Lonely afternoon.....

Im seating at home waiting for my children and the loneliness and emptiness of the house is so overwhelming.  I miss my stbx so much.  I'm not begging or holdig out hope that things will change but I can't deny that I miss him terribly.  I know things we'll get better but right now the mix of emotions and the future is depressing.  Haven't feel like this in a while and I don't like it - need to keep myself together!!!

We\'ve all been there hun. You\'re smart enough to know that it will get better and you\'re right it will. Try and give yourself some time to do things for you. Getting out and about when you can will help, even a walk on a nice day gives you a boost. Take care and I hope it get\'s better soon for you x

Sending you hugs. I can imagine how tough it is without the kids there. Is there anything that you love doing that would be fulfilling and help take your mind off of the emptiness? (reading, scrapbooking, throwing darts at a picture of stbx taped to a dartboard...lol)

I know it will get better - I want a lot more than what he has to offer - but silly me just want to talk to him so bad!!!
@ Peyton- you are hilarious!!!! Maybe the throwing darts will make me feel better!!!

We all understand. I feel the same way. Being on here helps you know that you are not alone, yet it kills me to know that anyone has to feel what I feel. Hugs to you!

I would suggest a project that you can do, a bit at a time, called, healing me. You set up a place of calm, comfort, peace, tranquility, and serenity. If it is outside, you clear the space and make it special, if it\'s inside, the same. That way, when you need to sit, grieve for the loss of the relationship, you are treating it special for your self. I like the dartboard idea, however, what I did instead was put a picture on a board, placed it outside, threw a lot of water balloons at it. Hugs to you!
