you for the replies. I know we've all been through it before .. but it doesn't hurt less, does it? I am trying to comfort myself with the fact that it is positive and life-affirming to have these feelings of sadness, as it shows I can deeply love .... who am i kidding ? :(

Hi,
4 weeks to the day since my wife put the grenade under our 22 year marriage and family. Since then she has been back and forth between the other person and the family home like a yo-yo , but not for reasons of uncertainty or reconciliation...just because the law says she can. Very very difficult to handle but just trying to deal with each day as it comes. The hurt and sense of loneliness is still unbearable but you just have to keep on going somehow. Lockdown has reduced practical support networks but keep in touch with friends and family by whatever means you can ... you’ll need them more than ever.

It's so sad that so many people are in this situation,my story is horrible but I suppose I should've expected it,He is a horrible person with no feelings at all x

Just coming up 2 months since I walked out of his house and blocked him. It's been really tough, still is but heightened with lockdown.

I"m so sorry, all of you. Can you think of some things that have helped you through it? It is much harder with lockdown as you say, as there is little to distract us. I was dumped only yesterday, and am just going through it and through it in my mind, wishing I had done things differently so he would love me :(.
I have been obsessively checking if he is active on Whatsapp, goodness knows why - seems utterly pointless, but somehow it feels like contact. We used to message each over so much throughout the day.

I don’t know if the OP has children but my boys (18 and 21) have been great with an arm round me when I’ve been beside myself with grief, anguish ..and anger. They’re old enough to understand what has happened and where Mum has gone but they’re still my kids and ensuring they have as stable a life as possible in the family home (food in the cupboards, regular meals, spending time together, washing, ironing, getting them to recognise their responsibilities as young adults) has certainly proved a distraction and given purpose to my days. Basically trying to not let life crumble around me. And please believe me, I don’t feel strong or in control but what alternative is there?
