"this status is constantly changing along with my moods!!"

stuck in the middle! Mood
Thursday, June 4, 2009

today, my sis and her bf split up, theyre both coming to me with different causes for the split. but i do not take sides. but it does seem like the guy has had this planned for a while and knew exactly what he was going to do. but the worst part about it is they wouldnt talk to each other about it. they seemed to go to everyone else.

 

one thing i have learned during my stage of recovery of depression is not to hide things from your partner because this just causes strain on the relationship. me and my partner sat down the other night and had a damn good talk and he now knows everything and now i know everything how he is feeling. since then things have changed, he now helps me more, he is taking the kids to different kids groups and he's spending time with us all.

 

he is learning not to snap at me everytime i snap at him after all i do need a punchbag but with words to get all of my anger and sadness out, and it does make me feel a bit better.

 

i am changing and so is he for the best and we are trying our hardest to make our relationship work, after all we have been together for 5 yrs and have 3 kids together, we both know how it feels growing up with a split up familly and wouldnt want to put our kids thru the same thing.

 

the end of the day, my sis has a child who has been badly affected by all of this and he doesnt deserve it at his age. all he has ever seen is his mum getting hurt and men coming and going just as he gets happy, then to just have it all ripped away from him again.

 

anyway going to end this here xx
