Emotional

Feeling tearful tonight, I think it's because I feel so alone, and my attempts at a relationship always seem no good for one reason or another,

Feeling a little low.......

Awww Sleepless, you're not alone, you have lots of friends on here! You know my virtual Garden - search my blogs to find out more - you can always go in there in yor imagination, it's lovely and peaceful, and it's got a lovely Cabin with soft sofas and bed, a log fire, lots of lovely things to eat and drink! In fact, if you blog that you're going in "The Garden" you migth find people join you there, so you can chat and have a bit of fun

i live alone, hun, it can be hard, but it does have it's rewards. You're responsible to/for nobody, nobody can tell you what to do, when they want to eat, go to bed, get up etc etc - and NOBODY nicks the TV remote!

Big hugs, hun

Love

Rose

Hi Sleepless,

Totally get where you're coming from. I seem to have been single forever and really can't see how the situation will change. It gets me down sometimes too.

Glad you came on here to chat. It really helps to know we're not the only ones feeling like this.

Hope you feel better soon.

Love

Hi Lizard,

Yes it's difficult, because of my anxieties I probably don't go out as much as most, and therefore less chance of meeting someone.

My friends say they don't understand why I'm single, the fact is I am, sometimes it doesn't bother me, but today it is...

I hope you meet someone soon, they do say it happens when you least expect it

Love Sue x

Being in a relationship is not all its cracked up to be...... Ive just walked away from a lovely guy but cos he had no balls to stand up to his inappropriate interfering mother........

I always think its me too........ so I beat myself up but I think its better to be on your own than take crap off someone!!

Hi ya Kerry,

Thank you for your response. I get what your saying, and agree, I went out with a guy some time ago for 7 years whose mother was a nightmare, I ended up falling out of love with him as he had no balls to stand up to her, I think it's learnt behaviour their mums rule the roost and they don't want to upset them , it's sooooooo annoying I know...

I didn't want to be bothered having a relationship after that for about a year, but been single now, over 4 yrs and met a few guys but been messed around, it just seems such a long time to be on my own now....it's great to have people like you on here to chat to, and who understand,

I cant see myself having a relationship for a long time.... and Im 48 but to be honest, I dont care at the minute, I want to concentrate on making myself happy instead of looking for someone else to do it..... Relationships in my experience are about how much crap your willing to put up with to be with someone.... never good that!!

Its a shame everyone is so far apart, we could have formed a support/social group for like minded people..... then im sure you wouldnt feel so alone...

Hope you feel a little more positive today....

Luv Ker xx

Hiya,

Yes the support group sounds good, it is a shame,

I think I am so alone with this and yes it would help to be with like minded people.

Thanks Kerry

Hi Anne,

It's good to see you being so positive after your breakup, I read your previous post.

I am 65 now and haven't been in a relationship for 10 years. I am lucky that I have a good support network of family and friends and I enjoy my life and have got used to living by myself, except for the anxiety issue.

Would be good to have had social group.

Good luck to you sleepless we are all different in our needs. You and Anne are only young yet and who knows what is round the corner.

Regards Eunice xx

Hello you,I have been single now for 9 years,yes,been busy bringing up my Son and not really thought about it much.When I have given it some thought,I say to myself "what about the baggage,will my Son like her,will I like her kids,will her ex be a problem",that usually does it for me.As I have said before,too much thinking time is not good when we have issues.The way I see it is,if we are single,then a partner is one less concern,many partners struggle to understand anxiety,why would they.So,lets concentrate on sorting out this anxiety and not worry about getting loved up,take care.
