Marriage is almost over. Need to be alone with my thoughts. How.

Name changed.

Marriage is practically over. I have no energy to fight any more. All I want to do is be is alone with my thoughts. But we have the awkward problem of one house, one car etc.

I asked him to go to his parents, but he won't. I don't have anywhere to go.

I really need some space.

How do people cope when relationships break down and you still have to live under one roof?

I desperately need to be alone with my thoughts. But I don't know how to do it.

Aww, it is only 3 hours and about 10 years of your life fighting the West London traffic! A piece of cake! (Oh yes, there is cake too!)

i'm sure you're doing fine paperchain......and take DG up on her offer and try and make arrangements to go and stay with her. i wasn't sure about going to stay with friends when i was in your situation but it was exactly what i needed. i do understand though that it's not always that easy to arrange......
and phone your therapist....i'm sure under the circumstances she would be absolutely fine about it.

i wish i could come and give you a real hug but a virtual one will have to suffice.....

I've just seen your other thread and I'm sorry I had missed the fact that your DH is unwell as well as the difficulties you are having.
Gosh, what a terribly hard situation to be in. So many things all tangled in together. No wonder you need some space.

I think most carers have some respite time don't they. It seems like you are just exhausted with it all. I'm so sorry.
