Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Hey there, I have been going through some serious depression. I had a guy contact me after 30 years. He was someone really special to me. We started talking and things were great. Then covid hit, he ilives in another state away from me.i think he has a girlfriend now who hit me up last week, telling me she wants me to know that she knows.
I thought, who are you and what do you know. Needless to say I guess he has been seeing her through this covid, told me she was not his girlfriend.
He apologized for the miscommunication and told me that he wanted to stay in contact with me and he would do the same.
Now he is distant but wants to stay in contact with me, I've written to him a couple of times but he has not responded to me.
I am crushed but really would love to keep him in my life.
I feel sad because I am a good person and know that I deserve better, but can't seem to stop thinking about him. He is constantly on my mind.
Any comments? I feel so bad.

I'm horrified! I knew my insurance would go up due to getting a new car but I didn't expect it to go up over $2,000. I did have an accident with the snow/ice in the winter. I was just telling my brother that I have had my car since March 2, 2026 and have only spent $75 on an oil change. Now this! I called another insurance company and their quote was over $4,000. I guess I have to pay...

Best of luck though and I really hope things get better for you soon! <3
Just forget about it. If he contacts you again, be strong and tell him you've got enough on your plate at the moment, and just move on. It ain't worth it.
What kind of guy would do this to you and her.
I'm sorry that you feel so bad, but at least you are
away from him. This other woman is still dealing with his
cheating ways. Sounds like a ++++++++
Just so you know that during those 30 years we have thought of each other, I knew he was married and respected him and his privacy.
He has been divorced for some time now.
For the past two years we have been communicating. I understand what you are telling me about me being leftovers. Reality sucks, this has never happened to me before
This man is a highly known individual in the art field. Im just bummed that he clammed up and he should have never contacted me in the first place,but he did out of the blue.
He really got my hopes up,he knows that.
I am not so trusting now knowing that people can be so unfeeling about many things. Actually it has affected me deeply, I am working through this the best I can.
I appreciate your words.
I won't say any more.
It might be best to take a little break from any new guys for now, until things are finalized and over with your other situation. Otherwise, feelings can get all muddled. Working on yourself right now would be a wonderful gift to give yourself. You need some ME time. Discover who you are now. It's tempting to live in the past, I know. I have done it, too. Usually doesn't work out. People change, we all have changed. Best wishes.
Yes that was me and yes he does know about my relationship. I am going to take your advice and more. Its been nice to be able to speak and to be heard.
Life has been so challenging, thank you for your reply. Getting feedback has been very helpful. Everyone has been so kind and I appreciate that, really so very much.
We all need someone to care, it makes a difference. Thank you.
I have been doing better with this issue since everyone has been helpful.
I have not been contacting this individual, but he has sent me a nice note and a photo.
I am just staying in the background as there is so much more going on inmy life atthis time.
Thank you to all who have given me advice as I am doingmuch better.
